gestational diabetes - negative!

Last April 27, I went to Blount hospital to get my blood sugar test for gestational diabetes.  I am a little bit concern coz I have been eating alot of sweets lately (what can I do, I have an uncontrollable appetite!).  Well I went to get my blood extracted and they said if I received a call in about 4-5 days, that means I am positive with gestational diabetes.  Well it's been 10 days now and I am a happy momma once again coz they never called me! :)  I am so relieved because if they called and I resulted positive, I would have to go through a 5 day strict diet and spend about 3-4 hours getting some more elaborate tests after dieting.  Well thank God I do not have to go through the nasty health food diet!  I mean I still have to continue watching what I eat because my baby and I are gaining weight at an alarming weight.  The OB said I am at a great shape and weight so I am glad about that!  Now, if you excuse me, I have a slice of cake waiting for me. :)

And the diet begins...

So I was on denial over the last few days that I gained weight.  Last week I was only 162 lbs.  When I went to the doctor last march 30th, I was at 167 lbs!  And I am blaming it on the weighing scale in UT medical.  Today Ryan and I are looking at each other and we are like, OH... MY.... GOD!  We did gained weight!  I know I should not diet while pregnant but I do have to watch my weight and what I am eating.  unfortunately, we downed 2 cheesecakes and 1 buttercake in the last 6 weeks.  UNACCEPTABLE!  So, first I have to come up with a healthy menu on a weekly basis without ofcourse compromising mine and my baby's health.  And second, Ryan and I are going to start exercising more.  Ryan is going back to the gym while I will continue my prenatal workout.  Hopefully that helps!  Because we want to be sexy again!! :P
