Your blood sugar tells a story…📊

A CGM (continuous glucose monitor) is a small sensor worn on your arm or abdomen that tracks your glucose levels in real time, every few minutes, all day long. Think of it like a heart rate monitor for your metabolism: instead of a single snapshot, you get the full picture.

At Foundation Health & Wellness, we look at your glucose data differently than conventional medicine. Standard fasting labs often flag nothing until you’re already in prediabetic range. Functional medicine sets a higher bar.

Here’s what we’re looking for: Fasting glucose: 75-85 mg/dL Post-meal peaks: no higher than 140 mg/dL

If your fasting number is creeping toward 99 and your doctor says “you’re fine,” your CGM data may tell a different story.

This is root-cause care. This is what personalized medicine actually looks like.

You worked hard to lose the weight. Now let’s talk about keeping it off. 💪
Most people don’t get enough support AFTER they hit their goal, and that’s exactly where things can start to unravel. 😔
Here is one of our favorite tips for maintaining your results:
⚖️ Weigh in weekly. Not to obsess, but to stay aware. Catching a small upward trend early is so much easier than addressing it later. When you track your weight over time, you start to notice patterns:
• That salty meal = temporary water weight
• Late-night snacking = next-day spike
• Balanced meals = more stable trends
It helps you connect the dots between what you eat and how your body responds-without guessing.
Remember: it’s not about one number, it’s about trends over time. Use the scale as a tool, not a judge.
🤝 Stay connected with your provider. Maintenance is part of the journey, and you shouldn’t have to navigate it alone.
