Going to attempt to make lowish carb gooseberry fool to eat after lunch tomorrow, making the fruit puree sweetened with erythritol today so it can cool, then adding greek yoghurt and double cream tomorrow.

I’m still learning... my evening bloods are 4.4 should I take my bolus ?

If it’s bolus I’d be wary

If it’s basal (long lasting) then probably yes

It’s a tough one to call so if unsure then maybe not inject

Sorry yes it was the basal. I’ve had a biscuit then took it in the last week I’ve had several hypos and despite being on it for over a year I’m only 8 weeks into lchf and I’m learning so much
