Welcome

I'm beyond HUNGRY & I feel so alone!!!

You see today is DAY 5 of my GD diet... Some days are good, but hard due to being hungry & other days I just can't seem to get it right... Remember I'm only on day 5, and I want to believe it will get easier but not having a job & having to eat 6 times a day is HARD!!!

So today I had to wake up early for the misters BDay... Long story short I knew my reading would be high (81) ate my normal BF and my reading was (136) then I ate 2x my snack because I was so hungry then Lunch came around... Again I'm HUNGRY... I had some rice cakes (mini's) and a salad w/chicken... I look at the mister and noticed he was asleep so I got a bag of Peanut M&M's.... I know this is going to be bad so I log online (the bump)to see if maybe JUST maybe someone else is going through this too. HUNGRY ALL THE TIME...

I’ve been on a diet... lost 75 pounds but this is nothing like that! Diets are normally hard the 1st few days then they get easier, but this is HARD! Ok I'm sure you get my point & I hope you feel my pain!!!

Here's where I'm lost... I also have High Blood Pressure been on meds since age 23.... I know nothing about the effects GD has on Brianna, I mean I know they say you can have a LARGE baby but what happens when the readings are over 120?

Here are my readings....

Day One: 82, 129, 132, 154

Day Two: 72, 112, 107, 130

Day Three: 93, 129, 125, 154

Day Four: 76, 147, 98, 103

Day Five: 81, 136, 142 (after lunch/m&m's)

I noticed the KEY is eat & walk or do something (busy work) but at dinner I usually don't eat on the plan because of lack of food... but the mister got paid yesterday so I hope this next week will get better!!! I mean DO I NEED TO CALL THE DOC? I don't want to go on meds! If I do go on meds how will they help?

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR READING MY LONG POST!!! Sorry for the vent!!!
