December 2015 Moms

I just burst into tears because...

I'm tired and hungry - no time for a nap just yet and never feeling satisfied on this stupid gestational diabetes diet. If one more person tells me to eat more veggies or try yogurt I'm going to pull my hair out. They don't get to lecture when they are allowed to have chips and cookies!! To top it off some of the people I work with are real PITAs and I'm having to do their job for them. Ugh!!! I want a day off.

Sorry - I needed a venting moment. Feel free to add your own of course.

Re: I just burst into tears because...

  • Sorry to hear about your diet...I can relate to work woes, I wanna smack people upside the head with their keyboard.90% of the day

  • I know your pain, the first week I was diagnosed was the worst and this week I had a moment at Starbucks when I couldn't drink anything :(. Only a few more weeks left we can get
    Through this. Keep your chin up and go eat some chips. A handful will not kill you.
  • I broke down and was crying hysterically on Saturday because I was tired and so hungry from my GD diet. I have been eating more this week after a follow up appointment with the diabetes counselor, so hopefully it won't happen again this weekend. Hang in there...only about ten weeks more to go!
  • My heart goes out to you ladies with GD. And I completely agree with @kdoak2015 - 1 handful will not kill you.

  • I have GD too, it can be annoying at times. I'm just happy my dietition said I can have my chocolate as long as I have some nuts with it... Chips with a couple raw veggies won't drive your sugars through the roof either. I bet you can even have a small coffee if u pair it with a protien bar... Ask your dietitian about it.
  • Ugh that sounds rough. I spent the last two weeks feeling like I needed a day off and yesterday I just took one. I stayed home and stayed in bed all day watching netflix. It was absolutely glorious and think you should do it. It's important!
  • I was apparently just a basket case of emotions yesterday. I did end up eating a nice dinner and felt better. Apparently I can handle a plate of spaghetti but not a Luna bar. Makes no sense. I cried again later because hubby didn't cuddle with me at bedtime. I'm not usually so emotional - this having to behave when it comes to food is apparently making me dramatic. I'm making my dogs nervous too - LOL. I'd kill for a snickers bar. Coffee and tea are on my Safe list as long as they are unsweetened or I use Splenda. The milk in there gets iffy though so I only use a little. Thanks for the support everyone! It helps to know I'm not alone.
