Why Obsessing Over Every Reading Makes Control Worse
Spikes are part of human physiology.They are not the enemy.
What undermines progress is reacting emotionally to every glucose rise.
When spikes trigger frustration or panic:
  • Stress hormones increase
  • Blood sugar regulation worsens
  • Momentum and confidence drop
This creates a feedback loop where glucose becomes harder to manage — not easier.
Effective use of CGM data focuses on:
  • Overall patterns
  • Time spent in target ranges
  • Magnitude and duration of elevations
The goal is not perfection.The goal is progressively more time in range and smaller, faster-resolving spikes.
That requires calm interpretation, not constant reaction.
Remove emotion.Adjust inputs.Retest.Repeat.
That’s how control improves sustainably.
