    Welcome! Congratulations on getting your sugar levels down. That is fantastic! I've struggled with gestational diabetes with my first 2 pregnancies and am hoping that I won't have to this pregnancy (currently 24 weeks along). This site is a really great place for getting support. I have made a few friends on here that I am proud to say that I can call true friends. I'd be happy to support you in your journey. :-)

    Thanks all nice to have some support through this process, the word diet sucks and life style change is so hard to control and stick with. im calling it life extension which has a massive impact on me as i want to watch my kids grow. to have my bsl down to normal is probably the start less sugar in means less sugar to burn, Ive stopped buying reduced fat products and switched to reduced salt, reason is when they remove fat they put sugar back in it place so pointless. i also don't by recipe bases just make everything from scratch which makes it more time consuming entering into food chart, ive got my next dr appointment tomorrow with a weight-in and meds review, heres hoping hes happy cause i am

    anywho nice to meet you all i look forward to reaching my goal
