You are taking basal bolts regimen, which is considered the most physiological way to take insulin. The insulin dose needs to be adjusted till you reach your target glucose, ie, FBS 100, PP 140. Sometimes insulin injection technique may be wrong wherein insulin may not be reaching your circulation
Next Steps
Change injection site. Monitor sugars regularly and scale up the dose as needed. Newer medications like SGLT2 inhibitors May help

For any diabetic patient to control his sugars most important thing is diet and exercise. So first ensure about lifestyle changes. Using only short acting insulin( Novo rapid) will not control the sugar unless it is used with long acting insulin. So with these two things in mind we can control sugars much better
Next Steps
Need to change insulin consult endocrinologist
Health Tips
Need to look out for any infection which can cause uncontrolled sugar
