Food Diary Begun

Today I started my finger-prick tests and food diary in earnest. As I suspected, my recent post-meal headaches are a sign of rising blood sugar levels. Today's breakfast, where I gave in to a pumpkin donut, sent my bs levels to 160. It's supposed to be less than 120. Headache was killer. No more donuts for me. (I knew better. I just LOVE pumpkin anything.) I'll take my glucose test on Friday but I'm sure it will confirm what I've seen gradually coming all along, which is finally here--gestational diabetes. Might as well get with the program ASAP!
