I have come to the conclusion that trying to control this will drive me mad, and just doing my best will work out fine.
your right theres just too many factors, and i just dont feel like thinking about them.
so maybe what im thinking is just test 4 hours after meals, instead of 2, to make sure i came down to my range eventually, and to be able to make a correction right then and there |
I would still check at 2 hours. If your 2 hour BG is 400, then you're going to need a correction and it might get worse by hour 4. Just don't let it drive you insane when the 2 hour number is out of range, unless it's very high. Checking at 2 hours, plus hour 3 or 4, will show you how different foods work for you. You might find some that just aren't worth eating anymore due to the aggravation of spikes, or a delayed rise in BG hours later. I always check at 2 hours and 3 hours and often at hour 4.
I'd just hate to go really high and not know for 4 hours.
