The other day I went out for upside down dinner with my friends Alex and Shellee.
Alex wanted to have dessert with us and then eat dinner with her family afterwards.
I have been on a very high protein diet and didn’t know what dessert first would feel like, but I was willing to give it a try. (All things in moderation- I’m not a saint!)
I could feel the sugar enter my bloodstream and hopped up from the table to bust out my table- side squats.
November is Diabetes Awareness Month and with big holiday meals coming up, I wanted to make sure you know how to do two things simultaneously:
Keep your blood sugar from spiking and ….horrifying your friends (or family!) in public.
A client of mine named Sara is a specially diabetes trained nurse, and she verified this fact for me:
The best way to keep your blood sugar from spiking is to go for a brisk 20 minute walk
immediately after a meal, or do 50 air squats.
So, in the restaurant, up I hop to bust out table-side squats so that my blood sugar won’t go through the roof.
I caught it on video to prove it.
The guy to my left looks like he just doesn’t know what to think! 🙂
These two are used to my antics, and hopped up to join me at the very end.
You just can’t take me anywhere!
Here’s to stable blood sugar balance, strength, and happiness,
