Passed my Diabetes test!

So, the doctor's office calls this morning at 8:30 AM. Of course, I saw it on the caller ID and knowing that most doctors only call with bad news, I prepared myself for the worst as I answered the phone. She said "I know you would have probably called this afternoon, but I wanted to give you the good news this morning. You passed your glucose tolerance test with a 106!" Whoo hoo!! I can still eat whatever I want! Truth is, I don't eat that much crap anymore anyway, but it is so nice not to have that restriction.

The only bad news was that I am anemic, so they want me to start taking some prescription iron supplementation. I guess that partly explains why I have been so overly tired over the past couple of months.

I'm so happy, no gestational diabetes for me!!! (At least for now, but I'll take it!)
