Many people think cabs are the enemy… But in this case? 👉 It wasn’t the pizza that hit hardest. It was the cappuccino ☕️ Liquid carbs on a less-buffered system = ⚡️ faster spike ⚡️ sharper rise ⚡️ more of a crash after Did the pizza still cause a spike? 👉 Yes. But here’s the difference: ✨ It was slower ✨ It was more controlled ✨ It didn’t create the same sharp rise and drop Why? Because I didn’t eat it alone. Before the pizza, I had: ✔️ Protein ✔️ Fiber (I love arugula salad and pumpkin seeds) ✔️ Fermented foods (sauerkraut) ✔️ Healthy fats (olive oil) → This created a metabolic buffer 🧠 The real lesson: It’s not about no spike ❌ 👉 It’s about a better spike And that comes down to: what you eat first. 💥 Try this: Before carbs → Have a few bites of protein, fiber, or fat first. Even 5–10 minutes can change your response. Want to see what YOUR body does in real time? Want to see my response to JUST pizza? We are gearing up for Monday, April 20th! Pizza welcome!

Is the Freestyle 2 recommended because of 3 being constant Bluetooth streaming? Sounds convenient but do try to avoid that kind of exposure to constant Bluetooth. 👌🏻

Crew… this is your captain speaking 👩‍⚕️✨ We are officially in pre-launch mode for THE REAL TIME RESET, and let me tell you… I’ve had my CGM on for the past week and I’ve been watching the data roll in while "experimenting". I am always amazed by the human body and technology. Think of this like our own version of the Artemis II mission…Except instead of heading to the moon… 👉 We’re exploring your metabolism, your energy and your real-time glucose patterns. And here’s the truth: What you think is happening in your body…and what is actually happening… …are often two very different things. From a glass of wine, to a few bites of chocolate, to carb loading splurges... there's a STRATEGY to enjoying it all. Your body has a story to tell, and starting April 20th, you get to SEE it. WE get to see it TOGETHER for greater impact! ✨ This isn’t about restriction ✨ This isn’t about perfection ✨ This IS about awareness → insight → power Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing some of my own behind-the-scenes data (yes… even the surprises 😅) to get you warmed up. Because once you see it…you can’t unsee it. And that’s where the magic begins. 👩‍🚀 Your mission (should you choose to accept it): Arrive curious, stay open, get ready to experiment! We are about to turn your body into your greatest teacher. 🚀 Launch date: April 20th Let’s go.

It’s happening 🙌 I just put a CGM back on — and on April 20, I’m inviting you to put one on with me. Welcome to The Real-Time Reset — a free, guided 2-week experience where you’ll go through 10 simple experiments and see, in real time, how your body responds to food, movement, stress, and sleep. This group is where everything will live — your experiments, guides, updates, and conversation along the way. The full course will open closer to April 20 so everything is ready for day one. If you’re new here, welcome. If you’ve been here a while, I’m so glad you’re still here. Before we begin, there’s just one thing to do now: get your CGM sensor. The FreeStyle Libre 2 is the one I recommend, although the Libre 3 works too. You can find one at most pharmacies or Costco. Just don’t put it on yet — we’ll all be applying ours together on April 20. More details and a full setup guide are coming soon. For now, drop a comment below and let me know you’re here 👋 — Tara

I’m noticing my blood sugar rises from about 5.5 to 6.5 between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m., and then increases another 0.5 to 1.0 in the first couple of hours after I wake up. I’ve found that avoiding breakfast foods like fruit and cereal — and instead eating eggs, meat, and vegetables — helps keep my levels more stable. About an hour later, I can eat fruit without causing a spike.
