you know i thought it would get easier to deal with the farther along i got, but it has just gotten harder and harder!!!  i find myself craving sugary things more and more than i did when i was first diagnosed.  Sad

 

all i want is a giant cheesecake darnit!!  *sigh* at least i don't have TOO much longer to go...

    Do you eat artificial sweeteners?  The Cheesecake Factory makes a sugar-free cheesecake (sweetened with Splenda) that is pretty good.  I know it's not the same as the carrot cake cheesecake or red velvet cheesecake that I'm craving, but it's not bad.  Even my DH was impressed.

    My other favorite sugar-free sweets are Dreyers sugar-free ice cream (butter pecan is the best) and Breyers Carb Smart ice cream bars.

    Hang in there!

    I know exactly how you feel!! It is hard. It has gotten harder for me too! I think it is harder because I am soooo tired and ready for baby to be here! I am having a hard time remembering to give myself my shots and do my testing. Let alone eating properly! Fruit sends my levels up *grrrrr* and I would give body parts at this stage to have a brownie!

    Stay strong! Think of your little babe on the way!!!

    this is me completely!!  my brain is so friggin fried i can barely remember to put my shoes on in the morning let alone take my shots and my sugar! 

     

    i wish i had a cheesecake factory near by but the nearest one to me is 2 hours away :-(  i think at this point if it weren't for artificial sweetener i'd go completely crazy!

    My biggest gripe is the commercials on tv.  If i see one more ad for a pizza, cake, or big bowl of pasta I'm gonna lose it!!  Stick out tongue

    Another suggestion on cheesecake - check out like an atkins diet or south beach diet cookbook.  They often have low-carb alternatives that are SUPER yummy!!

    I can't watch cooking shows anymore and I completely resent people who can eat normally now. Ahhhh you don't know how good you have it till its gone!
