Do you know how many carbs are in a 12 oz. shamrock shake? You don't want to know is the answer - unless you have gestational diabetes, and then just stay away.
The update is that the specialist I went to see is going to let me try to manage my blood sugars using a low carb diet. I still have to test 4 times a day, but no insulin at this point. Other good news? We get another ultrasound out of the deal! We will be seeing baby Lily again tomorrow - can't wait!! Good thing tax season makes the days go by so fast. They want to measure how big she is because women with GD have a risk of bigger babies. So I will give you another update when I hear about her measurements!
For now though, please don't send me any cookies, brownies, or cakes. In totally coincidential but semi-unrelated news, a friend of mine recently entered a radio contest to win free meat. You had to write a poem about meat to win the meat. Sadly, she did not win. But I think I truly appreciated the contest prize more than most - FREE MEAT?!? I can eat that!
