A little late, but good news!

I have normal glucose tolerance! :)

I had my revised glucose tolerance test a little more than a week ago and found out last Monday that my results were normal!!! This is so exciting because I was borderline diabetic during my first pregnancy and feared I would face the same fate this time around regardless of my weight loss and surgery.

For any of you who are wondering, my GTT went like this - I had my initial draw NOT FASTING, ate a candy bar (29g of sugar compared to the 50g in the drink) and had my blood drawn an hour later as well. My doc looked both at my immediate reaction to sugar and at my A1C. So glad we came up with a different plan! the 29g of sugar was enough to make me feel like crap - pretty sure the drink would have had me wishing for death! LOL

 congrats girly! so happy to hear! i'm a little nervous about mine because i was pre-diabetic before surgery. i have my test in 2 weeks. they gave me the glucola so i'm just gonna suck it up and try to do it. we'll see how it goes. fingers crossed.

are you excited about the baby shower saturday? i'm running around like a chicken with my head cut off!

I'm so excited for Saturday it's not even funny! :) Thank goodness I have two very amazing women taking care of the majority of the planning and detail so I'm not stressed about it. Just looking forward to it!

 lucky!! at first i gave the task to my mom but she totally dropped the ball. so i hired a planner but she was going through some stuff and was ALSO dropping the ball. i was like eff that i'm not paying for that. so my best friend wanted to take over but she's not even gonna be here for the shower. i pretty much gave up. luckily the shower will be at my parents' friends' house and they have tables and chairs. so i saved a lot of money and effort there. but the rest i've had to do myself. that combined with the fact that i just moved into a new place we keep having problems with things and the landlord is a dick. and its all been very stressful. i'm looking fwd to it but i kind of want to get it over with so i can just relax. and to make matters worse i've looked on my registry and only 4 items have been purchased. i feel like i'm gonna have to buy everything myself. between the shower and buying stuff for this house we're so tapped out.

stressful to say the least.

I know how you feel about the registry. There are only 2 items purchased from my registry and those are items that I've purchased already (car seat and swing)! You'll still get useful items, though. With my first pregnancy seriously NO ONE bought anything from my registry, but I still could use all of what I did get.

Hopefully your shower comes together with no issues! I can't imagine how frustrated you've been with people dropping the ball on such an important project!

 oh no!! so its true??? people don't even seem to care about the registry. lol. i don't get it. i always went by ppl's registries. or got them a gift card to that store. lol.

oh well!
