[QUOTE="ElkBond, post: 1431273, member: 270837"] Ooo feb 2016! Same as me :) Yer you will often rise a bit after eating, thats where the GI comes in handy. Low GI meals I go for 10-20 mins pre bolus (i like it to dip a bit on the CGM before the food rises it) and my personal goals are never getting more than a 7.8 spike. This is often the case with a few annoying meals hitting 8, and once on holiday hitting 11 (which put me in a very nice mood). These are tight goals but I had a spare transmitter and sensor (one week left of life on the G5) so My partner wore it for the week. She spiked to 7.8 a few times with meals so that was my aiming point. Annoyingly it hit 7.8 and then proceeded to come down and level off nicely - envious :( I recommend Think like a pancreas, I was told to read t by numerous people, and while most topics are often spoke of on the forum there was plenty left to scrub up on.
