So we arrived home from Holiday today and it was my other half's first day with a glucose meter, and combined with the MySugr app it's already helped a lot !

We managed to get a first reading today of 6.7mmol , that was early afternoon when she'd had a double cheeseburger (minus the bread) for lunch and a pepperami as a snack on the drive home.

Before dinner this evening, we got a reading of 6.4mmol , and 1.5 hours after dinner (Which was 2x fish in butter sauce and some cabbage , as well as another one of those burgers without a bun) we got a reading of 6.5 , so well pleased with that.

We've read that the levels before a meal should be between 4-7 and after a meal no more than 8.5
Also that a single meal should not raise the blood sugar more that 2 points, so to get a raise of just .1 after a meal and another cheeky burger, I'm chuffed for her :)
