Two hour post meal (prandial) readings

I respect my doctor for his medical knowledge but he told me to test a few times a week to save money on strips. I have a high decuctible HSA. Even when I went to my CDE she didn’t stress testing 2 hours after meals. It wasn’t until I joined several D forums that I realised how many times I should be testing. I was told by my CDE to be 140-180, 2 hrs after a meal. I did that for 2 years, thinking 180 was fine. I have now dropped my carbs to 50-75 a day to stay under 140 after meals. My original CDE wanted me to eat over 200 c a day. No wonder my numbers never changed. I’m glad you’re fighing back. Thank you
