GD girls- Highs Before Meals and/or Fasting
What did your "support" staff say about this? I am sick, and I think my body is keeping me high to fight off the illness, but I have no idea what to do. My 1 on 1 appointment isn't for another 2.5-3 weeks and when I called yesterday, she just said keep tracking. I don't think it is a dietary or exercise thing, but what did people tell you when you were high before meals or first thing in the morning?

94 in the morning.
ETA: before getting sick I was always in the 70's... but now it's been creeping higher and higher and I was 93 yesterday and 94 today.

Have you tried eating a high protein snack before bed such as a hard boiled egg or almonds?

Re: GD girls- Highs Before Meals and/or Fasting
thats not so bad. what time is your last meal or snack?
plus you're in your 3tri. my nutritionist said in the 3rd my hormones would go crazy and could affect my numbers so i would need to watch what i eat

Also that's not crazy high. They take an avg of your #s so two levels being off are not that bad. Feel better!!

Re: GD girls- Highs Before Meals and/or Fasting
my last meal varies, although when I was eating dinner earlier the morning numbers were good. When I have been eating dinner later, I think it has been worse. But I really feel like this is all because i am sick, but I just got sick this weekend and its lasted my husband at least 2 weeks, so I mean, I just don't want the numbers to get any higher because I might be like this for 2 weeks at least

Re: GD girls- Highs Before Meals and/or Fasting
What numbers do they seem concerned about? Like what would be too high and of concern?

Try limiting carbs during dinner and have a high protein snack right before bed. It should lower your fasting #.

My morning fasting numbers were always in the 90's. I tried eating protein before bed, waking up for protein everything, nothing changed them. Then once they started creeping into the 100's consistently, I was put on a low dose of medicine at night that helped to keep them in check

this happens to me as well. not sure if your up for it but going for a 10-15min walk helps with the levels. both nutritionist and doc told me this and it really does help.
i go for nice walks after lunch and dinner just started going after my last snack before bed.
