Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are amazing tools—when used with strategy, not fear.
If you’re a high-performing woman juggling career, motherhood, and health goals, here’s how to actually make CGM work for you 👇🏽
✅ Look for patterns, not perfection. One spike doesn’t equal failure. Zoom out. Your overall trends are what matter most.
✅ Track your habits alongside your glucose. A CGM isn’t a crystal ball—it’s just data. Pair it with how you slept, moved, and what you ate for context.
✅ Don’t fear carbs. Pairing protein + fat with carbs can smooth out spikes without restriction. You’re not a keto robot—you’re a human.
✅ Use CGM during transitions. Perimenopause, thyroid shifts, medication changes—these are powerful times to gather insight and adjust with your doctor’s help.
✅ Work with an expert. CGM is a clinical tool, not a toy. Partnering with someone who understands your metabolism, hormones, and goals is the key to true optimization.
Remember: the goal isn’t to flatten your curve. It’s to live with more energy, clarity, and freedom. 🧠✨
