Angelina Jolie Has Gestational Diabetes

Sometimes my job is really, really funny. Like for instance, I am reporting on the fact that Angelina Jolie has gestational diabetes... what?! I couldn't pass this up. It's always so AMAZING how the rags get SUCH inside scoop. I mean, how does Star Magazine know that Angelina is suffering from diabetes? And who are all these insiders?! We never see Angelina with anyone except her children and Brad Pitt. Is Zahara acting up again!?

But no more! "Angie has gestational diabetes," an insider tells Star. "She found out about a month ago and has been trying to keep it under wraps. She's been seeing a nutritionist about it - ” frequently." In fact, she's had to drastically change her diet, which has not been easy, considering her history of food issues. At one point, as she grieved for her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, her weight plummeted to 98 pounds. "She doesn't pay much attention to food," her brother, James Haven, admits. "But it's different when she's pregnant."
Gestational diabetes isn't Angie's only problem: She's also dealing with painful edema - ” swelling caused by fluid buildup. "Her feet are so swollen that her shoes have gone up a half size at least," a source tells Star.

PS - I had gestational diabetes with my first child and it was one of the hardest things to manage. I'm ITALIAN and I love my pasta. A half a cup just doesn't cut it! :)
