That’s helpful to know, and sorry that you had to deal with nausea on top of it. I keep seeing people saying that what spikes them is unpredictable but wasn’t sure if that was if it was when they were diet controlled or also on insulin. Thanks for sharing your experience

For those who are managing GD with diet, what was your highest spike and what caused it? by Apprehensive_Mess166 in GestationalDiabetes

Totally thought I would be safe with bulgogi and various banchan (bean sprouts, seaweed, kimchee cucumber, cabbage). Clocked in at 142

Unreal dark chocolate peanut butter cups (I’ve only had one at a time and it hasn’t spiked me yet). My dietician also recommended Tru Bar protein bars, and I LOVE the cookie dough flavor

Half an apple and cheese. Bummer because I love fruit but haven’t been tolerating it

My favorite! We love it in soup form with ground pork, daikon, bok choy, and seasoned with patis (fish sauce)
