Hi Everyone, It was such a pleasure walking you through the power of using a CGM. You just spent the last 2 weeks seeing your body in real time using your Freestyle Libre And that’s something most people never experience. What you’ve likely noticed: → Your glucose doesn’t just respond to food→ It responds to stress, sleep, timing, movement, and even your thoughts → The same meal can give you different results on different days → Small shifts (like walking after a meal or eating protein first) can make a big difference → “Eating less” or skipping meals doesn’t always help… and often backfires! The biggest takeaway from this reset: This isn’t about perfection. It’s about awareness, experimentation and personalization Because there is no one “perfect diet”. There is only what works best for your body. What I hope you’re walking away with: ✔ A better understanding of your hunger, energy, and cravings ✔ Awareness of what spikes you (and what doesn’t) ✔ Tools to flatten your curves in real life ✔ Confidence to experiment instead of guess And also this… (the honest part) For many of you, your numbers probably looked “pretty good” overall. But here’s what I want you to know: ... “Good” is not the same as optimal And the real magic is in the subtle patterns: - Slight elevations after meals - Gradual rises through the day - Differences between similar foods - The impact of stress and under-fuelling That’s where we move from tracking to optimizing So what’s next? If you want to take this further, the next step is making this data personal. Because two people can have similar graphs…and need completely different strategies. This is where a 1:1 review comes in We take your data and connect it to: - your meals - your lifestyle - your goals (energy, weight, hormones, performance) And build something that actually fits your life. If you’re ready for that next step, I encourage you to schedule a 30 min glucose review where we can dig even deeper and personalize.

How are you managing without your visible monitor? Interested to hear!

Well this was a bit surprising! But it speaks to glucose/insulin optimization. Our goal. The birthday girl requested McD’s…. She loves the chicken nuggets and how you can “suck the juice out of them” 😬. I had a McChicken and “some of her fries”. The line stayed steady…. I waited…. Still steady. It wasn’t until today that I realized I had eaten some homemade chicken an hour before the birthday meal. That probably helped. (I don’t think I will go back to experiment without the pre load… until next year!). The mag is clear: PRE LOAD your social meals and celebrations 😜

Well this am I had one piece of toast with one Tbsp peanut butter, a strawberry Activia yogurt cup with 1 Tbsp hemp hearts and coffee with cream. But my sensor stopped working. 4 days left. Can I still replace it? I felt a little shaky so suspect my blood sugar rose quite quickly.

Same cake. Completely different metabolic response. The strategy is about what you consume BEFORE the sweet. Day 1: amino acids (protein), pumpkin seeds (fibre, fat, protein), inositol (a nutrient that supports glucose-insulin sensitivity) BEFORE cake. You can see a more stable line and less of a rise at 3pm. I stayed below 7. Day 2: Just cake at 3pm. I rose above 8. We are learning that when eating sugar on its own, your blood sugar rises fast…casing surge of insulin and then a crash or dip. But when you pre-load with protein, fats, or fiber, you slow that entire process down. → less spike→ less crash→ better energy→ fewer cravings Simple strategy: Before something sweet, try:• protein (eggs, yogurt, amino acids)• healthy fats (nuts, seeds)• fiber (flax, veggies) Try this and share your results. ***Also of note was this was a “healthier cake” made with almond flour, cacao and natural sugars. I’m sure my rise would have been higher in both graphs if it was a traditional cake. Bobette and Belle, here I come!
