Today I had my first appointment with the Dietician. A little...okay REALLY OVERWHELMING!!!!! Lots of information to process. Here's a little run down of what I kinda learned today. I should be eating two serving of carbs at each meal. No more than 30 carbs a meal. Snacks I can have up to 15 carbs. Get this..if there is over 5g of fiber I can take my Carb number and half it. Yep..that's right!!!
Some protein at every meal. 1600 calories a day. No more than 150 carbs a day. Cake???? Yes I can eat cake. 2 in square piece which will take up my 2 carbs. Probably not a wise choice. But you never know. Might really really need that piece...or should I say CRUMB of cake. :)
Suppose to eat 6 times a day. And keep the carbs evenly spread thru the day. Which what I've been doing is eating less carbs during the day and more at night. This isn't Weight Watchers I can't save my points and use them at the end of the day. (You were so right about that Tracie!!) So I should spread the carbs out equally during the day so my sugar levels stay happy!! Okay, I think that's it!! Phewwww.
Next appointment in two weeks.
