I thought restriction was the path to control.

I followed the rules.

Ate the “safe” foods.

Skipped the things I loved - just to avoid the spikes.

But the more I played it safe… the less I actually lived.

In this new episode, I break down the hidden cost of diabetes restriction - and what finally set me free.

If you’ve ever avoided a meal, a moment, or a memory because of your blood sugars...

This one’s for you.

>> ENJOY!
