Breakfast (8:30): 126 BS, Lunch (12:00): 95 BS, Snack (3:15) 190 BS, Dinner (7:15) 197 BS, and now (10:00pm) 159. Sooooo....I really don't know what made me high after lunch...the ham? Dinner I can understand b/c of the dip. You're right, I'm not drinking much water. 16 oz coffee and 2 bottles of H2o.
Your carb count looks like this..
BK - 2 eggs 1.8 carbs
BK- 1 sausage patty 1 carb ( guessing)

Lunch- frozen meal 11 carbs
Lunch- 2 slices of ham 2 carbs ( guessing could be more)
Lunch- cheese stick 1 carb

Snack- 1 egg .8 carbs
Snack- sausage patty 1 carb
Snack- veggies 2 carb (guessing could be more)
Snack- dip 6 carbs 2 servings (guessing since you said way to much)

Dinner- steak 0 carbs
Dinner- salad 3 carbs
Total for the day.. 29.6 carbs..

Ok.. you say you are doing a very strick induction.
1. Nuts are not on induction.
2. Is the sour cream dip pre packaged? If so it has carbs and sugar.
3. Did you count the carbs in the sausage?
4. Frozen meal? on induction? chicken and spinach shouldnt be 11 g of carbs unless it has sugar in it.
4. slices of ham? did you count the carbs in the ham and cheese?

I am on a insluin pump and have not raised my basal rates only dropped them. I would say you need to look at your diet and look for hidden carbs and sugar.
