Gdm Diet

I have gdm and I'm told by my dietician to just adjust my food intake such as less sugar, oily food and carbo consumption. But healthy are very expensive nowadays, especially when people are buying in bulk. Anyone who has been through it can recommend me some examples? I have a list of examples given but I would like to know how you guys do it. Anyway I'm a full time mom student currently 8 months pregnant with an 11 month old baby girl.

It’s not easy but adjustments can be advised by nutritionists. Best to eat soup stuff like yong tau foo with less rice or whole grain noodles. Low GI Bread - gardenia and sunshine brand have. Basmati or brown rice instead of white rice. Smaller portions too. Steamed meat/ fish instead of fried and braised. Less gravy cause that’s where the oil, sugar are. Low fat milk and no sugar soya bean drinks. For salads - less dressing or none. No bbt - even if it’s 0% sugar cause their toppings are sweet too (I tried) Most important is to walk during the 2 hours after food. The longer and more active the better!
