Could possibly have a different effect at 5pm, for some reason our insulin resistance is at its worst in the morning and improves later in the day.Generally though once you have tested meal on several occasions, maybe at different times throughout the day and found it to be acceptable. You are not going to learn anything new by continually testing that meal, it would just be a waste of test strips.After a while you will have pretty much tested everything you are likely eat, and will have a good idea what your food is going to do to your levels.I very rarely test now, I will occasionally test all my meals for a week, maybe once every couple of months, just to make sure nothing has changed.</blockquote>
