Tricky Diabetic or Honeymoon?

I am taking just 8units of Levemir with dinner, and upon waking will be around 108-140. But when I eat my BS now stays up too long, about 4 hours it takes to come back down to 140 or lower. Sometimes wont go under 180. One unit of Novolog takes me down 280pts over 5 hours! I assume when I eat I am still producing some insulin, which is why I cannot take even one unit of Novolog. How can I start to split my dose of Levemir, or should I just add a few units in the morning? 10carbs in the morning is too low, 15-20 too high! What the heck are my options besides being hungry all day. I have also lost 7lbs the last 2months by simply not eating enough to keep under 180. ???Suggestions??
