Ok first of gestational diabetes SUCKS! I met with an educator and a dietitian this morning, and they put me on a meal plan, which I figured they would. But seriously, I am eating less now than before I was pregnant, I don't think that's healthy...I'm supposed to eat 300 more calories a day...ummm I'm eating more like 300 less calories.
My blood sugar levels when I wake up in the morning before I eat anything should be between 60-75 and my levels 2 hours after I eat should be under 120...well today after lunch it was 60...that is super low after eating food...so I have to be doing something wrong...like not counting the carbs correctly or I don't even know what else.
I seriously think that if I just cut out the juice I was drinking and just watch a little of what I'm eating then I would be fine! Telling me I can't have something just makes me want it that much more and makes it more tough.
One of my friends suggested that after a few days my appetite would lessen because I'm eating less...well yeah, but I don't think I'm eating enough for myself...the baby gets everything it needs.
I guess we'll see how this next week goes....
