🍳 Diabetes and breakfast: What time works best for you?

Hi everyone 👋

Let’s talk about mornings!

If you’re living with diabetes, you’ve probably heard that breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day, but when you eat it can make a difference, too. Some people need food right after waking up, while others wait a little and base it on how they’re feeling or what their blood sugar looks like.

💬 What about you?

• Do you usually eat breakfast right away, or wait until you’re hungry?
• Have you noticed that the timing of your first meal affects your blood sugar or energy?
• What’s your go-to breakfast that keeps you feeling full and balanced?

For some members, testing before and after breakfast has helped them find what works best. Others have shared that high-fiber or protein-rich foods in the morning make a big difference.

This space is here for you to share what helps, and maybe learn a new idea or two along the way.

Take care,
