Fasting sugar (126 mg/dl) and post breakfast (229 mg/dl) indicate diabetes, as per ADA criteria. You should visit a doctor to confirm diagnosis and start treatment. Choose allopathy for quicker sugar control, but diet and lifestyle changes are key in all systems. Follow a low carb, high fiber diet, and include 30 mins walk daily.
