[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1596219, member: 85785"] Testing like you are is erratic and only a snapshot of how high your blood glucose levels are at that time. To get the best value and worth out of your strips, it has to be regimented and recorded in a food diary. Depending on what stage you are at, the prediabetic stage should be finding out which foods make you spike so high, so you test pre meal, then two hours later after first bite. If your meal is above 2mmols above pre meal, then a part of the meal is not good for your blood glucose levels. And either reduced in portion size or not eaten at all. It is usually the carbs and sugars in that meal. Only by this method will you gain good control and avoidance of diabetes later on. Hopefully you have already started reducing your carbs and portion size. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
