2hrs and 15min after a meal...

My glucose is 121.

Anytime, which I can count on my hand, that it's been over 100 I freak out.  Is this normal?  Will check again in an hour.  

I've been on that High Fat Low Carb diet.  But my mother is in town and after taking her to the city zoo, and doing a bunch of walking, I decided to take her to a Thai place.

It was the first time eating a carb meal in a month.  It was drunken noodles, with tomato, basil, and chicken.  

Some sites say that as long as it's under 140 im fine.  But the internet says crazy things sometimes.  I wanna hear from real people.

Oh!  Right before testing I did down an Emergen-C 1000mg Vitamin C water.  

But I doubt something like that had a huge effect on my glucose test.
