Congratulations on your pregnancy! I recommend signing up for Dr. Fuhrman’s membership site, as well, so that you have access to asking him questions directly. It was a huge help to me to be able to get guidance from him when my local doctors didn’t think that a change in my diet would make any difference. $7.95 per month is well worthwhile for the ability to get personalized answers from Dr. Fuhrman!

I pray that you have a great pregnancy and a healthy baby!

Thank you so much for recommending Eat for Health. I was just diagnosed last week with Type 2 diabetes and I am 12 weeks pregnant with my 5th child. I had gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy but sometime in the 2 years since then it’s turned into Type 2. I was actually really worried because I was told that my insurance wouldn’t cover the cost of the diabetic nutrition classes that they covered for my last pregnancy. This book is literally a gift from God to a very worried mom! I’ve already ordered mine and it should be here in two days. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I am glad you kept on keeping on. You kept me on the path of keeping on in other areas of my life so many times. Thank you so much! Discouragement doesn’t bring peace, does it? But doing the right thing in spite of not seeing results though hard at the beginning, brings such rewards later! Love you!

What a beautiful post. What seems to be key for you (and all of us) is that you “listen to” those signs; you don’t make excuses or rationalizations. You did it and it worked just like it’s supposed to. Funny how that works, isn’t it? :^)
Congratulations to you and your family and the new little angel who will be gracing his healthy mom with a grand entrance soon.

Glenda, they actually gave out that book? That’s terrific. When I attended the required diabetes education class, I was told that it didn’t matter if I had a piece of cake or a slice of sprouted grain bread, as long as I counted carbs!!! The idea of focusing on nutrition was actually discouraged. Thankfully, my endocrinologist told me on the first visit to eat lots of greens and beans – just the foods Dr. Fuhrman recommends.

Good topic for all of us Ü

I worked a short while in the Diabetes and Nutrition Clinic at the hospital for awhile this last year and they actually gave out that book to all of their new patients and those that followed also had huge success rates!

I love that illustration from the life of Peter – don’t take your eyes off the Lord Ü
