Are these levels reasonable

[AnnieC]

My husband is just diagnosed with type 2 and does not need to loose weight.doctor said he probably developed T2 because he takes prednisolone for poymyligia I have started him on a reduced carb diet...cutting out the starchy carbs and sugar stuff the same as I do as I am prediabetic...Last night our meal was a grilled pork fillet with swiss chard, french beans and baked butternut squash followed by cherry and strawberry tart ..no pastry just a ground almond base and xylitol sweetner served with double cream ......his level before the meal was 6.7 and 2 hours after 7.8

7.8 is ok and as you may know is within recommendations
High Blood Glucose and Type 2 Diabetes
Your diabetes is well controlled when your blood glucose levels are in the normal range between 3.5 – 8mmol/L.
High blood glucose levels are readings over 8mmol/L before meals, over 10mmol/L after meals or an HbA1c over 7%. When your blood glucose levels are high: • You may not experience symptoms until blood glucose levels are mostly above 15mmol/L. However, even levels above 8mmol/L can cause damage. • Occasional high blood glucose levels may occur and this is not usually a problem. Your risk of developing
diabetes complications depends on your average blood glucose level, as shown by your HbA1c level.
