Hello,
It is good that you are taking care of your diet.
Keep doing regular exercises.
Must do some aerobic exercise like walking
Keep your blood pressure around 120/80 mmof Hg.
At your age even if your fasting blood sugar is around 110 to 120 and post prandial sugar is around 180 ,it is considered good.
A more vigorous control of blood sugar may cause repeated attacks of hypoglycemia.
Thanks
