glucose ranges
 
I am new and was diagnosed with type 2 on Aug 13. I have been monitoring my glucose since 9-17. Several questions:
When looking at the graph- is the green area 80-120 or 80-110? I don't really know the desired range.
Also if staying in the green area am I in desired range?
Yesterday I tested 5 times from waking until bedtime: 98,108,106,108,110. Please advise.

Welcome to the Forum! :)

The green area is about 80-120. Your numbers are very good. I try to keep my numbers around 100.

Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.
