Why Your Blood Sugar Is WORSE on Weekends (And How to Fix It)
Episode 148
Monday, 20 April, 2026
If your blood sugars look great Monday through Friday… but the weekend completely throws everything off, you're not imagining it. In this episode, I break down why weekends can quietly wreck your average, spike your A1C, and leave you feeling frustrated - even if you're "doing everything right" during the week! We're talking real-life stuff: less structure, different meal timing, social events, alcohol, random snacks, and how all of that impacts your insulin sensitivity and numbers. I've seen this pattern thousands of times (and yeah, I've dealt with it myself too). The good news? You don't need to give up your weekends. I'll walk you through simple, realistic ways to add just enough structure - without killing your vibe - so your blood sugars stay way more stable. If your numbers feel like a rollercoaster every Saturday and Sunday… this one's for you! Want the best blood sugars you've ever had while enjoying great food?
