Whoops! Almost forgot! This week is #BritishPieWe

Whoops! Almost forgot!

This week is #BritishPieWeek and as we all know, pies aren’t the best choice with their heavy thick white pastry. HOWEVER, I am going to try my hardest to share a GD friendly pie recipe with you everyday this week!
⠀
𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟒 - 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐢𝐞
⠀
This creamy chicken pie is comfort food at it’s best! Chicken, bacon (or ham), mushrooms and leeks cooked in a super creamy sauce, topped with crisp buttery filo pastry… mmmmmmm!
⠀
You can of course swap the chicken for Quorn pieces if you’d like to make this pie vegetarian or omit the bacon/ham if you don’t eat pork.
⠀
The chicken, bacon/ham, double cream, butter and sesame seeds all help to pair the carbs found in the small amount of filo pastry and any additional starchy carbs added such as a couple of small skin on new potatoes.
⠀

I’ve been wanting to make some more low carb bis

I’ve been wanting to make some more low carb biscuit recipes for the website for some time, but I have a big problem with low carb biscuits... they are always too soft
⠀
My favourite cookies that I bake with my boys are nice & crisp on the outside and slightly gooey in the middle, but these cookies use a TON of sugar (in fact they use 2 types of sugar) plus white flour and so I really wanted to find an alternative and one that could be shared with you ladies with gestational diabetes too #WinWin
⠀
After lots of playing around with different ingredients, used in different amounts and different ways, I have finally created 2 new cookie recipes which I’m happy with and all 3 boys approved of (always a good sign) 👍🏻🍪
⠀
Whilst they aren’t quite as crisp as my home baked Millie’s cookies dupes, these are the best I’ve found so far! They will definitely help with those sugar & carb cravings without spiking blood glucose
⠀
So I ask you, which ones do you think you’d prefer?
⠀
1. Choc chip cookies
OR
2. Triple choc & nut cookies

(Sorry if you are nut free, as both these recipes use nuts)
⠀

So many people out there are charging for webinars

So many people out there are charging for webinars and courses to learn about gestational diabetes 😡 From £20 - hundreds of $
⠀
I’ve had to stop following a lot of med professionals accounts on Instagram as it’s really starting to anger me that they are using GDM as a condition to make money (on top of their PAID jobs!)
⠀
When I launched my GD UK membership for extra recipes & meal plans I got a lot of abuse over ‘charging GD women for information’. But as a stay-at-home Mum I needed a way to fund a professional website & my work involved (it’s just me, not a team of people working behind the scenes or group of researchers and I have to cover the costs involved). BUT it has always been the extra convenience that is in the membership; EXTRA recipes & meals plans at a small cost of £5/£7 a month with a min 1 month fee (not the amounts that many of these webinars are charging for BASIC knowledge)
⠀
All the information you NEED to know to follow a great GD diet & a wealth of other evidence-based information from diagnosis through to birth & beyond is absolutely FREE for anyone to use. I would never charge for that info as it should be readily available for free to anyone that needs it!
⠀
I get so many emails from private dietitians/nutritionists who want to collaborate with me but this sadly is not for the benefit of anyone but making money for themselves & many of which want to alter some of the info I give, being professionals & ‘knowing more than me’
⠀
Please note: I will not now nor will I ever sell out to a private dietitian/nutritionist/company who wants to change my information & charge GD or diabetic pregnant mothers for the pleasure of providing basic dietary info. This is not what Gestational Diabetes UK is about. It is about helping and supporting as many pregnant women with diabetes as possible for FREE so that they can achieve the best possible outcomes alongside their NHS teams 🙌🏼
⠀
⚠️So be mindful what you pay & sign up for ladies. If you have the cash to splash, then that’s completely up to you. But NO ONE should have to pay for this basic information on how to get the BEST possible pregnancy & birth with GD!

⠀
This vegan keema (or kheema) pie is an Indian-spiced plant based take on traditional shepherds pie.
⠀
A warm and spicy vegan mince keema, topped with a turmeric infused creamy coconut sweet potato mash.
⠀
By using a vegan mince which is high in protein, coconut oil and coconut cream, this helps to pair the carbs found in the sweet potatoes and peas.
⠀
Check out the recipe notes for more inspiration @ www.gestationaldiabetes.co.uk/vegan-keema-pie/

(You can of course replace the vegan meat free mince with lamb or beef mince if you eat meat)

What’s a perfect pregnancy anyway?! 🤷🏻‍♀️
⠀
Don’t let the label of GD take away from your pregnancy.
⠀
You can look at GD as a barrier to everything you expected and wanted, OR you can take the knock down, stand up, brush yourself off and make the best out of it. After all this is your pregnancy and before you know it, that wee precious bundle will be staring up at you from your arms.
⠀
I know that GD means making sacrifices, I know that it sucks to stab your finger multiple times a day, to have to plan every single thing that passes your lips and I know it’s scary and daunting if you’re told you now need to start injecting insulin, or you are no longer ‘allowed’ that water birth in the midwife led birthing unit you’d planned. BUT with each single step of this crazy GD journey, know that you’re not alone and nothing is impossible (we might just have to tweak things a bit from your perfect pregnancy plan)
⠀
We’re here to support you, we’re here to empower you and we will do our best to make this a perfect GD pregnancy! #TeamGDUK #GDUKMums #GDUKAdminTeam 🙅🏻‍♀️💁🏼‍♀️🙌🏼

Unfortunately constipation can be a common problem

Unfortunately constipation can be a common problem during pregnancy
⠀
An increase in the hormone progesterone relaxes the body’s muscles, including the intestines. Relaxed intestines means slower digestion which can lead to constipation 💩
⠀
If you are taking iron tablets for anemia, then these too can cause constipation 😩
⠀
Diet, hydration and exercise also play a huge part in the digestive heath and bowel movements.
⠀
But how can you remedy this problem when you have gestational diabetes WITHOUT spiking blood sugar levels?
⠀
💧 Drink plenty of water
🥦 Eat more green leafy veg
🥄 Add flaxseed or chia seeds into your diet
🍋 Drink hot water & lemon
☕️ A cup of real coffee in the mornings, but stay within your caffeine amounts for the day
☝🏻 Raise feet onto a stool when trying to 💩
🏃🏾‍♀️Try to stay active!
👩🏽‍⚕️ Laxatives – if natural remedies are not working then make an appointment with your GP to get a prescription for laxatives which are suitable for use during pregnancy. Commonly prescribed laxatives are Fybogel, Movicol & Lactulose (Lactulose CAN be taken with diabetes due to the way it absorbs in the bowels)
⠀
‼️AVOID the following as they will cause high blood sugar levels:
⚠️ Prunes or prune juice
⚠️ Dried fruits; figs, apricots, dates, raisins e.t.c
⚠️ Fruit juices
⚠️ High fibre breakfast cereals e.g. Weetabix, All bran e.t.c
⚠️ Molasses or sugared water

This gorgeous lower carb roasted butternut spinach ricotta & feta pie is a simply scrumptious vegetarian pie! The filo pastry top is crisp, crunchy and flaky and the filling moist sweet and tangy. What’s not to love?!
⠀
The cheese, pine nuts and poppy seeds all help to pair this dish. Because butternut squash is a higher carb vegetable and alongside the white flour Filo pastry, you should not serve this dish with any other starchy carbs.

⠀
Hands up how many of you have heard this from a healthcare professional?
⠀
Unfortunately it’s something I hear from GD mums in my support group all the time and more often than not it is straight from the mouth of a healthcare professional 🤨
⠀
So I ask you, what does a woman with gestational diabetes look like?
... overweight?
... black, Asian, or Middle Eastern?
... ‘older’?
... pregnant with multiples?
⠀
These things are known risk factors for developing GD but I need to make something clear (excuse me, I’m going to shout)

⠀
I also found that 9.8% (184 women) had 𝗡𝗢 known risk factors at all. Bearing in mind that in the majority of hospitals across the UK & ROI only higher risk women are screened for GD, I believe this figure may actually be much higher
⠀
Risk factors are just that, a factor that makes the mother higher risk of developing GD. It does not mean a mother will be diagnosed with GD if she has these risk factors and likewise it does not mean only women with these risk factors are susceptible

Cheats low carb apple crumble 😉
⠀
This isey SKYR yogurt is fat free but high protein and is gorgeous! It’s from Marks & Spencer Food
⠀
A great choice for any GD Muns who cannot eat high fat due to other dietary or health reasons
⠀
Baked apples mixed throughout make it the most delicious SKYR I’ve found yet with only 4.1g carbs and a nice 9g protein per 100g 👌🏻
⠀
Topped with just one crushed Nairn’s coconut & chia oat biscuit (6g carbs, 0.9g protein, 1.7g fat per biscuit) and you have the perfect low carb cheats apple crumble. Perfect as a snack or a sweet easy breakfast 😋
⠀
Not much of a #MealOnTheWall or a true recipe for #JosGDRecipes but an easy cheat which is yum!

This week is #BritishPieWeek and as we all know, pies aren’t the best choice with their heavy thick white pastry. HOWEVER, I am going to share a GD friendly pie recipe with you everyday this week to show you can still enjoy a pie on a GD Diet!

⠀
Whenever I cook a Sunday roast I always try to cook a piece of meat big enough so that it lasts for at least two family meals. Some meats are easier than others to create into a new meal, but when I was stuck with leftover slow cooked beef brisket the other week, I decided I wanted to try to make a Sunday roast leftovers pie!
⠀
Much like a traditional cottage pie but with lovely chunky shredded beef pieces instead.
⠀
Get creating your Sunday Roast Leftovers Pie and lets reduce food waste!
⠀
This pie is topped with cauliflower mash top, but I have also shared how best to use traditional mashed potato, sweet potato or root veg mash instead.
⠀
You can also adapt this recipe for other meats too. Check out the recipe notes for more inspiration @ www.gestationaldiabetes.co.uk/

Sooo many Mummas have fed back that they are fed up with their partners, family, friends and colleagues questioning or judging what they are eating since being diagnosed with gestational diabetes
⠀
Everyone seems to be a bloody expert!...
⠀
❓”Should you really be eating all that fat?”
⠀
❗️”All that cheese can’t be healthy!”
⠀
‼️”no wonder you have diabetes!”
⠀
⁉️”my Dad’s diabetic and he can eat what he likes”
⠀
❗️”when I had GD I just took insulin and could eat most things”
⠀
⁉️ “just have one bite, it won’t hurt you!”
⠀
❓”I think you’re taking this GD diet too far”
⠀
So I’ve created this meme for any of you who wish to share 🤣
I hope it helps 😬 Jo 💜

Ladyfingers, Italian savoiardi, French boudoirs, also sometimes known as sponge fingers are a light crisp biscuit with a soft centre, typically used in trifles and desserts such as Tiramisu for creating cake layers

Typically these biscuits are high in sugar and carbs, but I have managed to create a lower carb version which are delicious eaten on their own, or can be used in my trifle recipes, or my new Tiramisu!
