6.9 but I was very bold a good few hours ago so I'm coming down for what for me is a high.

Thumbs down Please don't think I'm bad

I did something stupid and I'm 281 or 15.6. That's a 2.4 unit correction for me, thank you. I had a cheeseburger and chocolate shake for lunch. I got to go out to lunch with my DH and splurged. I should have checked 2 hr PP. But I really enjoyed every last bite so I don't really care. Every once in a while it is worth it.

Wink Late Night.

I have had a late night and woken up to 10.0 /180 So four or five hours later than I normally rise out of bed. I normally have a 6 / 108 in mornings but I was late also the so called 24 hour insulin is not what I call a long lasting insulin.

So an early night for me.

Uh...mine is 380. I'm a type 1 who started on insulin two days ago. It has gone down from the 500's as of last Friday. When I woke up it was 150. I've been eating right--guess this takes time?

I woke up at 373 this morning - pod malfunction. I changed pods and bolused, but does anyone have any tricks for making the "fast" acting insulin work faster? I feel horrible right now.

Yes. And, if you've been runnning high for awhile, even 150 can make you feel hypo. (Just read the transcript of one of Dr. Bernstein's teleconferences yesterday, and he addressed exactly this issue.)
