How to consume Watermelon without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Eat watermelon alongside a protein-rich food such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of almonds. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats in your meal, like avocado slices, chia seeds, or a small amount of olive oil. This can moderate the rise in blood sugar.
Portion Control
Limit the amount of watermelon you consume to a small portion, such as a cup or less, to reduce the impact on your glucose levels.
Precede with Fiber
Eat a fiber-rich food before having watermelon. Foods like leafy green salads, broccoli, or a small serving of quinoa can slow the digestion of sugars.
Combine with Low-Sugar Fruits
Mix watermelon with fruits that have lower sugar content, such as berries or green apples. This can balance out the overall sugar intake.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water before consuming watermelon. Proper hydration can help maintain more stable blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If eating watermelon as part of a meal, include whole grains like barley, oatmeal, or brown rice. These digest more slowly than refined grains.
Eat in Moderation
Balance your intake of watermelon with other lower-sugar snacks throughout the day to avoid cumulative spikes.
Incorporate Physical Activity
Take a short walk or engage in light exercise after eating watermelon to help your body use the glucose more effectively.
Monitor Timing
Consume watermelon earlier in the day when your body is more likely to process sugars efficiently, avoiding late-night snacks.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
