Passing stools does not effect your sugar levels.
If you check before food that is your fasting blood sugar and if you check after food (which should be 2 hours after food) it is post prandial blood sugar.
If you are in oregano diabetic range. You need to make lifestyle and dietary modifications.
30mins walk morning and evening .
You can still control it by immediately making changes, but if you are lax it will go into diabetes range sooner .

The criteria for testing the fasting glucose level is fasting for at least 8 hours before the test. This test is usually done first thing in the morning, before there's no relation between the glucose levels and timing of passing stool.
