Some people use these goals for themselves, others do not. It is each person's choice. I like for my after meal numbers to be no higher than 140. Most of the time my after meal numbers are around 100-120. Once in a while they are higher than 140, but I don't worry about it. (Worrying will only cause stress, which will cause numbers to go up.) My educator did not give me the numbers for 1 hr after a meal. I always test 2 hrs after a meal. I only do the fasting maybe once a week because it is always below 100. Time Goal Pre-meal 80-120 mg/dl 1 hr after meal 160-180 mg/dl 2 hrs after meal 140-160 mg/dl Bedtime 100-140 mg HbA1c <7% Eunice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
