Low Carb, Blood Sugar, and Not Fooling Yourself

The data is easy to collect. Being honest about what it tells you is harder.

It's easy to wear a device, log a meal, and pretend the graph agrees with what you already wanted to believe. The hard part is changing behavior after the graph quietly tells you that your habits aren't as special as your excuses.

Low carb can help. So can walking, sleeping, and not rewarding every stressful day with bad decisions dressed up as self-care.

The useful metric isn't purity. It's whether the trend gets less stupid over time.
