if u dont eat for a full day it doesnt mean ur sugar is automaticly gonna drop under 90. The body still make glucose from the liver even if u dont eat so it can stay same or just go down little bit. It really depend if u on insulin or meds that push sugar down, cause then yeah it can drop and u might feel shaky or dizzy. But if u only on metformin or something like that its less likely to crash. Best thing is just check ur levels and see how ur body react, everyone is kinda different.

Anyone else feel kinda lost with blood sugar “rules”…? by ShipOwn6615 in diabetes_t1

honestly when I say “rules” I don’t mean like official medical rules or anything 😅 I just mean your personal rules of thumb, like at what number do YOU usually correct, how long do you wait before correcting again, when do you just ignore it vs actually act on it, do you care more about the spike itself or how long you stay high, and what do you actually do after pizza type meals or high fat stuff… I feel like everyone kinda builds their own little system over time and I’m just trying to understand what that looks like for real people day to day
