A few weeks ago I had a rough few days. Stressed, short-tempered, the whole thing.
My fix? Ice cream after dinner. "I deserve this." Three nights in a row. Yeah, I know, very mature. LOL???
Each night, I had same terrible sleep. Weird dreams. Waking up tired and grumpy, craving more sugar than the day before.
It took until the third morning for it to click, my blood sugar was crashing overnight, and the "treat" was quietly wrecking my sleep, my mood, all of it.
I know this stuff for a living. Didn't stop me doing it anyway. My brain had a hissy fit and took over, until I realised what I was doing. I stopped and slept beautifully the next night. So good.
Something's coming for anyone who's ever known exactly what to do and still couldn't make it stick.
