Here it is again with some fixes and also reading the input data so
its all self contained:

library(ggplot2)
library(gridExtra)

Lines <- "date time BG test_strip
4/3/13 19:20  105     Aviva-491350
4/4/13 21:03   74      Aviva-491350
4/6/13 17:40   81      Aviva-491640
4/6/13 17:40   82      Aviva-491350
4/6/13 22:48   106     Aviva-491640
4/6/13 22:48   102     Aviva-491350
4/7/13 5:32    87      Aviva-491350
4/7/13 5:32    103     Aviva-491640"

DF <- read.table(text = Lines, header = TRUE)

DF2 <- transform(DF,
   datetime = as.POSIXct(paste(date, time), format = "%m/%d/%y %H:%M"),
   lower = ifelse(BG < 100, BG - 15, BG * 0.85),
   upper = ifelse(BG < 100, BG + 15, BG * 1.15))

ggplot(DF2, aes(datetime, BG)) +
   geom_point() +
   geom_line() +
   geom_smooth(aes(ymin = lower, ymax = upper), stat = "identity") +
   geom_linerange(aes(ymin = lower, ymax = upper)) +
   annotation_custom(tableGrob(DF2, gp = gpar(cex = 0.5)), ymin = 120) +
   coord_cartesian(ylim = c(60, 150)) +
   xlab("") +
   ylab("Blood Glucose") +
   ggtitle("Blood Glucose Levels")
