My Blood Sugar Log

About My Blood Sugar Log

The doctor said "6.3" and told me to watch my sugar. I drove home, sat at the kitchen counter, and Googled what A1C meant. Then what 6.3 meant. By midnight I was in health forums reading about berberine, cinnamon, inositol — names I'd never heard that morning. I'm 51, I own a small business in suburban Atlanta, and until that physical I had never thought seriously about my blood glucose.

That was eighteen months ago. My wife calls it "the obsession." My fasting reading was 118 the morning I started tracking — 6:47 AM, before coffee, same protocol every day since. I log that number, track post-meal readings two hours after dinner, note which supplement I'm running, and keep a spreadsheet that now runs longer than my actual business financials. One supplement at a time. Thirty days minimum. I write down what the numbers did — and on three separate occasions, what they didn't do, because that's data too.

This site is that log. Nothing here is medical advice. I'm not a doctor, not a nutritionist — please talk to yours before making any changes, especially for blood sugar, which is a serious health concern that deserves professional oversight. What I can offer is what a glucose meter showed over 30 days per supplement, recorded by someone who takes the testing protocol seriously because the stakes are real.
