So my wife is breast feeding and she's hypo glycemic. Her issue is that she's trying to lose weight but she feels like she's starving all day no matter what's she eats due to the hypoglycemia and breast feeding! In order to avoid blood sugar crashes she feels like she has to eat all of the time so she doesn't get the shakes and feel dizzy, hungry etc...The only thing that tides her over seems to be Oatmeal, but only 2-3 hours. DO ANY OF YOU HAVE THOUGHTS ON FOODS THAT WOULD MAKE HER HYPOGLYCEMIC DELIMMA ANY BETTER?
A typical day of food for her looks like this
7am-2 packets of oatmeal w a piece of bacon and a glass of OJ
8:30-10AM-sweet potato brown rice triscuit crackers with mozzarella or Greek yogurt with a bannana.
11am- granola bar, cup of lemonade, popcorn 1 cup, carrots
12:30 lunch- evolve microwave meal w 2 cups of salad and a tablespoon dressing
230-3pm- turkey and cheese sandwich, granola bar 4:35
6pm- 3 eggs. A cup raw spinach, hash browns or toast
830pm cup of cereal with almond milk
9pm bed
Breast feeding and pumping milk all day....
She's not fat but wants to lose 35lbs, she is having issues with sit ups after the C section,
