Something I discovered in both of my pregnancies is that I have Gestational Diabetes, while I am blessed for it to go away completely when I’m no longer pregnant… it is something I’ll have to deal with most likely every time I become pregnant. My mother has type 2 diabetes and it seems that whenever you reach a certain age in her side of the family that is bound to happen. It’s not surprising and it’s not rare, but it’s a factor of my life that I need to address.

While right now I’m breastfeeding and not about to abruptly change my diet, nor have I had the book quite long enough to speak to results… the tone of the book is right. It is dead on in inspiration and motivation. Written at a level that makes you part of your health care team. With a checklist format and a weekly overview, this appears to be something you can really do and without struggle for understanding. I love that something finally includes journaling and vitamins – both so important and often left out. Packed with recipes and shopping list, this could really be a jump start.

I’m willing to try. Why wait until I’m further into borderline diabetes? Or again with gestational diabetes? Or later in life, full on type 2 diabetes? This book is filled with advice to take to heart now, and to jump in full stream when we move past breastfeeding.

Like always as I discovered with the Great Physicians Diet and others, getting healthy does cost some money up front. Healthier food has a higher grocery store price tag as does organic and more natural options. Vitamins too… as for his recommendation of the supplements that he sells on his website, he knows how their made and that’s his safe suggestion since he cannot comment on everything behind other brands, however just as I thought with Jordan Rubin’s vitamins and such you can use other brands to get a healthy balance.

Pretty much all I’ve read here seems to go hand in hand with what I’ve been slowly gathering in my mind researching over the last few years…
