Questions for today’s episode include: How do you know if you’re eating enough when you’re recovering from RED-S? Is getting your period back the only way to know, or will there be other signs? I’m a marathoner and have a family history of Type 2 diabetes. My A1C has been increasing, and I’m not sure how to balance managing my A1C and weight with fueling for performance. Do you have any advice? I just finished my high school senior track season and am getting ready for cross country in the fall, but I have a break between seasons. Should I fuel differently during this time or should I keep my intake up? I’ve been struggling with chronic IT band issues. Do you have thoughts on some nutrition changes I could make to better address this issue? Thanks so much to everyone who has submitted questions so far! If you would like to submit a question for future episodes, you can do so on my website HERE or email me at fuelingforwardpodcast@gmail.com . ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-fueling-forward-podcast-7172824/episodes/q-a-with-maddie-33/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-fueling-forward-podcast-7172824/q-a-with-maddie-33.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
