New BG meter, what is the post meal target?

Sugarcube2021 · Mar 23, 2021

So i received my new Tee2 BG monitor this morning. My reading was 6.2mmol before lunch and then 8.8mmol 2hrs after lunch. This strikes me as v high. However the guide says the target for T2 Diabites is 8.5mmol after meals?

Do i need to try stick to max 7mmol to achieve my target goal hbA1C of appprox 42?

Hi @Sugarcube2021,

Generally, the recommendation is to limit the rise two hours after a meal to 2 mmol, so you a little bit over this target with 8.8 mmol (instead a maximum of 8.2 mmol).

Would you mind telling us what you had for lunch?

Once I was seeing 8mmol/l after eating I stuck to the same meals and gradually my numbers drifted down to below 7 - presumably my metabolism recovered with time and less stress.
