[quote=Anonymous]Curious if anyone here has tried a CGM to better understand your body’s response to food and lose weight? I’m in perimenopause and feel like my body’s immediate response to food is really unpredictable. I’m tired of feeling tired. I don’t like the 12 lbs that appeared and won’t go away. After talking with my doctor, and finding out my fasting glucose and a1c is at the very top end of “good” I decided to give one a try. It’s pretty fascinating. For example, my glucose spikes if I add Vital Proteins to my coffee. But not when I leave it out. I just had a big low starch salad with chicken - which I thought would be a good choice - and now it’s rising fast. Flackers + hummus = steady. Flackers + hummus + some blueberries = spike. I just started last Friday and feel like I’m already getting all sorts of insights. Anyone else find these learnings turn into real change for how you eat and feel during the day?[/quote]
