The way it seems to me is that your spike in BG just happens earlier then the spike in insulin. Why not just take the insulin earlier? If you take it right before you eat, try 10 minutes before that. It's especially easy if you eat your bagel every day, figure it out once and you are good forever. I find that for certain type of food I need to inject after I eat and for others about 10 minutes before, it all depends on the carb type and the individual way your system process the food and insulin.

I wouldn't go for the "low carb" option. I refuse to let the disease control me more then I have to and I think that adjusting the insulin to whatever you want is better then adjusting what you eat. Maybe it's just me.

Goodluck fixing this.
