Operation Regulate Blood Sugar.
I haven’t been feeling like myself for a while now. I have slowly made diet changes and exercises changes but nothing seemed to be working. I thought maybe it was a mix of anxiety, depression, and stress. Since my diet tweaks and exercise routine didn’t seem to be helping I knew something else was probably up. I woke up yesterday morning and tested my blood glucose. My fasting levels were super high. Then I ate breakfast had a cup of coffee and tested my levels again after one and a half hours. It was also high. My reaction. Ugh! I woke up this morning and tested. High again.
After researching all of the symptoms of high blood sugar levels. I currently fall into 90% of them. After two back to back pregnancies with gestational diabetes. This is something I can’t let get out of control.
Operation get blood sugar levels regulated starts today! I’m going to change my diet to higher in protein and higher in fiber. I am going to add in more veggies and limit my carb intake. I am also going to cut out most if not all refined sugars. I think this will all take some trial and error. I am going to continue to test my fasting levels daily and after at least one meal a day.
