Stop checking your blood sugar after you eat. Seriously — what are you going to do with that number now?

The check that actually gives you control happens before the meal. And once I started using it that way, everything changed — fewer spikes, better recovery, and a real path toward lowering my A1C.

In this episode I tell you the story of the day I ignored my pre-meal number, ate into an already-elevated blood sugar during my luteal phase, and hit above 180. Then I give you 4 tips to use your pre-meal reading as a real-time decision-making tool — plus a full breakdown of CGMs, including over-the-counter options you can get right now without a prescription.
