x-posted in DDC:

It wasn't so bad! DH went with me so he could learn about my diet too. We just basically went over the do's and don't of eating and I have to check my blood sugars 4 times a day !! Thankfully she only wants my readings once a week for now, so it's not a daily contact like I thought.

I did a reading in the office and it was 106, which is perfect, and it was 1.5 hours after I ate (plus I had a bit of OJ this morning). She was very pleased with that number!

I hope I can keep it this under control and not have to worry about and oral med or insulin.

So, just wanted to share the positve outcome of having GD, in case anyone else is/will be in the same boat with me!

Sounds great. Please let me know if you need any food ideas. I got pretty good about coming up with things to eat...i.e frozen bananas and grapes for sweet things. The one good thing about GD is that you'll be forced to eat well and probably won't gain much weight.

I'm glad it wasn't so bad. The time will pass quickly, and you'll be back to eating for one in no time.

Oh I'm so glad that went well for you. Sorry you have to deal with this, but like Val said at least you are forced to eat healthy and maybe won't gain that much! Way to look at the positive side!!

105 is a great number! It sounds like you were doing pretty well already. I'm glad your DH got to go with you to the appointment. That was very sweet of him. It sounds like if you keep doing what your doing you will get to stay off the meds
