Actually, don't fool yourself, white bread (including Naan) is definitely as bad as eating table sugar, if not worse. I have every intention of avoiding complications and therefore am careful with my diet, which does not mean that I have a boring diet or a non-enjoyable one. On the contrary, I have a hugely diverse diet which I enjoy tremendously, but it's adapted to suit my own body's way of handling carbs and a good understanding of insulin dosage. I enjoy a curry as much as the rest of you, but I'd avoid the Naan and the white rice (OK I may pinch a mouthful of hubby's Naan,), I simply substitute sag-aloo made with new potatoes or Lentil Dahl. The less carbs in any meal the easier it is to control insulin doses.
It's really not hard to maintain a decent Hba1c and iron those spikes out if you just gain an understanding of how your own body handles carbohydrates and yes, to begin with this means intensive testing. My Hba1c has never been over 5.7 in 6 years, the last one was 5.3.
Northerner see this link for Novorapid profile
http://www.diabetes-support.org.uk/joomla/insulin/iprof It doesn't peak as rapidly as Apidra but the injection devices for Apidra tend to be rubbish, so with Novorapid it is possible, with a little intensive testing, to decide when it peaks for you and therefore move your injection timing forward or back to deal with different foods.
