EP 76: Four Morning Habits I Live By for Predictable Blood Sugars
Manage episode 350110111 series 3287239
Ever hear the saying, "Diabetes thrives off of routine"? So you try to wake up at the same time, eat the same breakfast and take the same bolus - but lo and behold, your blood sugars don't respond the same? I've said it before and I'll say it again, you CAN have flexibility in your day while having structure (and predictable blood sugars to go along with it).
Four hours of your morning is 16% of your day - imagine adding that onto your current time in range! Inside this episode, I'm walking you behind the scenes of my own morning routine and how I add in four hours of predictable blood sugars to start my day off strong, without restriction or limitation. And yes, even if you work crazy hours or have a changing schedule, this is for you!
