This is for changejobs:

Your 1 hr reading is slightly out of range. When I had my GTTs done 145 was the cut off.
This website gives interpretations of glucose tests for you to look at:

I think you should have a fasting INSULIN done as well. I think it will be elevated, and show you may have insulin resistance.
In any case I think you might be prediabetic...and the first step would be getting rid of sugar, and following a Zone type diet, or those designed for metabolic syndrome. These diets limit carbs, eliminate sugar, and encourage protein and good fats.
Watching this video about the dangers of fructose is also important:

If you are drinking alcohol, now is the time to really cut back or quit.
