Episode Description
Session 3: When the Data Finally Speaks
Joanna arrives fresh off her birthday weekend—cake eaten, no regrets. But she's also carrying something new: proof.
Through a work project, she spent ten days wearing a continuous glucose monitor. For someone with a scientist's brain who's always wanted to see the data, this was gold. And what she discovered confirmed everything they'd been working on: that innocent afternoon snack—a few grapes, a plum—was sending her glucose through the roof and keeping it there until dinner.
But here's the bigger win: when she started lunch with protein and vegetables, she didn't crave a snack at all. The data matched the feeling. The advice was landing.
She's also been cooking from Danna's recipe booklet—peanut butter curry with lime, quinoa chili—and the whole family loved them. Small victories that add up.
The plan going forward? Keep the food log going, swap pasta for zucchini noodles or hearts of palm, and keep building meals around protein, veggies, and healthy fats. Oh, and the popcorn question? Unfortunately, anything popped spikes glucose fast. Some truths hurt.
This is session three of Joanna's health journey.
