But it's also quietly running a tab, and the bill comes due in time in range. A 2024 study found that people with more fear of hypoglycemia dosed their meals later, and those later doses tracked with lower time in range and more time running high.\nHere's the part that should shrink the fear: in the studies that tested pre-bolusing, the lows did not go up. Not in the big pediatric review, not in the 15-minute study. Pre-bolusing isn't more insulin, it's the same insulin at a smarter time. And in a survey of over 1,400 people with type 1, 52% said their fear of lows dropped once they felt more confident dosing. We don't bulldoze the fear. We out-confidence it.\nIn this episode:\nHow dosing late quietly lowers your time in rangeThe research showing pre-bolusing did NOT increase lowsWhy confidence, not willpower, is what shrinks the fearBuilding the safety net before you startThis Week's Challenge: Before you sit down to dinner, put fast carbs on the table, within reach. You don't have to pre-bolus yet. Just get used to the net being there.\nHelpful resources and newsletter: https://yourbestt1dyear.com\nConnect with Neil: TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@the.betes Instagram: https://instagram.com/thebetes Facebook: https://facebook.com/neilgreathouse LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/neil-greathouse-a607b912 Website: https://yourbestt1dyear.com\nBooks on Amazon: Type 1 Diabetes – One Day at a Time: https://a.co/d/6UHooWJ Type 1 Diabetes – True Stories: https://a.co/d/dfIlyI1","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/o0hXmJTfrsbPYfZKHjLJRs1Dx7iBMJisKDJZnYXjscs/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lNzFh/MDhmY2QwMjcwZTcx/NWRkZTBjNTk5YzUz/YjY2MS5QTkc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
