The Good Enough Mama

Добавлен 28 фев 2022
Diagnosed with gestational diabetes in my first pregnancy in 2017, I became obsessed with gathering data about my own blood sugar and with what I was feeding my kids. Research said that due to my condition, my boys and I were now at an increased risk of developing diabetes earlier in life.
Since then, I've calmed down and am now able to approach our entire family's health in a more balanced and convenient way that fits into our routine and lifestyle. It's not about perfection but progress, and my belief is that even one meal approached with an intentionality is better than none.
So subscribe if you'd like to follow along in my journey! I'll be sharing simple meal ideas, snacks we love to fill out pantry with, CGM experiments, and more! Thanks for coming along for the ride :)

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
The way they voice syned together
❤yesterday I think 🤔 😕 😅 😐 😌
U gotta have butter with it
I love sprouted
PLEASE DO EINKORN, it's lower carb, higher protein
Yes, I started getting little and big skin tags, then when I started fasting and doing low carb they started FALLING OFF!! I Did 30 day Mary Ruddick keto gaps meat stock soup and they really started disappearing
My brother cry
This is a GREAT vlog! You are hitting all questions I have.
No human requires any carbohydrates at all. Satiate yourself with fat and protein instead and have a zero blood sugar rise. Potatoes digest into glucose. Just throw them into the trash bin; as well as that "Mastering Diabetes" book.
Is your iron ok?
That's very very interesting
This playlist is extremely illuminating, especially the one called " Diabetes as a Disease of Fat Toxicity." In research studies, it seems that fat, not carbs, is more closely associated with T2D. Very interesting stuff. ruclips.net/p/PL5TLzNi5fYd--uc9TA8ERQbQqSmBcSpyj
Seed oils cause me crazy inflammation more than anything else

❤ it the way you do your test . Me to really concern on my test .
Turmeric and ginger tea .
I would like to suggest you to test berberine, papaya leaves and Cissus sicyoides.
What about ezekiel bread
Would be nice to see how your BS reacts to Whole Grain bread! I've always heard it is the best bread.
Can You Fall Can You Shut up’s in Crying?
Baby 1: bro stop acting Baby 2: no I will cry until I get something Baby 1: oh let me try Both babies: 😭😭😭😭😭
When the second baby also started crying he lenned on the other baby and holding his hands. So adorable ❤❤❤
S😂😂😂😂
😊😊😊😊😊😊
Did you ever try freezing the toast first?
Cooking it in Ghee will keep you satiated longer, (7hrs) Try.
If you have to eat white rice meal, according to some experts, start with the veggies, then the meats, lastly the rice, which perhaps by now would be flavored by the viand sauces, if any. Why not experiment on this?
Marshmellow:👁️👄👁️
Keto bread one carb what about that no blood sugar spike lots of fiber
Research Soleus Pushups.
Finally, someone who makes a real world test with protein and fats.
It’s the oil and fat that stops your spike going down. It’s not difficult to understand
Have you tried comparing potatos and rice ? ❤️
Twins baby's no fight own not pacifier
😢😢😢😢
Try flaxseed bread
Try your experiments with berberine for 3 or 4 weeks. It may be a big benefit for you.
Hello. So glade I found your channel. I was diagnosed with pre diabetes in July. My numbers are a 5.8. I would love to hear your thoughts. I am 36, with PCOS, and also TTC. Do you think pre diabetes can be reversed? Any tips advice would be great. I know I am considered overweight according to my BMI. I need to lose a good 10-15 lbs, but am struggling.
thanks for the video.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊🎉🎉
It's not the oats that will spike your glucose it will be the blueberries!!
Recent studies have confirmed this. Eating carbs last does make a difference. But so does many other things
