Post-prandial glucose numbers

Posted by evittan @evittan, Jun 18, 2019

Lately after some meals my glucose numbers rise to 185-194. They go back down after a couple of hours. How long do I monitor this before doing something about it?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Diabetes & Endocrine System Support Group.

Good to hear that you will get back to exercise, @evittan. When we are trying to keep from developing Diabetes exercise is an important factor.

What exercise do you enjoy, @evittan?

@evittan @hopeful33250 Exercise is so important, they are saying now that it helps your brain too, not just your body, and that leading a sedentary life is as bad for you as smoking. I went too many years being too sedentary and too overweight. I am glad I have changed that and so are my husband, son, and daughter. My son and daughter and I all have Apple watches and share our activities. Yesterday when I got done with a workout at the gym I got a "that's the ticket" message from my son! The last few weeks I have not exercised much due to some other circumstances but I am getting back to it now.
