About this listen
Have you ever counted your carbs perfectly, dosed your insulin exactly right, and still ended up with frustrating blood sugars two hours later? You're not alone! In this episode, I'm sharing three factors beyond carb counting that affect your post-meal blood sugars, and simple ways to adjust for them so you can finally get the results you're looking for.
What you'll learn:
- Why "just covering the carbs" often fails
- How protein and fat affect blood sugar—and what to do about it
- Why timing your bolus is just as important as the amount
- How to use extended/dual-wave boluses for high-fat meals
- The power of the "experiment, not perfection" mindset
- One small adjustment to try this week for better post-meal results
