[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2145916, member: 501623"] Did you eat low carb once you had the gestational diabetes? And have you had a fasting insulin and HOMA ir done to know how insulin resistant you are? I convinced one GP to let me have the HOMA and it came back at 1.2 but I think it might be 1.4 sometimes with my home bg readings being slightly higher. Ideal is under 1 but they won't blink and eye till you're over 2 on the HOMA I don't think. I've gone back to a keto day yesterday. Ate more meat than I have in a while. I struggle on keto while breastfeeding and not getting enough sleep with baby though so I'll be up and down again with carbs over the next week or so. My biggest problem is remembering to pull back on the fats when I add back the carbs! So easy to put weight on again otherwise. o_O [/QUOTE]
