GD- today is my first day testing blood.

Just went to the nutritionist today and met with the Nurse. Part of me wants to be like... i cant do this and cry and run away. The other part of me is like... this is for my little blueberry! i can do it! i can do anything!

There could be SO many worse things...

in that case, gals... give me your snack tips, your delicious treats! your sore pricked fingers!

i am nearly 13 weeks away from what i hope and expect to be the best day of my life.

i'm going to rock this GD like a hurricane!

I just met with the dietician today and got my supplies.  I went grocery shopping and what not too..

I was MAJORLY bummed... but then learned that I can still eat MOST of what I want- just portion control (something that i never used to do!)  It took me forever at the store, since i had to read the label on EVERYTHING.... meals can't be more than 30g of carbs- which proves to be difficult sometimes!!  But it's sooo worth it for this baby.

PS- my parents call LO "blueberry" too!! LOL

Don't worry, the time literally flies!  I was really bummed out about it all at first (especially when I had to go on insulin for my fasting numbers), but now I feel like it is no big deal and I am almost there!  I try to remember that I am really lucky to just have GD, and not be type 2 and that helps me to keep my whining in check
