Currently 36 weeks with GD. Started this diet around 24 weeks when I was diagnosed with GD. GD is well under control now.
Breakfast - plain steamed eggs (2 eggs) OR 2 hard boiled eggs, 1 multigrain bread with cheese or butter or plain, 1 mini banana & 1 cup of soya milk (less sugar)
Lunch: cai fan with less rice / western food like chicken chop / noodles (always ask for less carbs, more meat & veg)
Tea break: 1 mini banana OR 1 packet Meiji plain cracker OR half cup lactation granola
Dinner: oats cooked with threadfin fish or chicken breast. Soup, vegetables and fruits. (Usually for Fridays and weekends, I’ll have 2-4 cheat meals, so I would let loose a little and have slightly more sinful food like well-done steak, beef brisket, Korean bbq, steamboat, prata, biryani, unagi don, up to 1/2 portion of dessert, etc)
Supper: 1 glass of sugar-free soy milk or maternal milk (consume before 9pm)
I hardly drank any carbonated, sweet or cold drinks throughout my pregnancy. I also avoided raw veg (salad), raw or half cooked eggs, sashimi and everything else that’s not fully cooked. Hope this helps.
