One hour glucose test- Breakfast

elamplelampl member
in July 2012 Moms

Ladies:

 Tomorrow, I'm getting my (overdue) one hour glucose test.  My doctor told me that I can eat something before the test, but to be careful not to eat anything too sugary.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to what they ate before their test?

    I was told no starches or sugars, so I just ate bacon and eggs.

    Honestly, I ate french toast with syrup before my test. My DD was asking for it. :)  My numbers came back really good.  My blood sugar was like 63.  My dr told me to go home and eat something.

    Good luck.

    My doctor said I don't have to fast but she didn't say anything about avoiding sugary stuff.  I usually have cereal for breakfast so I'll probably either stick with that or have some eggs and toast.

    I think I had a piece of whole grain toast with scrambled eggs and just water to drink.

    My OB said to eat a protein rich breakfast, and not to eat anything 1-2 hrs before I went in to take the test.  So I ate 3 eggs for breakfast and took the test @ 1.5 hrs later....

    Mine told me to eat eggs, bacon, cheese (didn't have to eat all of them) and just water. I failed by 1 pt but passed my 3 hr without any problems.

    I was just told to avoid any extra sweets! My test won't be until 2pm so I was told to eat breakfast and lunch normally and avoid overly sweet items for the day.

    Whatever you choose, eat it WELL before you drink your drink. Otherwise it may give you a false reading and you'll be stuck doing the three hour like I did.

    i avoided all sugar and carbs, so i just made myself scrambled eggs with cheese at 10am, then just drank plain water until i drank the glucose drink at 1:45pm. i even avoided my gummy prenatal vitamin in the morning because i wasn't taking chances lol...i passed the test! :)

    I fasted completely but if I was going to eat I'd probably have eggs with cheese or something like that. Best to stay away from carbs altogether, including toast.

    I had a half of PB sandwich on wheat bread...I was just told nothing sugary and not white grains or whatever but whole wheat and whole grains were ok. I just took mine but haven't heard anything as of yet so I'm thinking no news is good news.
