37 | Why I Wear a Blood Sugar Monitor to Finally Lose Weight

Have you ever thought a blood sugar monitor was only for people with diabetes? Do you feel like you're doing everything right and the scale still won't move? Could your blood sugar be spiking and crashing all day without you even knowing it? Carrie wears a continuous glucose monitor almost every day — and she's not diabetic. In this episode, she shares what showed up on her own CGM screen and why it changed how she thinks about blood sugar levels, cravings, and stubborn midlife weight. You'll hear her personal story, why insulin resistance hides behind "just menopause," and why one photo of a house isn't the same as a full walkthrough.
