Diabetes Prevention Class #5: Track Your Food

Yeah, so this was the week.  For two whole weeks we have to track our calories.  I'm am tracking carbs, too, because that's what I had to do during my gestational diabetes, and I'm just curious.

The big thing has been paying attention to labels and serving size.  I am mostly appalled.  This week we were given a set of measuring cups and spoons to help us keep serving sizes in mind.  I even got out the food scale that has only heretofore been used for Pinecar Derby.  I am on a roll with this measuring thing!

I did lose my wheels a little bit when I had a piece of delicious pumpkin roll that a friend made (holy moly, that was delicious!).  Also at a birthday party...there was a taco bar, so I ate some chicken by itself to "protein-up" after I ate a second piece of the cookie cake cookie (two pieces with cream in the middle!!).   I'm a mess, but I'm moving in the right direction!
