HAPPY FRIDAY! š And apparently 97 wasnāt finished telling the storyā¦
Yesterday morning, I checked my fasting blood glucose and saw something I hadnāt seen in longer than I can remember:
97 mg/dL.
UNDER 100! šš½
I was so excited that I planned to post about it yesterdayā¦but life happened and I never got the post up.
Maybe that was a good thing. š
Because THIS morning I checked againā¦
96 mg/dL. š
Two mornings. Two readings under 100.
Now THATāS my Happy Friday! šš½
Iām keeping this in perspective. Two readings donāt tell the whole story, and Iām certainly not declaring victory based on a couple of mornings.
But I AM celebrating progress.
Iāve been intentionally working on the small habits I can repeat:
š„© Protein
š¾ Fiber
š§ Hydration
š¶š½āāļø Movement
š“ Sleep
And yesterday, after seeing that 97, I still got outside and took my daily walk.
Because this isnāt about reaching one number and deciding Iām finished.
Itās about building habits I can actually live withāand continuing to show up for myself.
So today Iām celebrating 96.
Tomorrow? We keep going. š
SMALL WINS. REAL CHANGE.
