Gestational diabetes

I just got a call from KKH. I am having GD. This is my 4th pregnancy and I never had GD before.Im at my 26 week now. I'm lost and I don't know what to eat right now. I'll be meeting the nurse and dietician only next week. The nurse over the phone told me food that I should avoid for now, but my mind is totally blank. I feel so depressed with the news . #advicepls

For breakfast my constant safe food is greek yoghurt with nuts. having GD is mostly finding out what ur safe foods are. in general u might wanna avoid white rice, white flour, berries(strawberries spiked my sugar so bad) and try to choose foods that are low GI in general!
