So…you’ve eaten a typical high carb breakfast of toast/cereal/pancakes/pop tarts :)..your blood sugar soared and then quickly dropped once insulin did its job.
When you have low blood sugar, you:
• Feel tired
• Get cranky
• Feel hungry
• Crave more carbs and not-so-healthy foods
• Have trouble concentrating (i.e. BRAIN FOG)
As a result, in your ravenous fatigue you grab the first carb you can find and shove it in your mouth….doughnuts, cookies, popcorn…and the cycle continues…sugar in your bloodstream triggers the pancreas to release insulin which then puts the sugar into your cells…. low blood sugar … fatigue … cravings … OVEREATING!!! Next, you might experience weight gain or the inability to lose weight…you may even become pre-diabetic after eating this way over time.
What’s the solution?
Eat FAT and protein for breakfast…this will:
• keep your blood sugar balanced
• keep you in fat burning mode rather than fat-storing mode
• help you lose weight
• give you more energy
• help you focus…get rid of BRAIN FOG
• reduce your cravings
Switch up your breakfast for 1 week and see how much better you can feel!
