Here’s a few blood sugar hacks I implemented while eating out in Big Sur ⬇️
𝟏. 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫: Eat fiber first, then protein + fat, and save carbs/ sugar for last. You blunt the blood sugar spike when you eat food in this order.
𝟐. 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐛 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: Go halfsies on carbs…like ½ rice, ½ greens instead of a giant pile of rice. Portions matter when it comes to balancing blood sugar… you don’t have to completely restrict! A little of everything is my motto!
𝟑. 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭: Even a 10-min stroll after meals helps your body use that glucose instead of storing it.
Eating healthy isn’t all about a yes/no food list, it’s about STRATEGY.
I love using blood sugar balance as a healthy eating strategy because there are all kinds of cool hacks you can implement to keep your blood sugar in check ✔️ without restricting all carbs and sugar.
When you keep blood sugar in check, you have less cravings, less fat storage, less energy dips, less inflammation and a lot more control over your food choices.
This is the strategy I’ve used for years on myself and with my coaching clients.
Now that I’m in pregnancy mode, I’m starting to learn all the interesting things that happen with your blood sugar during pregnancy 🤯
I’m gunna slap on a CGM next week to see what’s really going on under the hood 🩸 Stay tuned…more to come!
