150 lbs and fat? I highly doubt you are fat at all. Now back to the problem at hand.

Would you do me a favor and we can see where we go from there.....

For 2 days do nothing but test and record it. If you need a very useful spreadsheet I can email you one in excel. Really, all I'm looking for is the time you test, what the reading is, when you give insulin, how much, etc. Record 2 days worth of your life as a diabetic and then either post on here or PM/email it to me. Then I can see if there is some pattern that you are missing.

You are far from a bad diabetic. Keep your head up high and you will get over this small hill.

As for the taking too much there's no such thing. I personally think my basal rate on my pump (equivalent to lantus on MDI) is too much but yet it works out perfect for me. Actually, the past few weeks my morning numbers have been nothing short of perfect and I have no idea how it's happening. I think only twice in the past two weeks I've been above 150 waking. You may think great for me, but if you looked at my past you'll realize it's a huge improvement.

We can do this, stay strong.

Diabetes is an Art, NOT a Science. You must master the control by skills and not by knowledge alone.
