Another Day

I never thought I'd be overcoming the challenge of a diagnosis of gestational diabetes. It gives new meaning to a healthy baby and normal pregnancy, which I obviously will never take for granted again. I'm on day 5 of my crash diet of decreasing carbs and low sugar. I had the low sugar part already under control, but had no idea how much food I love contains carbs. I now find myself not looking forward to eating and in fact, sometimes don't care if I skip a meal. I rarely eat snacks between meals either. Now I wonder if my husband is indeed right, and I'm not getting enough nutrients. Is there not a happy medium? We'll see on Tuesday when I do the 3 hour tolerance test.
