Re-designated my diet as Paleo again. After ~6 weeks of Jonathan Bailor's SANE diet, I decided that it falls under the Paleo umbrella. May as well align with the Paleo folks since we're basically on the same page.

Basal insulin requirements continue to drop. Yesterday I didn't require a bolus until supper at 8:30pm. So I went without bolus insulin for 24hrs. Interesting. After a night of BGs in the 70's and 80's (per CGM) at 4AM this morning I got a rise in BG that I assume was Dawn Phenomenon. I treated with several boluses over the morning and fasted 'til noon, at which time it was back into the 80's and I had lunch. We'll see what happens this afternoon.

Weight has been well controlled in the low 170's and body fat in the 14% range. With high energy and endurance, I'm good to go. I'll keep everything the same and see how my blood tests come out later this month/early next month. This way of eating is very easy to follow and I can't see a problem maintaining it for life.
