[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. Just be healthy and "don't eat for three." I would say if you have unhealthy eating habits now, I'd change that. I had GD for both pregnancies (slightly overweight, not 40 pounds. Being overweight is not a guarantee of GD). For my second it was diagnosed at 14 weeks and I went on a strict low-carb "diet" and by diet I mean just cut out a ton of carbs but ate high protein/fat so that I wasn't cutting calories. Until I figured out the high protein/fat part, I actually ended up losing weight for a few weeks. Then I gained a little, maintained the same weight most of my pregnancy, then gained a little more in the third tri. In all I gained 11 pounds. I wouldn't worry that much and eat low carb unless you get diagnosed with GD, like me. But I would make sure I was eating healthy and exercising (if you've been exercising!).[/quote]
