[QUOTE="lovinglife, post: 2637877, member: 22428"] Everyone even none diabetics can peak as high as 11 in the first 2 hours depending on how many carbs are consumed, the difference is the people without diabetes drop into much lower numbers by the 2 hours, people with T2 don’t have this drop and can stay higher for longer, that’s what makes us T2 diabetics . For me it’s the 2 hours after first bite that matter, a rise of no more than 2, the same as, or lower is what I’m looking for. If I get a rise of 3 or more it’s either a no more of that meal or I may test again at 2hrs.30 minutes to see if I’ve dropped back to acceptable level and if I have I adjust my portion size next time and test again, if I get same results as before then it’s definitely off the table [/QUOTE]
