121 at bedtime last night. Had a very small serving of angel hair pasta, was hoping all the butter and the bacon would help counteract the carbs...oh well, it is what it is.

128 at bedtime last night. I knew it would be higher as I went to bed before my dinner had a chance to finish digesting...oh well, needed the sleep more I guess.

Extra stress over car is finally beginning to dissipate.

97 at bedtime last night.

I've figured out it takes at least 5 hours for my meal to be fully digested. I usually eat (new regimen after care facility) between 4-4:30 PM which requires me to stay up until around 10PM to get an accurate end of day reading. Not something I always feel able to do, but dang I can't eat dinner any earlier!

I would put it slightly differently. It takes you about 5 hours to get back to baseline (BG) because food continues to remain in the intestines and digestion is still going on and takes about 10-12 hours to be complete.

136 at bedtime last night. Went to bed early so never got back to baseline before test. The good thing was I slept really well.

136 at bedtime last night.

Added more carbs (trying to put on some weight) so I guess it was taking longer to get back to baseline...just couldn't stay up any longer to test later.

The baseline may also go up a little bit and that should be fine.

OK, I'll accept that, it just makes me uncomfortable being at 136. I like very low 100's or lower...oh well. I guess I have to decide if I want to add weight or keep bg lower, tough decision.

104 at bedtime last night. That's better, but I had to stay up an extra hour to get there. (9:17PM/121 then 10:18PM/104)

IMO your BG will move up and down based on so many factors that we are aware of, but mainly food and activity. So it doesn't matter if you're asleep or awake but at 'x' time you will reach 'y' BG. That you want to see that number before going to sleep is a choice and if that helps you sleep better, by all means do that.
