[QUOTE="AdamJames, post: 1673134, member: 459333"] I think this is going to be the main graph that I post here when I do updates. It shows the most important info at a glance. For the solid red and blue "target" lines I've used data from a study re what is "normal" blood glucose here: [URL]https://www.diabetes-symposium.org/index.php?menu=view&id=322[/URL] The blue line is the average morning bg for a non-diabetic, and the red line is what their bg was 2 hours after breakfast. Breakfast was, I think, whatever they want, so not the most useful comparison there! I may do the same graph but instead of using the averages from that study, I'll use the worst-cases, i.e. highest numbers the normal people got, which is probably a more realistic target to aim for. Might as well start with a high standard though! The blue squares are my morning bgs, which I'll be taking every morning. The red diamonds are my 2 hour postprandial bgs after the morning shake, which I'll take probably every Sunday. I've taken one today, but only did 1 fingerprick reading so it won't be as accurate as future readings. The idea is, at a glance, I can see: 1) Is my morning reading going down towards the normal range? 2) Is my 2hr postprandial reading going down towards the normal range? 3) Is my 2 hr postprandial rise decreasing? If the gap between the blue squares and the red diamonds narrows, then my metabolism may be improving. If it gets as narrow as the gap between the blue and red solid lines, then that's a very good sign indeed. If that ever happens, I'll start looking at 1 hour postprandials instead.
