You need to see an endocrinologist .
Do not listen to others giving you medical advice about food, exercise and how to treat YOUR diabetes.
Even a doctor would not treat you from reading a few sentences.
Good luck.

302 is way too high and not okay, you are probably not taking the proper meds and you also most likely had too many carbs at breakfast. a fasting level of 169 is also too high, you need to get your levels under control with a doctors help or you are headed for some serious problems health wise, diabetes is very serious and damaging when not controlled.

Its nothing to worry about your sugar level even its high. Diabetic cannot be from one week ago. You may just come to know one week ago. So the best treatment is to start exercising and having some diet program.
So please try to eat low cholesterol, low fat food for few weeks.

I also just diagnose my diabetes 1 month ago. And my fasting sugar was 208, and after 2.30 hrs of lunch, it was 249. But now my sugar level is in normal level in this one month without any medication. I just exercise 1hr, 6 days a week and I control my diet. Even my A1c test comes 10.4. So doctor was really surprise. But now I am in under control by my daily exercise and diet.

So my suggestion is just start exercising without any second thinking. Just walking is also good. And if your BMI is more then 25, please try to reduce below 25. You can control your sugar level before its too late. So first consult your doctor, test A1c, and also consult Nutritian.

You certainly are diabetic. You did not say if you are under doctor’s care. You should start out on Medicine. Metformin..is the best.
Exercise is a must. 30 min. to 1 hour 5 to 7 days a week. Walking is fine..

You must get on a Low Glycemic Diet. Here is website for Glycemic Index:http://www.mendosa.com/gilists.htm

I am on 2000 mg. metformin and 3 mg. Amaryl. Plus 500 mcg. Mecobalamin(a special vitamin B 12 ) My fasting glucose is 110 to 117

Good luck

All of those levels are too high. Ask to be referred to a Diabetes Specialist to help you figure out a testing/eating/medication/exercise plan. Be sure to show them the label on the herbal you are taking, so that any carbs. in it can be counted in your eating plan
