Glucose Reading Before Lunch: 97 Yay! Forgot to test this morning. No sweet potatoes or apples for me today. Salad w/chicken for lunch and probably dinner, too. I'll add some blueberries in Greek yogurt tomorrow and see how that affects my blood sugar. Oh, I am trying a raspberry vinegar in my salad today, so I guess I'd better check my bs an hour after lunch.
One hour after lunch glucose: 120. Must be the raspberry vinegar. Darn it!
Just read the following on
http://diabetesupdate.blogspot.com/2007/11/when-to-test-blood-sugar-in-type-2.html One hour after eating: under 140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/l)
Two hours after eating: under 120 mg/dl (6.7 mmol/l)
If you can do better than this, go for it. Normal people rarely go over 120 mg/dl ever and are usually under 100 mg/dl at 2 hours after eating.I guess a 120 reading an hour after eating is acceptable.
