Join me for another Pre Diabetes What I Eat In a Day, this time with the addition of my Freestyle Libre 14 day continuous glucose monitor. As someone with insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, the continuous glucose monitor has been a tool that I've used to incorporate blood sugar tests and blood sugar experiments along the way to see in real time to see how my blood sugar is reacting to the foods I eat. It has given me invaluable information about how factors like stress, sleep, and food impact my body's ability to process sugar.
In the past, I have tried to find and follow the "perfect" pre diabetes diet and insulin resistance diet like keto and low carb but... it was a disaster for both my physical and mental health. I truly believe that a "perfect" diet doesn't exist! So now I focus on balancing my blood sugar through balanced eating, and I definitely make many mistakes along the way, as you'll see in this video.
I'm sharing this video in all its ugly, honest, and messy glory. I'm not going to pretend that I eat perfectly everyday to keep my blood sugar in optimal range, because that's just not realistic and it's also very very inaccurate. You'll see in this video that I eat processed foods like... Cheez Its! Please don't judge me for being human! I truly hope this video can normalize for others out there that we are all doing the best that we can, and our best is good enough for now!
A little bit about my blood sugar journey... I was told I was insulin resistant in 2017 after a glucose tolerance test my reproductive endocrinologist ordered for me when I was having trouble getting pregnant. And after conceiving, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes very early on. Since then, I've been diligently learning about blood sugar dysregulation and gathering data through constant finger pricks and CGM experiments since I am now at greater risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes in the future. I've learned A LOT about what works and doesn't work for my body, and how my body responds to different foods. I hope this video helps you on your path to a healthier lifestyle!
