[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1349615, member: 211504"] Your basal insulin should have almost nothing to do with what and when you eat. In a perfect world, your basal insulin would allow you to stay at a specific number for the entire day if you didn't eat. It is your bolus insulin that counters the food you eat and/or helps you correct for high blood sugars. Honestly, I'm not convinced that you need to take your basal insulin at EXACTLY the same time every day. I take mine usually somewhere between 7-9 in the evening and have no issues as long as I take it at some point within that time window. [/QUOTE]
