I have noticed something that may not be appropriate to say out loud but Keto, Ketovore, carnivore people are the kindest most beautiful people. Must be the healthiness bright eyes gorgeous skin and hair, and mental health. How awesome is that !!

Hey guys, just let you know I wear the libre 3, and I'm not a diabetic. I got my doctor to give me a prescription, I explained to her that I wanted to help with my weight loss and at first she was hesitant. I was persistent, explaining to her how I want to see how foods react to my body. I finally got a prescription. and I get it filled at Sam's club. I have no insurance. I pay $75 cash.✌️💜

I’ve learned so much since wearing my Libre 3! After I was diagnosed with diabetes, I went keto and it’s helped me to determine what foods did or didn’t spike me, and not only that, but also the outside factors in addition to the food. I could eat something for dinner at 6pm and see an increase in my glucose, but eating the same meal the next day for an early lunch had a much different reading. I love having this inside window, but at the same time I have to sometimes remind myself that I can’t let the numbers scare me or prevent me from doing things. For example, my fasting glucose ranges from 80-100, and sometimes if I workout hard it’ll spike to 200. Since I’ve been trying so hard to keep my glucose down in a normal range, it used to stop me from wanting exerting myself like that because I didn’t want the spike. But now I know that when it comes to exercise, I need to just let the numbers fall where they fall because it will only help my glucose in the long run.

Just got 2, one for me, and one for my T2 hubby. First time he’s been willing to even look at this stuff. Gotta take advantage of his gadget love. Baby steps, baby steps. Thanks for the discount!

Rachael, you consumed HFCS at the gas station. Made from GMO corn loaded with Glyphosate and other farm chemicals. My friend has bad reactions when she consumes GMO corn or HFCS. She can drink stevia soda and eat Organic corn with no problems. Very hard to find organic corn anymore 😢. Thank you both for helping so many😊😊😊.

I can get mine at Costco (my insurance won't pay for it) but at Costco, I get my 3 for $62 for two sensors! Love it!

From my experiences - Low blood glucose readings at night might be because the sensor is being compressed between your body and bedding. However CGMs are very worthwhile for anyone. Learning how our bodies react to different parts of our life and foods can help with lowing blood pressure, loosing weight, as well as the glucose readings. Also with a CGM and finger prick checks, do a finger prick and then check the CGM about 10-15 minutes later, most people will find the readings to be very similar. BTW, glucose meters and CGMs have a plus/minus 15% range to meet FDA specifications. So trends and comparison between reading are more important than a single reading.

Great timing. I have been looking at the Libre 3. I have a Dr appointment on 7/3. Previously diagnosed Type 2, I have been off meds since starting keto but staying in the pre-diabetes range A1C. Time to get some more data

[carmijok]

Thank you for this video! I love how you deep dive all the information to help us make fully informed decisions. I was finally able to get a prescription from my doctor and will start the FS Libre 3 tomorrow!❤

[AggieMara]

Thanks for this! I just ordered one. I used to diligently test my BS by a method called “eating to your meter”, which is a test before you eat, then an hour then two hours after I eat. That was the best way to monitor. It worked to monitor my BS (I’m a Type2 Diabetic) but my fingers were so sore after a while.

I have been buying my freestyle libre from Save Rite Medical for about six months with no doctors prescription. I just called them and they sent them out to me. I sent it with my iPhone and I’ve been using it ever since.

[mamakat]

I use the 2 and enter in lots of notes. I'll enter the time, what my reading was, and what I either ate or what I was going to eat. For me, I found that super helpful!

[warthog]

Great info. My doc was "cooperative" about giving me a prescription. CGM is a great tool for a pre-diabetic (which I am no longer, thanks to carnivore diet). Agree with your pros and cons about the FL3. Lack of calibration and non-cancellable low alarm are my two biggest gripes.

[teracolbert]

Thank you so much for this info...I ordered mine through Tastermonials and the proceess was so easy. I have had mine on for a few days now and it is very eye opening. I am new to keto so I am using this as a learning tool :)

[KetoKaren]

I just rewatched this to get the info. I ordered the 3 month prescription and applied to be a tester!

[singharmony]

Thank you for this video. I was diagnosed Type II Diabetic 3 years ago. Thought just by cutting back on carbs would lower BS. Medications made me very ilI. I have been learning so much more about how insulin reacts in the body. I had it all wrong, I thought I knew!!… I need to lose 70 - 80 lbs. I started carnivore about a month ago. I was shocked that it is taking my body a bit to heal and for my BS to read in a “normal” range. You are right, poking my finger throughout the day is a real bother, and learning not a true reading on BS trends. I am looking forward to getting the FreeStyle Libre3. I knew nothing about this affordable option. Very grateful. Thank You!

I followed your link to Tastermonial and got a 10% discount and it listed 2krazyketos!!! Thanks!!!

[mariak]

Great timing! I have decided that I am ready in my journey to try the CGM. I look forward to see the information I get . Knowledge is power.

[andir]

Got mine yesterday through Tastemonials. Only took about 3 days through my pharmacy. I have insurance (which would not pay), but was able to get 2 sensors for $78 because of getting the insurance "discount". Also used your link and Tastemonials gave me the 6-month prescription with your discount, so only $88 or $89. Great! My alarms went off through the night showing low glucose in the 50's, what a surprise, so need to figure that out. thanks so much!

[LoriBatronis]

Thank you for sharing about your dawn effect lasting multiple hours. Mine does that and I thought something was wrong with me.
