[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1441426, member: 219467"] Excellent.. what most of us do is test before eating then maybe one and two hours afterwards to see what effect the meal has had on your blood sugars. You're aiming to get a less than 2 mmol/l rise after 2 hours. if it goes up more than 2 then something in that meal (usually carbs) doesn't agree with you. So if you're already avoiding the worst carbs like bread, pasta, sugar anything starchy root veg then you should be ok with the less than 2 rise. We're here to help so if you have any questions just ask although maybe try searching in the search box at the top first as most things may have been asked already. but we don't mind answering twice...We also often measure first thing in the morning when we get up for our FBG (fasting blood glucose) level.This is quite a good way to monitor your overall control. Although due to something called the dawn phenomenon it may be one of the higher daily readings. [/QUOTE]
