[QUOTE="Deleted member 527103, post: 2718505"] Insulin is the primary tool to manage Type 1 diabetes not diet. It is not unusual to spike more for breakfast. This is due to the increase in insulin resistance thanks to Dawn Phenomenon. Eating something high in protein is unlikely to change this. If your BG is spiking but returning to normal levels, you need to prebolus earlier for breakfast. If your BG is staying high, you will need to increase your insulin to carb (or protein if you are eating little or no carbs) ratio for breakfast. It common to have different prebolus times and insulin ratios at different times of the day. [/QUOTE]
