GD mom: midnight snack

????2006 · January 2016

hi everyone: I'm still trying to get my fasting am levels under control. The dr said to try a midnight snack around 3am. It worked one night but this morning my level was 91. I did a graham cracker with PB for my pre-bed snack and then a glass of milk at 3am. Does anyone have any ideas or ways to get fasting levels down? Tonight's my last chance.

No-sorry I was asking about midnight snack vs snack before bed.

i feel like those are basically the same thing. did you ask your doctor what a good bedtime/midnight snack might be?

Same advice for a midnight snack holds true for the "before bed" snack. Basically something with loads of protein and has a low GI index.

She said milk or crackers and peanut butter. Last night though it didn't bring my numbers down enough (91).

Thank you! I tried a smoothie with Greek yogurt and berries tonight. It was 30 carbs and 25 protein so fingers crossed!
