In the last week of December I decided to consume fewer carbs each day, as low as 30 grams. I also started drinking my morning coffee black. I had been using generous amounts of heavy cream. I also did a 24-hour fast from dinner 12/31 to dinner 1/1. I intend to do one 24-hour fast each week.
Since then I’ve needed to dial down my basal rates with total daily basal insulin dropping from 20.8 units down to 14.1 units.
My dietary changes seem very small to explain that large effect. My control, except for time low, has been my best yet. Once I find my match for basal needs I expect my time low to fall below my 5% goal. With 0% low yesterday, it looks like I’m nearing that match.
It’s been an interesting start of the new year.
