I discovered a simple ass trick to do when you get low so you donβt overcorrect it with too much juice! π€©ππΌ

You know when you get low and then raid the fridge with 80 carbs of snacks and juice because your brain is telling you it needs MORE! ππ§π

But then you get a rebound high and starts the cycle of the rollercoaster which ainβt fun π

So what I did recently that really worked is when you get low have your 20 g carb snack, and then set a timer for 15 minutes.

The next step is you have to keep your mind busy because if you donβt, all you will think about is getting more food.

So do something to keep yourself busy.

Go on TickTock, go on Instagram, read a book, watch tv.

I suggest doing something that doesnβt take any thinking because I know when we are low it is hard to use any brainpower. π€π
β β β β β β β β β
When the timer goes off check your sugar.
β β β β β β β β β
If it is still low, have another snack. And if itβs trending up, be patient young grasshopper π¦

This did wonders for me and is super simple!
