Hi Bel, phew I'm so relieved to hear that your doc knows what he/she is doing! So you are not a PCOSer then... your case sounds unusual, I hope clomid works a treat for you. As for when (not if!) you fall pg, your doc will keep monitoring your blood sugars very closely I'm sure, so you don't have to worry about increased m/c rates (again I was coming from the PCOS angle).

Japan sounds great - yummo all that sushi (GI about 50-55?!?). *salivating* I can't believe I didn't get a good last fix of sushi pre-pg - I would have if I had any idea I was going to fall pg!

Insulin-resistance is so cruel - everything my body craves and I love eating is extremely high-GI, I guess that's the whole crux of the problem, huh?

Yes, would love to chat, but am not set up with MSN or Yahoo...yet. I'll get myself set up and then let you know.
