Episode 136 - From Frustration to Progress: My Real Blood Work Results Explained
Episode 136 Show Notes
In this deeply personal and data-driven episode, Tiffany pulls back the curtain on her latest blood work results after months of navigating insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. From experimenting with keto to transitioning into a low-fat, plant-based approach inspired by Mastering Diabetes, Tiffany shares exactly what’s changed—and what hasn’t.
She breaks down key markers like A1C, fasting glucose, and fasting insulin in a way that actually makes sense, revealing why some “improvements” can be misleading if you’re not looking at the full picture. More importantly, she highlights a major win: improved insulin sensitivity that’s finally allowing her body to burn fat and build muscle again.
This episode goes beyond numbers, diving into the realities of perimenopause, hormone shifts, supplement strategies, and why she’s cautious about medications like Metformin while exploring alternatives—including the potential role of GLP-1 therapies.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right but your body isn’t responding, this episode offers both clarity and hope—proving that with the right data, strategy, and persistence, real progress is possible.
