This is the greatest-hits recap, and this time it comes with the receipts.\nNeil runs the whole arc, the fear, the junk drawer of reasons, why food beats insulin to the finish line, and then the science: 15 minutes early can cut your peak by about 50 points, the sweet spot is 15 to 20 minutes, and pre-bolusing did not raise lows. Plus the August numbers, 27% of meals get a late or missed bolus, a high-fat meal can need 42% more insulin, and even 20-year veterans miss carb counts by about 15 grams. Eight weeks, one real skill.\nIn this episode:\nThe full eight-week arc, from fear to flat lines\nThe headline studies and numbers behind pre-bolusing\nThe August real-life lessons: restaurants, pizza, tech, and the kids' table\nProof of how far you've come since Episode 216\nThis Week's Challenge: Pull up your two-hour numbers from week one next to now. Compare them side by side. That difference is your receipt.
