doctors appt canceled
So my doctor appt was canceled tonight which I didnt mind since my DH wasnt home in time anyways to stay with the kids..But I asked them to read me the results of my 3 hr glucose test since that was the main reason I was going tonight. And guess what I failed.. So next week when I go in to see him I will have to go over what to do but in the meantime my aunt is a dietician so Im gonna have her work with me on the diet.. I just knew I was gonna fail.. Has anyone ever been so sure about something..Oh well I guess no cake next week for my bday..

Thank you yeah same here but hes the type of doctor that you sit there for like 2 hrs waiting so it was easier in a way finding the info out on the phone.. I know my Aunt will be fair with the plan cause she knows how I eat and what I like which is nice and better then going to a stranger..

yep, me too! I literally told my ob that I would fail the glucose tests before I even took the 1 hour. I know my body... I never could handle a sugar bolous like that....
It's a bit scary in the beginning, but the diet is actually not that bad. the main thing is avoiding total carb bullets like sugary drinks (only unsweetened stuff), pasta, rice, mashed potatoes, cereal, candies, honey, preserves, white bread.
I found that with my mild case, I can even eat some birthday cake  Fatty cakes that aren't too sweet (like a cheesecake) are best, since the fat slows the carb absorption. This is also true for the occassional french fry.
It's good your aunt can help you out!

Thank you for the info but everything you listed to stay away from is my favorite types of foods  .. Im gonna have a tough time with this I see. The only thing I know Ill be good is at the drinks since I usually only drink water anyways..Thanks also about the tip for my birthday cake.. Im gonna go food shopping in a little while and make sure I get all the right stuff Thanks again.

Re: doctors appt canceled
Have BIG salad with your piece of cake and you can have.. or you can just go for a walk after the cake. This is what my Dietician told me when I had GD with my last pregnancy.. The fiber in the salad blocks the absorption of the cake carbs.. and the walk will help burn the carbs before it being absorbed.. when theres a will theres a way!!

Thank you soo much see the reason Im even caring about my cake is that my bestfriend makes the most amazing cakes and I know she is working on a special one for my Birthday which is also my sons 1st day of school next week so we are having a huge celebration and I would feel bad not eating it but I will def. have a salad and a walk if that will help thanks for the tip
