Zoe replied to anexco's discussion 'Breakfast mystery: advise wanted'"I think that makes a lot of sense, anexco! Question: If you wake up and you are high do you do a correction, or do you add in a correction to your bolus to account for being high? If you start out high before the meal it's harder to end up in a…"

anexco replied to anexco's discussion 'Breakfast mystery: advise wanted'"Wouldn't those things show up in the nutrition label or do they not fall under the category energy/carbs ?"
anexco replied to anexco's discussion 'Breakfast mystery: advise wanted'"Thanks for all the replies. i'm strangely comforted knowing breakfast is a mystery to many of us (or make that 'diabetes').
I actually always thought morning-carb-sensitivity and DP were the same...
About the calculations: i've…"
Zoe replied to anexco's discussion 'Breakfast mystery: advise wanted'"I actually think DP and morning carb sensitivity are two different things. I don't have DP at all; in other words, if I put off eating my blood sugar won't continue to climb. I think you are absolutely right that some carbs is necessary to…"

But the reason that I think it is important to get your ratios right is that it can give you a more flexible lifestyle. Since I have my basal (like long acting) insulin set right, then if I don't feel like eating, then I don't need to. I am not on a fixed schedule.
Here is a website with much of the same information as is available in the book. Hope that this helps!
