Don't forget, 'normal' people don't keep their BG rigidly under 100 at all times either. Give yourself a break or all that's going to happen is that you're going to break down and just jack it all away.

You really shouldn't let your blood sugar dictate when you eat. If it's a bit high then just take a bit more insulin than you usually would - that's what it's there for.

There's a reason why your insurance 'only' runs to 300 strips a month - you don't actually need any more than that. There's not even any point testing more regularly than every two hours since BG simply isn't that reactive, so you're looking at a maximum of 12 useful readings a day, and that's if you don't sleep.

I don't mean to sound harsh but with all that worrying, you're going to have a good life expectancy but not much of a life. There's frankly no point at all in controlling your BG if all you're going to do is exist.
