Your blood sugars rise overnight because you're not doing any activity. During the day even if you're not exercising you're typing or turning the page in a book or whatever and that all burns a certain amount of carbs. At night even though you're not completely stationary you use a lot less carbs than when you're awake. Maddie's insulin rate at night is almost double what it is during the day to compensate for this.

And congratulations on the weight loss!
