[QUOTE="scotteric, post: 1768687, member: 453103"] Cereal is extremely difficult to eat, especially in the morning when you are more insulin resistant and your liver is releasing glucose at an enormous rate (the "dawn phenomenon"). Also, it looks like you eat foods that are not only high carb but high in fat and protein as well. These are the toughest to dose for because they will drive you high right after eating them, and keep you high for hours after. They usually require multiple doses of insulin and normal carb counting with one dose before eating won't work. Plus you are probably experiencing dawn phenomenon in the middle of the night which, combined with high fat/protein meals that are digesting all night long, is all causing you to wake up sky high.
