3 ways that make the biggest difference in blood sugar regulation
Can I tell you something that surprises almost every woman I work with?
She is eating clean. Real food. Organic. No junk. Doing everything right.
And she is still crashing at 2pm. Still reaching for something sweet by 3. Still needing wine to come down at night. Still waking up at 3am for no reason.
The missing piece is almost always blood sugar.
Here's the simple version:
When your blood sugar spikes and crashes all day — even from healthy foods like fruit, oatmeal, or a smoothie — your body hits the panic button. It releases cortisol to bring it back up. And here's the problem with that:
Cortisol and progesterone are made from the same building blocks. When your body is constantly pumping out cortisol to manage blood sugar crashes — your progesterone tanks.
Low progesterone looks like this:
→ Mood swings before your period you cannot control → Anxiety that comes out of nowhere → Sugar and wine cravings that feel bigger than you → Sleep that doesn't restore you → A body that holds onto weight no matter what
You are not broken. Your blood sugar is just dysregulated. And it is stealing your hormones.
Three things that make the biggest difference:
⏱️ 1. Eat within an hour of waking. Protein and fat first — not coffee on an empty stomach. This sets your blood sugar for the entire day.
🥩 2. Protein at every single meal. Not a handful of almonds. Real protein. 30+ grams. This slows the blood sugar spike and keeps you stable for hours.
🍎 3. Never eat carbs alone. Not just fruit. Every carb needs a protein or fat partner. (Ex. Fruit with almond butter or greek yogurt.)
That's it. Simple — but it changes everything.
Now here's the truth.
For most of the women I work with, blood sugar is one piece of a bigger picture. We also need to look at what's happening in the gut — because a damaged gut lining makes blood sugar dysregulation significantly worse. And we need to look at the hormones themselves.
That's exactly what we do inside my 1:1 program.
