Hi

I have just checked my levels three hours after a low carb lunch and they are currently 13.4. Normally I would correct with 2 or 3 units of humalog, but I shall be working out in an hour and that is guaranteed to drop me. As an experiment I am going to skip the correction just this once and see if I can avoid the later hypo.

I'm interested in what other people do in this situation?

Thanks
K
