[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1673173, member: 196960"] You definitely have it perfected. Any sign of hypos, reduce and reassess? Some may suggest if you dropped the bread you'd need less insulin. As long as you have plenty of options to replace the bread with. This is for life so I feel your plan is an excellent one and one day you may try no bread when nothing else is helping, maybe. Its always nice to have those options in times of highly stressful times in life. Remember the liver and its stored up glucogen is what's released in stress, alongside adrenalin. More stressed more glucogen stored. More need for insulin. I know all the mechanics but for me its having a clear head to put them back in place and keeping the perfect routine. I think you have managed that thou. Well done. I look to follow in your footsteps, even thou I remember advising you on the outstart on how I was achieving the reduction of my insulin units. Since Halloween I've had a not so low carb eating routine nor liver blocks and even thou my basal has reduced my bolus took the brunt of the extra carbs. I've took my time to get things back available (money and low carb foods) so I'm improving my routine daily, at mo. I'd love to get low units needed again. I was on humulin m3 but now on toujeo300 and novarapid. I feel its a lot harder on separates but once I'd reduced separates where the only way forward for me as I need more basal than bolus when eating very very little. [/QUOTE]
