[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1678871"] As you say, it depends. Not only on your current BG level (which you would definitely need to correct with insulin if it is too high) but many people find protein causes spikes in BG if they eat no carbs. The "protein effective" is different person to person so the best thing is to eat and test. ...and if you are on a basal - bolus regime, you still need your basal insulin regardless of how many carbs you eat, or don't eat.
