Order of Eating

 



One of the things I learned at my endocrinologist appointment today was that the order we eat our food can actually make a difference. Instead of focusing only on what to eat, she explained that this order may help support steadier blood sugar and keep you feeling fuller longer: 

Vegetables first 

Protein next 

Healthy fats 

Carbs last 


Why?  

Fiber from vegetables helps slow digestion. 

Protein and healthy fats help you stay satisfied. 

Eating carbs last may help reduce blood sugar spikes after a meal. 


It’s not a cure for lipedema or a magic weight-loss trick, but it’s one more simple habit I’m adding to my toolbox to support my overall health and help manage inflammation. I love learning little changes like this because they feel realistic and sustainable—not restrictive.
