More protien really helps keep you full longer :happy: As you test more and more you'll figure out what things you can basically eat all you want of and won't affect your numbers. But chances are it'll probably be one of the above items :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2348182 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 14:48:41 +0000 Truth Bombs 2348182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm just popping in to say I'm so glad I'm not the only one who turned into a hungry monster at 36 weeks! I don't remember this happening with my first!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2348175 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 14:38:28 +0000 MrsYellowJacket 2348175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>More protein snacks for sure!!! I have more than the "recommended" number of snacks, but make sensible choices so my levels are maintained. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2348113 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 13:21:16 +0000 Kemma 2348113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember hitting that point and when I spoke with my diabetes nurse she told me it's ok to eat but just take care of my choices (so eat smart snacks and don't binge on the sugary / carby stuff). I don't mean to sound flippant but you're not going to kill your baby by eating extra food when you're hungry 😜 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2347989 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 09:37:55 +0000 Mamasig 2347989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My OB always told me eat more protein if I was still hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2347985 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 09:29:09 +0000 autumnlove 2347985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>More snacks in between meals. Cheese, nuts, veggies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2347896 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 05:45:45 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2347896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there a way to keep all the same foods and times but just eat more? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2347895 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 05:34:31 +0000 Cherrybee 2347895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Snack on food that wont affect blood sugar, like meat and cheese. I stocked my fridge with mini cheese like Babybels and cooked up huge batches of chicken legs, slices of pork belly etc to pull out whenever I needed them. Tuna mayo is another favourite for me - a bowl of tuna mayo will get rid of any hunger! Ooh, you could also boil up some eggs and keep in the fridge for a snack. </p> <p>I also loved Atkins chocolate bars but they can affect your blood sugar so use with caution. </p> <p>You're nearly there! You can do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gd-and-suddenly-constantly-hungry#post-2347891 Sun, 08 Nov 2015 05:11:36 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 2347891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I have been dealing with GD for a couple months now. I am used to what I can and cannot eat, my sugar levels have been nearly impossible to control but they have confirmed it isn't my diet since I am pretty strict about it (because of the frustratingly high levels) but now it looks like I might have the right med balance. Problem? I have hit the point in my pregnancy, 36 weeks, when I am ravenous. I eat my meals and snacks and am full and then an hour later, or 3 am, I starving again!!! I am terrified to eat even an almond for fear it will throw off my already precariously balanced numbers. Ugh... How am I doing to make it through one more month of this??? This kid needs to go ahead and make an entrance now. </p>
