Message: <blockquote data-quote="Peppergirl" data-source="post: 1556490" data-attributes="member: 330374">I have this issue as I low carb too. When I eat meals with small carbs (bit of cauli or bran crackers so no more than 15g carbs), protein and high fat (cheese/fatty meat like lamb) I split bolus before and then another 4 hours after the meal as my BG will start to increase. I also found that late evening/early morning my BG will start to rise again so I bolus then too. It always happens when I eat meals with high fat (tends to be big meals too). When I eat fish/veg/salad of an evening, no such issues. Basal is fine so it's the fat and protein + liver starts to kick off in the early morning. I eat hotdogs sometimes too which have deceptive carbs. I've found some frankfurters with have a 'trace' of carbs. Not really eating sausages either due to carb content. The extra meat you ate may be a factor in the BG increase. Also I was surprised at the amount of carbs in avocado...</blockquote>
