diabetic snacks desserts

I just got gestational diabetes this month. I'm getting bored of the same stuff too. I've been looking up snacks and desserts on Google but haven't really found a lot.

I gained 90 pounds when I was pregnant, got gestational diabetes, turned into type II diabetes after I gave birth. I have tried every diet imaginable, and have not been able to lose much weight at all. I lost a few pounds when I started metformin medication, but have now stabilized again.

My hospital set me up with a diabetic education class, and it helped tons.

ths usual times to check blood sugar are fasting. Optimal level is in the 80s, but ‹95 is truely ok. >125 is diabetic. Other time is 2 hours after starting to eat. Optimal in this case is also <95, but 180 2 hrs after rating is considered diabetic. If you suspect you are at risk, for health, cut added sugars from your diet and reduce intake of processed foods. If you are diabetic, then low carb diet and meds, if necessary, is typically effective approach.

I had an A1C test and it came back at 6.4%. He said he wants me to follow a diabetic diet and exercise and have retest in 6 months. My fasting BS was 88, so that's good. I was told in college (I"m 34) that I had hypoglycemia and both my grandparents (one on each side) has diabetes. Does 6.4 mean I'm prediabetic? diabetic? Thanks!

Fill the fridge with healthy snacks and food , baby carrots, dip, yoghort, fruit, cheese, get crackers in, the healthy ones, sweets /candy only at the weekend as a treat dont buy them in and all of you will get healthy, low fat desserts, like ice cream, Bananas , grapes, baby tomatoes,If the food is there children will eat it if it isnt there they cant eat it.explaining to a 5 yar old wont work, take her to the store let her choose some snacks and food ,but only healthy ones. ....

But maybe some of the snacks and foods that are more diabetic-geared will help us not freak out if we see a higher BG. I have found many different groups/websites where I can buy their products, and is this something we should consider? But any kind of site where we could go and see a list of foods/snacks would certainly give us a better feel for this starting period (as if there really is such a thing for this disease).

I have been diabetic for over 30 years and Im 5'4 and 206 lbs and I exercise everyday as well as follow a proper diet and I cant seem to lose weight what else can I do to lose 70 lbs?

If you have pre diabetic readings 112 what would a days meals be, could you tell me what you would eat for breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and best times to eat, what time is the last meal .I have got a book about this also and am reading but wanted your input.

im type 2 diabetic, my sugar is under control i keep my numbers in range i eat five meals a day including snacks, but i always feel hungry. it is normal.

Does anyone know of any quick low fat low calorie desserts I can make for my family?

I'm a 17 yr old female and i'm not overweight (roughly 9 st and 5'3) but i feel i need to tone up and loose a bit of weight from my thighs and stomach and bum. I don't want to diet as its too annoying and im starting college soon but i'm planning on reducing snacks and sweet things. I also do 15 mins of running a day and 10 reverse crunches or whatever theyr'e called. I'm really unfit so i will gradually increase the time and amount of exersices.

I have lots of fruits throughout the day as my snacks, homemade frozen yogurt for desserts, and tons of steamed veggies during lunch and dinner. I'm not perfect and I do slip up, but my diet is about 1400-1450 calories and the dietician I saw said while she would like me to have less carbs in relation to the fat and protein, the 60% of caloric intake from carbs I'm currently getting isn't hurting my weight loss and can't be helped considering I get sick from fat (gallstones).

Eating almonds and walnuts (in small quantity) by a diabetic person, is it good?

That is very strange! Have you ingested any over the counter medicines, products or foods? Nyquil, Listerine, fruit cake? That's the first thing that came to mind...Although, I know Nyquil is a huge no-no for pregnant women because it does contain a small trace of alcohol...and because of the holidays, many foods and desserts are spiked with traces of alcohol...other than that, I'm stumped. When can they tell you what it is from?

I have it too and the diet my nutritionist put me on was 15g of carbs for breakfast. Then lunch and dinner between 50-60g. 2-3 snacks per day. No juices or milk. Lots and lots of water. Proteins are great (I'm vegetarian so this was a little harder to stay full) and no more sugary delicious food haha. Plus 20-30 minutes of exercise per day. Then check ur sugar levels when you wake up, then 1 hr after every meal (not snacks). My glucose levels stay perfect as long as I don't cheat.

I am 19 week pregnant first pregnancy and I've only gained 15 pounds. I weigh 135 now but weighed 120 for the whole first trimester and 3 1/2 of the second trimester I've also had really bad headaches and feeling very dizzy at times. I'm not a diabetic but live with my dad and step ma. My step ma is a diabetic she told me to test my sugar levels to see if that is the problem. I've always been also 5.6 and that's a normal level for non diabetic people but today it was 4.

tell you what the diabetic forum has some good folks who will know the answer to this..

It seems as though many of you JDRF volunteers who are also diabetic have had it for a long time without any complications. I was wondering how you managed your diabetes and how strict you are with your diet, like do you only eat set meals throughout the day and stay away from foods with a high glycemic index? If you do eat foods with a high GI, like a banana, do you wait a while after taking your insulin to give it a headstart?

if you dont have them around give him orange juice or anything with sugar like mountain dew or even sugar itself. some snacks you can keep around are like those gummie fruit snacks, and just little stuff like that. good luck.
