craziest thing happening with my sugar
Hi teio,
I'm also currently on optifast and diabetic. I did exactly what you did. I cut my insulin (long lasting and rapid) by half then kept cutting by half when my sugar was below 6 twice in a row. I was then currently taking 4 units long lasting morning and night and 2 units fast acting. My sugars were fine for two days then began to go up. Now it's 9.9 average. Called the nurse and she said that's fine. There is no high number it just has to be above 6.
I was not happy with that so I'm giving myself now 5 units each shake.
Each Centre is different so see what your Centre says.

Thank you everyone for your help and support.
I woke up with sugar of 6.7 which is amazing for me.
I guess the first day was my body getting used to it all.
I am already losing water weight. I have stop getting on the scale though. lol
I am trying to eat/drink on a schedule.
Things are good.
Once again, thank you for all your support and hallelujah for sugar free jello.
