I've been checking my blood sugar at home with a glucometer, and I got 99 before eating. Then, 2 hours after having lunchwhich was mainly a maida wrap, chocolate cake, and ice creamit shot up to 151, and 3 hours later, it was 148. Is this something I should be worried about?

Your current readings are slightly higher than normal but not alarmingly high. However, its important to monitor your blood sugar over time, especially after consuming foods high in refined sugars. If these numbers become more consistent, it's worth discussing with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues like insulin resistance or pre-diabetes.
