What doesn’t work?

Eating after you’re already full.  

 Last night after I ate my salad, I was full and content.  However, I had taken insulin for my stuffed pepper, so I ate the stuffed pepper.  Makes perfect/no sense right?  Ugh.   I should know by now to take a conservative bolus at the beginning of a meal and then to take additional afterwards if I eat more carbs than I first planned on.  I should know that, but I still seem to enjoy using the excuse that I “have” to eat more after I’m satisfied because I took insulin to cover the carbs.
