Gestational diabetes question: can I munch on LOW carb food, like olives or pickles, or "free" foods, in the two hours between eating and testing my blood sugars? I'm not hungry, per say, but I do want to snack on something.
What do you ladies eat that have Gd to keep it under control?
If so then it's is usually test pre meal and one to two hours after completely finished eating anything. If you mean glucose test where you drink the bottle Then it's up to your Dr fasting or not.
I have it and I do sometimes but I think it's best to wait after the two hours
Do you mean testing with a glucose monitor at home?
I already have it... I'm just trying to figure out about the time between eating and testing myself.
I have no idea but I'm sure you can have something to eat. maybe looking it up online would help... wish I could sorry @mommieoftwo

With all this food being posted I thought this might be fun.
Anyone else pregnant & crave spicy foods, salsa or even just junk food? I normally don’t eat salsa but being pregnant I want some! I also crave a lot of junk foods & spicy foods 😩😩😩
Do I have to give up spicy food
Discontinued Foods
What are some discontinued/throwback foods or drinks you miss?
I use a glucose monitor at home to test my blood. I keep my snacks around 15g of carbs and my meals 30-60g of carbs. I can eat pretty much anything I want that way. Just not ice cream, malts, shakes, etc. LOL
