Low carb dieting

As of this week, I am switching to a low carb diet. I'm doing this due to gestational diabetes. I'm currently 28 weeks pregnant and the glucose test this week showed that my glucose is too high. I am supposed to have a minimum of 175g of carbs a day. Trying to make sure I get that without going over is a challenge. I'm supposed to get 30 at breakfast, 60 at lunch, 60 at dinner, and another 30 for a snack. I did manage to get exactly 30 this morning for breakfast. I am going to use this blog to help keep track of what I am eating so that I can make sure that I get this right. I think I am just going to blog my daily meals.
Breakfast:
Egg white omelet with ham and cheese
3 strips of bacon
Blueberry muffin
Decaf coffee with cream and sugar
Calories: 536
Carbs: 30g
Carb count: 2

Business Spotlight

I am a big fan of home business. These can be great for stay at home moms. I have decided to start posting links to some of these. I just became aware of Willow House today. This site has some beautiful stuff for the home. I am already loving the Estate Collection. Very classy looking. I can already see that this site has the kind of nice things that I want for my home.

Lush


My amazing Switch Witch gifted me with an order from Lush. I love Lush products. They smell amazing. I was gifted bath bombs in Vanilla Fountain and Honeybee. Lush bath bombs are huge. I haven't used these yet since I am attempting to use up some other bath stuff first. I also got samples of Noubar and Waylander soap. I tried the Waylander on my face. I'll have to wait and try it again before I can really give an opinion.
