Pregnant after IF

XP: GD Ladies- Night time snack ideas

Please share your night time snacks with me.... 

I had my class on Wednesday morning and since I've tried adding a snack at night to my routine my fasting sugars have still been out of range at 93 and 100.   The rest of the day my numbers are within range.

Re: XP: GD Ladies- Night time snack ideas

  • I'm not GD, but type 1. What have you been eating for a bedtime snack? I usually eat a clementine or an apple with peanut butter. I have to take insulin for anything I eat with any amount of carbs, so it's a little different for me. Your bedtime snack should have (generally) 15-20 carbs with a protien to slows digestion.

  • I struggled with my fasting, started between 90 and 95 and ended up on night time insulin. My go to snack was a yoplait Greek yogurt and 5 triscuits. I also found breyers carb smart ice cream bars. I would do that with string cheese and crackers or pb and celery. Or fruit and a string cheese. GL. The night time snack was the hardest for me to figure out. My dietician wanted me to have a carb, and fruit with a protein...that never happened!!

  • I have Nutella or PB on graham Crackers.  I found I needed a few more carbs than they recommended to hold me over for the night.  If you don't eat enough your liver can start producing it's own sugars over night and cause your numbers to be high.
