My ping looks bigger, but it cracked me up that we both had pink pumps.
Diane boluses after meals. I bolus before. I was wondering if there is any advantage to bolusing afterward? Do any of you bolus after?
I was taught to test, bolus, eat. I just found it interesting that Diane does it differently. Either way, it was neat spending time with someone else who speaks my language. Carb counting with friends is the best way to go.
I think it depends on how quickly our bodies process our food and insulin. I bolus about 20 minutes before eating, otherwise I always spike high. But I know people with gastroparesis who bolus after they eat because it takes their bodies a long time to digest what they've eaten.
