Also I am not exercising enough :/ | If during a basal test you ranged from 80-140 during that test then you definitely failed the test in my opinion. You should not move more than 10 mg/dl up or down during a basal test, I think some allow you 20 mg/dl.
As for the exercise, that's going to have nothing to do with how well your levels are. That will actually throw another mix into the mess you seem to have since you have to cut your basals back (or eat more) before you exercise and you need to maybe keep them lower depending on the type of exercise you do. If one does strength exercise then their muscles are more actively working during the 12-24 hours after the exercise has stopped, so that may change your BG during that period.
