Free Printable Blood Sugar Log Sheet

What this log includes

Each row has five fields: Date (with optional pre-fill), Time of the reading, Reading (the blood glucose value from your meter), an optional Before / After Meal column, and a free-text Notes field for any other context you want to capture. You can choose 10–30 rows per sheet and turn Large Print on or off to suit your preference.

How to use this blood sugar log

1. Choose your settings — select how many rows you want, turn on Before/After Meal if relevant, and optionally pre-fill dates.
2. Print the sheet — click the Print button or press Ctrl+P (⌘+P on Mac). Select your paper size in the print dialog.
3. Fill it in after each reading — write the value and time in the appropriate row. Include the meal context if that information is useful for your record.
4. Use the Notes column — note anything that might be useful context, such as physical activity, a missed meal, or feeling unwell.
5. Bring it to your appointment — hand your care team a complete written record rather than trying to recall values from memory.

Practical tips

• Keep the log sheet next to your meter so you can fill it in immediately after each reading — it takes only a few seconds.
• If you test at the same times each day, pre-filling the dates saves time and keeps the sheet tidy.
• Clip completed sheets together by month so you have an organised record ready for appointments.
• Print several copies at once so you always have a fresh sheet available.

Frequently asked questions

What columns are on the blood sugar log sheet?

Each row includes: Date, Time, Reading (your blood glucose value), an optional Before/After Meal column, and a Notes field. The consistent format makes it straightforward to review a week or month of entries with your care team.

Is there a large-print blood sugar log?

Yes. Large Print is on by default, giving you bigger text and taller rows — easier to write in and easier to read back. Toggle it off in the settings for a more compact layout.

What is the Before/After Meal column for?

It gives you space to note whether a reading was taken before eating, after eating, or at another time — for example at bedtime. This context can be useful information to share with your provider. You can turn the column off if you prefer a simpler layout.

Can I pre-fill dates on the log?

Yes. Turn on 'Pre-fill dates' and choose a starting date — the sheet will label each row for you so you only need to write in the time and reading each day.

Is this log medical advice or a medical device?

No. This is a blank paper form for recording values — the same kind of written log a clinic might hand you. It does not calculate averages, flag results, or tell you what values are normal or abnormal. Always follow your healthcare provider's guidance.
