What's one food you can't wait to eat again?

How are your GD numbers? If you gave birth, have you checked numbers still? How are they?
Not bad. Been trying to get more walks in at night to get this baby out. Still pregnant but my numbers are good!

I'm a teacher and my goal was to make it through the 1st quarter to Fall break. I made it!!! Let's hope for favorable cervical conditions so Dr will talk induction at my appointment today.
What's one food you can't wait to eat again?
Pasta. With bread. And a beer. All at the same time!
How are your GD numbers? If you gave birth, have you checked numbers still? How are they? Mostly pretty good - but today both fasting and post-breakfast have been a little high. The only pattern I can tell is that when I sleep poorly, they are higher. I think it's poor sleep causing high numbers, rather than the other way around, because I can't tell what would have caused the high numbers otherwise. Not that this doesn't give me increased anxiety.
Rants/Raves/Questions So my due date is the 13th and my birthday is the 15th. If the baby doesn't come before my birthday, I won't be able to have cake! I am finding this way more distressing than an adult should. Also, I'm having trouble picking out what kind of cake I want my mom to make me (which obviously may have to wait until after the actual birthday, but dammit, there will be cake.)
What's one food you can't wait to eat again? Cake.
How are your GD numbers? Good, no spikes this week. Had an appointment with the MFM last week and she said looking at my fasting numbers she doesn't think I'll have any issues PP.
Rants/Raves/Questions I was worried over the weekend because I was in my cousin's wedding so we had the rehearsal dinner Friday and wedding Saturday, but my numbers were good! I'm glad baby girl will be here before Halloween so I can eat DD's candy, lol!
What's one food you can't wait to eat again? Pancakes, I miss them so much!
How are your GD numbers? Pretty good. Only one spike this week. Went to a friend's baby shower and tried to get away with a little piece of lasagna and a mini lobster roll as well as a big salad. The resulting spike was . . . not good.
Rants/Raves/Questions Had a growth scan this morning and this baby is a peanut -- 5 pounds 8 oz, 28th percentile. So I am very happy that my GD appears to not be making me grow a giant baby. But man, I am sick of the GD diet. My numbers are fine so long as I stick to it, but ANY amount of bread or other flour based product sends them sky high. So I've just resigned myself to rotating the same meals in and out, and it's just really really boring -- I've been at this for over 12 weeks now. It's hard because baby is high, so my stomach is super squished and I'm getting increasingly bad heartburn. I feel like carbs would be so much easier to digest than all the protein and veggies I'm eating . . . I know they're good for me and good for the baby, but I can't wait until I don't have to stress about every little thing that I put in my mouth.
What's one food you can't wait to eat again? Cake cake cake cake cake cake cake. And everything else carby. But mostly cake.
