Well,
You might not have a balanced enough diet. You might have diabetes. If you already know you do, then like I said, you probably don't have a balanced enough diet.

Well, I really need more information to answer that question, but what you're describing could be the normal pattern for people after eating. After each meal blood sugar rises (especially if the meal contained a lot of simple carbohydrates), sometimes quite a bit, then falls off within an hour or two as insulin is realesed to allow transport into cells.
Now, I'm going to guess that you're diabetic if you're checking your fingersticks to know that your sugar is rising and falling, in which case I would need to know something about the levels and what medications you're on to make an intelligent response.

If you are testing first thing in the morning it means you have already seen your doctor and know you are diabetic. A high reading on the first test of the day usually means that you had a low during the night and your blood sugar has rebounded too high. Go ahead and have your breakfast but today is not a day for a lot of carbs so have some Eggbeaters. One thing you can do is if you wake up in the night check your sugar then. You might be waking up because you are low. Be sure to test at least 2 or 3 more times today and see if your sugar comes down with food and activity. Keep a diary of your readings and bring it with you to your next check-up so that if you are consistently having night-time lows your doctor can adjust your medication.

The primary reason for a rapid rise and lowering of blood sugar in a diabetic is that the food eaten is mostly quickly digested sugars and carbohydrates (starches). If you eat an apple, for instance, there is sugar in that food, but it takes a little longer to digest than, say, a teaspoon of honey, or a candy bar.
You need to get with your doctor about your question. Perhaps you need to have a dietitian to counsel you on your meal planning.
Basically, a diabetic should avoid rapidly digested foods in the sugar and starch category. Try to eat whole grain breads, rather than white bread. If you have rice, go for brown rice rather than white rice. Potatoes should be eaten with the skins on or avoided, especially when little else is taken with that meal...potatoes with chopped broccoli and cheese, for instance, would take longer to get digested and into your blood stream than mashed potatoes and gravy. Try to include a raw vegetable salad with every lunch and dinner meal. That, eaten with a portion of lean meat, and some cooked vegetables will take awhile to digest. Your blood sugar will go up more slowly and stay there for a longer period of time as the food is being digested.
Another possible reason for a rapid rise and lowering of blood sugar is medication. All the more reason to eat foods not too rapidly absorbed. Because the medication is working to lower the blood sugar, whole foods need to be concentrated upon to slow the digestion.
Still another reason for rapid rise and lowering of blood sugar is exercise. Exercise causes the body to call on sugars for the muscles to have energy. That puts the sugar into the blood stream, for transportation to the muscles.
There are many books about the diabetic way of life covering the reasons given herein. Your library or the WEB can show you the way more than these few hints. Diabetes is a serious disease. Get the help you need as soon as possible. I was diagnosed about two years ago, and there are still many things I don't know. I am always watching my blood sugar and diet. I've read a lot of good books. And I've learned which foods to avoid and which to eat relatively freely. High or low blood sugar is a warning. Your doctor should be your first point of information. But don't neglect to educate yourself about proper eating and exercise. Hope this helps a little. JTand RA

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.
