Hi! If your morning blood test is fasting, it is slightly too high for a non-diabetic person, in a non diabetic it shouldn't rise above 100 ideally. 244 after eating is certainly far too high for a non-diabetic, that indicates that your body is definitely struggling with the simple sugars, such as those found in fruits, etc. My guess would be that you are certainly borderline or pre-diabetic, if not diabetic.
The best thing that you can do is see your GP for a glucose tolerance test, which will tell the doctor immediately if you are diabetic or not.
Also, you mention you are on a weight loss diet, it sounds as if your sugars are definitely too high for a calorie controlled program.
Definitely see your doctor, and he or she can also advise you on the most suitable diet, both to help your sugar control and to assist weight loss.
Good luck, I hope everything goes well for you.
To really know if you have diabetes is to take your blood sugar 2 hours after eating. If its elevated then you should be concerned.
A fasting blood sugar of 111-143 i would say is of concern... 143 being the part that concerns me just a little... I would definately talk to the doctor about it, as there are test he can do to accurately diagnose you with or without diabetes. In the meantime I would watch what you eat (you already are) and exercise a little if possible... good luck...
Is your morning blood sugar done when you wake up and before eating? If so, then the 143 is a bit high. When did you do your blood sugar after eating watermelon? If it was 2 hours or more then you need to see your doctor and be checked.
Eat NO sugar including fruit.
Soda, candy & cookies are very bad.
