📈 A Day in the Life of CGM’ing
Here’s what Sarah’s glucose looked like on July 5th — and it tells a powerful story about fueling, movement, and recovery.
⠀
🍳 Morning? I started with a balanced egg-based breakfast — steady and strong.
⠀
🍪 The first big spike? That was a couple of my homemade oatmeal cookies after a protein-rich lunch — real food, whole grain, still a spike! I am very sensitive to carbohydrates after gestational diabetes (but MUCH better and quicker recovery than I used to have!)
⠀
🏃♀️ Then came a long, sweaty run… cue the metabolic zigzags as my body worked hard to fuel endurance. It was a very hot day and I’m using my CGM to guide my fueling (Aliyah & I are training for a half marathon in the fall!)
⠀
🔥 Evening spike? That’s from a hot sauna session — yep, your glucose can rise with heat, stress, or intensity, and that can actually be a sign of resilience.
⠀
👉 This is why we love CGMs. Not every spike is bad. When you understand why it’s happening, you can support your metabolism with confidence instead of fear.
Also knowing where I started and how far I’ve come is really motivating.
