Your fasting sugar levels of 120-135 suggest fair control, but there is still room for improvement. Along with regular walking, try some light resistance exercises and maintain a healthy body weight with consistent sleep patterns. Focus on reducing overall carbohydrate intake, especially in the evening, and choose high fibre foods with balanced portions at each meal. It is also advisable to check your HbA1c and discuss with your doctor whether your current medicines need adjustment for better blood sugar control.
