By all means aim for a tighter range on an informal basis. But don't be too hard on yourself. You're still going to be learning how to manage everything at this stage, god knows I certainly still am! As you get more used to things, then start honing in on a tighter range.From my personal experience, take it easy on setting targets so early into diagnosis. Particularly if you still have some insulin production (honeymooning). Being too restrictive early on can get very disheartening as your insulin requirements change and you don't have the tools to handle it as well as you'd like. T1DM is unfortunately a long game, and it's all too easy to get disheartened if your time in range slips away from you.</blockquote>
