The Postpartum Shift

26. Tired, Moody, Craving Sugar? Your Blood Sugar Might Be the Problem!


Listen Later

Are you constantly exhausted, struggling with mood swings, or battling cravings? You’re not alone, and it’s NOT just part of postpartum life! Blood sugar balance plays a massive role in energy, metabolism, and even weight loss. In this episode, I share my personal experience with a major blood sugar crash and why every mom—whether pregnant, postpartum, or just trying to feel her best—needs to pay attention to blood sugar balance.

Here's a sneak peek:

[1:34] Common signs and symptoms your blood sugar is off balance 

[2:22] I share my blood sugar story

[10:22] Wake up call

[12:10] Being able to identify what blood sugar highs and lows look like and feel like in your body

[15:15] When the doctor tells you to just lose weight and your blood sugar will be okay and how that is backwards


Blood sugar balance isn’t just about diabetes—it affects every part of how you feel every day. If you’re struggling with energy crashes, mood swings, cravings, or weight gain, your blood sugar could be the missing piece. The good news? You can take control and start feeling better. For personalized support, meal plans, and expert guidance, check out The Postpartum Shift—you’ll find all the details in the show notes!
