[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2059367, member: 480869"] Before eating and around 2hrs after starting the meal. You want rise of no more than 2mmol ideally and hopefully less. More means you haven’t process the amounts of carbs you ate efficiently so that quantity will need adjusting next time you eat the meal or if it’s bad not eat that food anymore. These changes (ie small differences in before and after) can happen pretty quickly with good food choices. In a perfect world a highest reading at the 2hr mark would be no more than 7.8mmol but many members like less once they have things in hand. It can take some time so don’t panic if it takes longer for the overall levels to come down. A fasting reading first thing is the other time people check. This is often the last reading to come into line and reach desirable levels, maybe even a year or more in some cases. For now I’d do a few of these so you know where you are starting from but focus more on getting the food right. These fasting readings will follow in time. [/QUOTE]
