My love for all things sweet

It looks like it just may be catching up with me. I’m pretty much a junk food junkie and have the largest sweet tooth in the world. What did that get me recently? The joy of the 3 hour glucose test. At least it gave me a morning off work and an excuse to read for three hours, but nonetheless, they pricked me and poked me four times that morning.

In my head I’ve prepared that I’m going to fail and I won’t be eating any more sweets for the next few months. No pop, Pop Tarts, ice cream, cake, cookies, candy… hmm, maybe I have a problem?! Those items paired up without exercise, which may have saved me last time, aren’t so good for the blood sugar numbers. Too bad I never started that little exercise thing!! 😉

Fingers crossed I hear good news today, if they call me back*. If not I’m just stuffing in all the sweets I can get until I’m told otherwise!! I think that is definitely good for the blood sugar levels, gestational diabetes or not!

*They did not call me back yet so I’m going with ignorance is bliss. Read: I had sugary Starbucks coffee drink in the morning, pasta for lunch, pasta for dinner with Hawaiian Punch to drink, and part of a huge cookie with frosting after dinner. (That I bought last week after I found out I failed the 1 hour) I have a problem!!!!

**I still fully expect to find out I failed and I’m pretty sure anyone reading this would say, well yeah, look what you eat woman!
