Thank you.

I always refuse that test. I am not high risk for it, and it seems stupid to me to ingest 50 grams of carbs in 10 minutes, when I barely ingest that amount all day. I know my body way better than anyone else!

You'll be fine. Lots of proteins will help.
Thank you. Wow! I had to chug it in 5 min! I had 100 grams this morning and feeling yucky. I was shocked I failed. Hoping for better results today.
