When most people think of blood sugar issues or type 2 diabetes, they picture someone sedentary, overweight, and eating poorly.
But that’s not always the case.
I’m tall. I’m lean. I eat clean. I’ve worked out consistently for years. But a while ago, I noticed my fasting glucose creeping toward 110 mg/dL; a number that puts you right on the edge of prediabetes.
It didn’t make sense. I was doing “everything right.” But my body said otherwise.
❌ What Went Wrong?
I later realized it was the combination of light alcohol use and late-night binge eating, even if most of it was healthy, that was overpowering the good habits I had in place.
Despite my healthy meals and workouts, I wasn’t giving my body the rhythm it needed to regulate and reset. I was unknowingly destroying my own insulin sensitivity and flattening my metabolic flexibility.
✅ What Changed Everything
I committed to a simple 7-day rhythm focused on:
- Consistent water intake
- Proper meal timing (especially first and last meals of the day)
- Low glycemic, plant-based whole foods
- Smart movement (light or vigorous, depending on the day)
- And an incredibly powerful nutrition tool that changed the game: Shakeology
The results were fast. After just one day I felt more vibrant. After ten days, alcohol no longer appealed to me. My cravings reset. My energy was calm and powerful. And my blood sugar began heading back to optimal territory.
This Isn’t About Body Size
It’s about function. And blood sugar is the ultimate feedback loop.
Even if you’re fit and active, you can still suffer from hidden blood sugar dysfunction that leads to:
- Brain fog
- Midday crashes
- Sleep disturbances
- Low motivation and energy swings
The good news? It’s reversible. And you don’t need perfection, you need consistency with the right tools.
