Hi all, Ive been on the gd diet for about a week now and am more or less managing my numbers. My main issue is that my fasting number is more or less ok (hovers around 5) but the one after breakfast is always high (today it was 8.4). The rest of the day seems fine..
The dietician at the hospital recommended approx 30g of carbs for breakfast and I have been trying to stick to that. I have been upping the protein each day and all it does is spike the numbers.
Could it be I am not drinking enough before I eat breakfast? Anyone else have high readings just after breakfast and been told it's ok?
I have gestational hypertension and the meds for that require them to be taken Twice a day with food.
Anyone?
