Or maybe not???

I'm really questioning whether I have diabetes or not. Since going to class and getting my glucometer, I've taken my blood sugar 15 times and 13 out of 15 have been beautiful. I'm thinking that it was a weird fluke. I tested my theory by eating a HUGE cheeseburger with ketchup and onions and a LARGE fry on Friday night. (The cheeseburger was on a carb filled white bun). I took my blood sugar and they wanted it under 140 and it was 135. Who knows.

But I felt like crap after eating that burger, so I'll try to be good anyway.

Less than 9 weeks to go. I can do it! :)

Diabetes

Again...

I failed my one hour. I passed the one at 20 weeks but failed the one at 29 weeks. BARELY failed too. I needed my glucose level to be 130 or less and mine was 133. BOO!

I refused the 3 hour tolerance test. I'm just going to start the diet. I have my diabetes class on Thursday. I'm NOT looking forward to it but maybe I'll keep my weight under control and be healthier in the long run for it. We'll see.

Also, now Nick's convinced that people in his family only get diabetes with boys so he's 100% convinced this is a boy (I'm still thinking pink). I had diabetes with Dom and now this one but not Annabelle. And Nick's sister, Kate, had diabetes with Henry but not Sophie or Jill. Nick's sister in law never had diabetes and has 2 girls, Kailey and Addison. And my sister never had diabetes and has two girls...

Huh? Maybe he has a point....

Boy??

Weight...

So I've canceled weight watchers...I know! That's horrible. But we are still getting our finances straightened out and had to cut back on everything. So no more paying $40 a month for weight watchers. I've decided that until we are completely back up on our feet and until this wedding I'm in is over, I'm going to focus on less carbs. I'm not a huge fan of no carb diets but if you eat healthy I think it's fine.

The last few days I've eaten LOTS of veggies and tuna and fish and nuts. I'm ok with this. I'll start re-introducing fruit in a few weeks but until then, lots of meat and veggies and cheese. :)

Since starting to do this on Sunday, I've lost a little over 3 lbs. so I'm going to keep it up.

The main reason I have to do an extreme diet change is that I still have NO time to work out. Monday officially starts my half marathon training. Hopefully I can find the time then!

Until then though, I need to make this bridesmaid dress look GOOD! So diet on!
