Mostly stay away from sugar, some grains and what's like cereal, pasta. I have gestational diabetes too but I just have to make sure to stay away from sugar. Don't panic either it's very common for pregnant women to get it. It usually goes away when u have your baby. Hope this helped
Read labels. If one of the first three ingredients is high fructose corn syrup or sugar then do NOT eat it. Avoid starches--- white rice, pasta, potatoes, breads. Whole grain is OK! Eat lots of fresh and raw veggies. Apples are good. Cinnamon is known to reduce blood sugars as is garlic. eat lean proteins like salmon tilapia and chicken and turkey. Listen to your Dr and dietician
