| What you should be looking at is your blood sugars after you eat. They are a MUCH more important indicator of blood sugar health.
Fasting blood sugar stays around where yours is for years while blood sugars get dangerously high after meals. By the time your fasting blood sugar is seriously whacked, so are your beta cells (the little guys who secrete insulin.) So don't ignore early warning signs!
If you are seeing blood sugars over 140 mg/dl 2 or 3 hours after eating, yes, that is prediabetes and you want to intervene as soon as possible to keep them from destroying your health.
Cutting way back on your carbohydrate intake is usually the first step. It will do the most to return you to normal functioning. Cut out all unnecessary starches and sugars.
