Gestation Diabetes Meals/Snacks??

Question

What does your daily sample meal plan look like with gestational diabetes? Any tips/tricks/support would be wonderful. Feeling pretty defeated :(

Answer

Look at some Paleo recipes. Also try to eat lots of vegetables. Brown rice works for me. I would also if your not write everything you eat down so you can see what works and what doesn't.

Answer

I had it with my first. Just think low carb. Lots of veggies and protein. Moderate to small portions throughout the day.

Snack ideas:
Nuts
Cheese
Cottage cheese 
Carrots
Hummus
Cucumbers
Apple with peanut butter

Just a little off the top of my head. Did you go see a dietitian?  That was most helpful to me.

Answer

Low carb low sugar lots of veggies and meat I also eat fruit but watch out for that as they have natural sugar which can put you up

Answer

Thank you!! I'm having issues getting the "right" amount of carbs. I eat too many carbs = spike. Don't eat enough carbs = I spike! Wake up in the morning or from nap though and I'm EXTREMELY low....not sure if I'm just not understanding things or what!? I exercise daily and eat a fairy low carb/complex carb diet! I feel like I am at war with food! :(
