I have gestational diabetes. My friend is throwing me my baby shower and was wondering what was ok for me to eat… she doesnt want to temp me too much. I cant have anything like cake & ice cream or even too much bread. Fruit & veges are good,yogurt, granola, etc… Protien & good fats (nuts) are good also. I want to tell her whats ok, but i dont want the food menu to completely suck for everyone else. Any ideas???? PLease!! Thanks

how does diabetes cause weight loss? I am 66 with a fasting glucose of 126. Lately I have been losing weight b?
but not exercising or dieting. Could it be diabetes?
If your fasting blood glucose level of 126 mg/dL is reproducible i.e. can be obtained on more than two occasions, and the test is carried out correctly, then you ARE diabetic, my friend.
By law, however, ONLY a practising medical doctor is allowed to make that diagnosis. You must, therefore, see your doctor to allow him/her to carry out the test for themself, or request you to attend for a blood test at a hospital or laboratory.
Yes, the losing weight CAN be a symptom of diabetes, but you really ought to get it checked out by your doctor anyway, just to be on the safe side.
I wish you well.
Edit:
Oops! I missed the first part of your question … how does diabetes cause weight loss? This happens due to improper fat metabolism. When your pancreas is not producing sufficient amounts of insulin, or your body is resistant to the effects of insulin that you do produce, your body’s cells aren’t able to use the glucose that’s present in your bloodstream. (It needs insulin to allow the transportation of glucose into your body’s cells, where it is used to create energy.) This leads to your body believing that it is in ‘starvation mode’ so it begins to break down muscle and fatty tissues in an attempt to stay alive.
This is actually more noticeable in people with type 1 diabetes as the symptoms come on very quickly. The chances of you having type 1 diabetes are extremely remote, my friend.
