New to group/ gest. diabetes Need support

Hello!!  I posted this already but not sure where I did.  I read to post either here or the type one board as the GD board wasn't very active.  I would like to join the group for support for gestational diabetes. I am due in Feb 2012.  I have never had GD before.  I was diagnosed almost 2 weeks ago and am so far doing well with diet control but I am getting tired of eggs!!  Does anyone have any suggestions for food choices?  I would like to control this with diet but am struggling "mentally" (for lack of a better word) with it.  Anyone in the same boat?  I am really having a hard time wiht Christmas coming up and traveling and such.  I feel like thinking about food is consuming me.

Re: New to group/ gest. diabetes Need support

I couldn't see always eating eggs. Actually I don't eat them much. I eat peanut butter, cheese, lunch meat, leftovers (like ham, turkey, etc) as proteins for breakfast or lunch. Let me know if you need more suggestions. I'll try to reply.
