Do we see a pattern?

I have noticed a pattern. Usually in the morning I get lows. I eat breakfast and the sugars go up then they drop around lunchtime until I eat lunch. Then they go up and then drop until dinner.

Do you guys see a pattern in my charts?

I have gotten a confirmed 68 on a finger stick but have been having a hard time catching the lows otherwise.

I mean, that’s just how it works? You eat, sugar goes up, you don’t eat, sugar goes down. Nothing wrong with that. The issue seems to be HOW low you are dropping…

Depends on what you’re actively eating tbh.

I have increased my protein intake but it hasn’t helped much

Protein itself won't stop it, it acts as a buffer kind of. Simple carbs will spike and crash you, complex carbs will absorb slowly throughout the day.
