Sometimes, the best advice I can give to someone for their mental health is "take off your CGM." My CGM makes me feel safe and secure. I like knowing that I'll get an alert if my blood sugar is falling fast. But I also don't look at it very often. I trust my CGM to do its job without micromanaging it. For other people (maybe you?), all the info you get from your CGM consumes you. You can't focus on the things that are important to you because you are paying SO MUCH attention to your blood sugars. Can you relate? While CGM has been a game-changer in the world of T1D management, it's so important we set boundaries with these devices—and sometimes, that may mean taking them off. In this episode I talk about the advantages and the challenges that using a CGM can have on your mental health. We dive into the importance of setting boundaries with yourself and other people around your CGM so you can keep yourself safe, both mentally and physically.

With a focus on personalized approaches, we tackle the often misunderstood realm of anti-nutrients such as lectins and phytic acid, their impact on health, and the significance of prep methods to lessen their effects. Hitting a wall with your health goals can be disheartening, but could the culprit be your carb intake? We delve into the importance of metabolic flexibility and discovering your body's unique carb threshold. This session breaks down the spectrum of low-carb diets, from the modest reduction to the more extreme carnivore approach, and how to incrementally adjust your carb consumption to achieve optimal health without sacrificing energy or mental clarity. Plus, I share a strategy to utilize electrolytes, smoothing out the transition to fewer carbs, so you can maintain both hydration and nutrient balance.As the episode wraps, remember that your journey through the landscape of nutrition is deeply personal and ever-evolving.

One question I always ask the people I work with is "What does success look like for you?". Their answer is almost always "I don't want to feel (insert negative emotion) anymore. The challenge here is that it's almost impossible to stop feeling one emotion without stopping feeling many, if not all, of your emotions. I try to challenge people—and I want to challenge you—to reframe what success looks like for you. Shifting your perspective to value progress over perfection can lead to a more fulfilling and flexible life. In this episode​​​, I talk about what I think success with T1D + mental health looks like, and how you can reframe success in your mind so you are focusing on behaviors that are going to make the biggest difference in your quality of life.

In fact, when you avoid our negative emotions, it keeps you stuck in these emotions and you get the exact opposite results that you were hoping for. n this episode of the podcast, I talk all about avoidance and how it's the wrong strategy to break free from the stress of diabetes. You'll learn why it's natural to avoid uncomfortable emotions, but also how this avoidance is counterproductive to living free with T1D.

My goal is to make sure that you're set up for success with your mental health around T1D, especially if you are dealing with a fear of low blood sugar. To do this, it's helpful to look at the top 3 mistakes you're probably making to deal with your fear of lows: You define success as getting rid of your fear: It makes sense, right? You want your fear to go away. But what if, instead, you focused on doing the things your fear stops you from doing? You overthink and over plan: Your goal is to think about your fear of lows as little as possible. But overthinking and over planning just make you think about it more, without making you any safer. You keep your blood sugar high: While this strategy may reduce your anxiety in the short term, it does nothing to make your fear of lows go away. It likely makes it worse. On this episode, I dive deeper into what you're doing that's likely not working, and give you some tips that will help you better manage your fear of low blood sugar!

In this episode, I dive into my diabetes management journey during October 2023, including the lows.
