Your blood glucose levels are up and down all the time but, in normally healthy people, are regulated and stay within limits. There are a large number of these homeostatic processes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_homeostasis
Type 2 diabetes is like having a thermostat which works fine when it switches on, but sometimes when the temperature rises, it doesn't switch off.
