Sorry if this has been asked before, but all my searching refers to where your BS should be 2 hours post eating. If the goal is a rise of no more than 2.0 mmol/l between the first bite and 2 hours post eating, what about the time in between? In other words, are we worried about the peak or the point in time 2 hours post?
For example, if I just used my meter, I could eat a bowl of pasta and go from 6.5 at first bite to 8.5 two hours later....which would seem acceptable, except that my Libre would show that I spiked to 15.0 during that time.
My gut tells me I should be trying to manage both the peak of the spike as well as the reading after 2 hours?
