    I'm not on insulin but mine is about 70 minutes after a meal after that it's on the way down.

    Peak-time determination of post-meal glucose excursions in insulin-treated diabetic patients


    To best assess peak postprandial glucose levels, the optimal time for blood glucose monitoring is about 1h and 15min after the start of the meal, albeit with wide interpatient variability. Nevertheless, 80% of post-meal blood glucose peaks were observed at less than 90min after the start of the meal.

    No idea as I don't really test, which I should really as I know I'm about to get a shock on the 11th with hb1 results Sad

    Had 3 colds in the run up to the tests, I know I was running in the 15's during at least one of the colds, I was heavily in denial, so maybe I'll start testing again lol

    Totally depends on what I eat Graham to be honest. My target is to be around pre-meal reading approx 2hrs after eating but only a guide.
