Overall, my blood sugars are still in a good, healthy range. It just takes more insulin to cover the same amount of carbohydrate now. Obviously, I can't fight these increasing requirements, which would be futile. However, I am choosing to eat less carbs at a time, so I can most accurately bolus for meals and snacks, and avoid having to pump in huge amounts of insulin.

 

If anyone has any low-carb snack ideas, please share them! Lately, my favorites include celery and peanut butter, cottage cheese, pistachios, bell peppers with hummus dip, and dry roasted almonds.
