The sample was selected from services hospital Lahore. A questionnaire was used for data collection. A 24-hour dietary recall method was used to compute the nutrient intake among participants. The anthropometric measurements, body mass index and blood sugar levels were evaluated among participants of study. The study hypothesis was accepted or rejected by data analysis. The results showed that among 100 participants, a total of 42 % were moderately active, 26 % had sedentary lifestyle, 26% were lightly active and 3 % were highly active. A significant association was observed between fasting blood sugar and case control group p=0.000, and and physical activity and case control group p=0.000. Association between diet and blood sugar level was observed and results showed that null hypothesis was rejected which means both the attributes were dependent as there was association between diet and blood sugar level p=0.000.The study concluded that the comparison of both case and control group showed that high carbohydrate diet low calcium and vitamin D diet low intake of polyphenol rich fruit such as dry fruit and green leafy vegetables increased the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus.
