1st time checking my BG- GD question

I just got my monitor today and checked my BG 1hr after dinner.  It was 128- the nutritionist said 130 is high.  So should I take this as passing or is it too close to the cut off.  I am just confused b/c my 1hr test, etc have all been borderline as well- I wish my BG was just either obviously high or obviously low!

 Thanks!!!

    Its an absolute cut-off, less than 130 you're in the clear :)  Don't worry about it being close, you'll make yourself crazy!  Generally, you need 80% of your values in the good range to avoid diet changes/meds.  Hope that helps!!

    you want to try as hard as possible for below 120... I sometimes get 140 and i just review what i just ate and make sure i alter it.

    It takes time to figure out what your body does not like.
