So I just slipped over the boundary into gestational diabetes territory and have been advised to reduce carbs.
This is actually something I've been pondering anyway - LHCF makes sense to me, although I am too much of a wimp to go at it full pelt IYSWIM and figured pregnancy wasn't the right time to attempt something so different.
Ashamed to say once the dreadful nausea phase was over (16 weeks of barely eating) I have really enjoyed being able to eat again... too much :( I have stuck to my New Years resolution of cutting right down on fizzy drinks though so that's one thing that helped (lost nearly 2 stone pre pregnancy as before NY I was drinking it every day)
I am also autistic so find sudden change pretty hard, and due to my physical health issues (causing muscle pain etc) I find cooking quite difficult at times.
I would really appreciate some simple ideas of nice meals please
I like most things other than mushrooms, celeriac, fennel, seafood and smoked fish :o
Thank you!
