Post-meal sugar levels of 160 to 180 suggest that your diabetes control may need adjustment. Some diabetes medicines can support weight reduction, but the choice depends on your overall health and kidney function. Weight gain may also be related to diet and physical inactivity. Discuss with your doctor about reviewing your treatment plan and lifestyle to improve sugar control and weight.
