You can certainly set the time, but I suspect your best bet would be to set up a file on your computer and write in that file whether each test occurred before or after a meal, and then print it before your next doctor's appointment.  Incidentally, my dietician tells me that if you have just eaten, you should wait about 2 hours to get a proper, accurate reading.  Otherwise, I test in the morning before having eaten anything.
