One thing that may be hard to explain is that "hungry" and "low blood sugar" do not always align.

I can be high blood sugar and still be hungry, which is not ideal.

I can have low blood sugar and not be hungry, which is also not ideal in worse ways.

Oddly some ice cream can be "not that bad in blood sugar" but "filling", which can be handy.

Now there’s less going on health-wise to affect it, blood sugar is nudging back down towards 6 and below. I hope it’s lower more often than I can tell (I haven’t tried a continuous monitor, due to the cost mostly).

Muscle is your body's largest glucose sink. The more you have, the more blood sugar your body can clear.

Strength training improves insulin sensitivity for 24–48 hours — no medication required.
