[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2039610"] There are a few ways I deal with it depending on what's going on at the time - carb counting to make sure I have the correct dose ... or as close as possible - pre-bolus - take my dose 15 to 30 minutes before I eat. The time depends on what I am eating (more sugary food needs longer per bolus), how much exercise I have done (if I have just come home form the gym, my BG may be falling so I don't pre-bolus much) and, recently, the insulin I am taking (NovoRapid is much slower for me than Fiasp) - eat lower carb meals. If I eat less carbs, this reduces the spike. - don't worry. I don't expect perfection, I know people without diabetes also spike after eating and worrying increases my BG so I try to remember to have a balance in life and not become obsessed to have my BG in range all the time.
