Doing my glucose test today... but my appointment isn't until 2:30 this afternoon. Now I'm all nervous about what I should or should not eat all day. Everyone keeps telling me the more protein, the better, or to fast, but I want the results to be accurate....

I know, my OBs nurse said I just need to drink tons of extra water for a few days and come back any day next week to try again. I'm gonna try to come in the morning next time, maybe that will make it easier.

My goodness! Make sure you drink extra water this week. And even some juice to get that blood flowing! I heard the orange tastes like orange crush without the carbonation :) I got the fruit punch though, and it was alright. Just super sweet! Lol

I was a little nervous about the results. The test isn't horrible. Try getting fruit punch or the orange flavored one. Those are the best. The worst part is waiting for the results, the rest is a breeze. Bananas are known to raise blood sugar levels and I wasn't aware of that at the time of my test and my preglucose reading was 87 even after the banana. Lol. I would probably just snack on some kind of fruit before hand. Too much can cause inaccurate readings and can make you fail which means you'll have an even longer, in depth testing to do. Good luck! I promise it's not bad! :)

I feel like that would be a lot of sugar... I know they're going to give me a ton of sugar in that drink, I don't want to overload beforehand. My OB had just told me to not eat for an hour before the test, and not have anything TOO sweet for most of the day. But so much stuff has SO MUCH sugar in it, even breads and pasta.
