[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1255064, member: 240838"] That's what I've read. Some people eat something before their feet hit the floor. I don't but I do eat 15-20 min after my bolus. I get up, co e down stairs, test, inject and wait my 20 min. I found it very odd that I need less insulin if I eat than if I don't. Figuring out mornings and BF seem to be the hardest for most of us. Our hormones are waking up and raising us and then we need to eat to shut that down but then our food is raising us. My BF is by far the smallest meal of the day and the only carb is a small piece of Bibb lettuce. The rest is fat and a small amount of protein. It's still not perfect but the best I've found. Most of us are most insulin resistant in the morning. I take the same amount of insulin with all meals but even with BF being the smallest I often need a small correction a few hours later. Lunch and dinner I eat 3x the food and stay steady. I also can't just bolus bigger at one time or I go low then pop way up. Does that help? [/QUOTE]
