Blood sugar cannot be used to diagnose diabetes after eating. It is tested while fasting (at least twelve hours with nothing to eat except water.) Diabetes is diagnosed if fasting blood sugar is higher than 126.
Non-diabetics can have blood sugars higher than 126 after eating which is why testing must be done while fasting.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

One of the tests used to diagnose diabetes is the Glucose Tolerance test. The person being tested goes in after fasting. Their blood sugar is taken and then they're given a sugary drink. Their blood sugar is tested a couple of times over a few hour period. After 2hours if gluclose levels are 200 or more you're diabetic. If glucose rises above 200 within that two hour period and/or is between 140-199 two hours after the drink, you're considered prediabetic. What does this have to do with your question? I'd say that at least the professionals believe your glucose should not be above 200 within one hour if ingesting 75 grams of pure sugar and should be less than 140 after two hours. For that reason I would say the answer to your question is no higher than 200 one hour after eating something similar to 75 grams of sugar. I'm sure if more carbs, or sugar, is ingested that glucose levels could go somewhat higher, but still, after two hours it should be back down to normal, or below 140. However, my experience, I haven't seen anyone who isn't diabetic higher than say 150 and usually not even out of the 90's even after eating very sugary things.

For a healthy person blood sugars could raise no higher than 200mg/dl after a meal and return to normal gradually within 2 hours as the pancreas produces the necessary insulin.

The more sugar and starches you eat (bad carbohydrates), the greater the rise in blood glucose and therefore the greater the stimulation of insulin production. Susceptible people who eat bad (or unhealthy carbs) may shoot their blood glucose way up. This creates an increase of insulin from the pancreas, which can then cause the glucose level to plummet(drop quickly). This can cause dizziness, heart palpitations, sweating, nausea, shock, or even death. Severe drops in glucose levels over several years can cause brain damage.

technically it should be less than 126 even for a non diabetic! good luck
