[QUOTE="pollyr, post: 144833, member: 27547"] Hi Sarah I do really sympathise with you and love chocolate too, so mood enhancing, however not good and I have cut down my choc treats after being very ill for 18months and now on insulin. Could it be that as you say your diet is not great, you perhaps could try to improve it by introducing other foods which would fill you up and help you stay fuller for longer rather than the empty calories your choc gives you. I know you dont want the fruit and veg but it is defo better for your health. You dont say if you are able to exercise but if you are then would it help take your mind of the choc. I am house trained now to have only about 2 pieces of very dark chocolate a few evenings each week and this doesnt seem to 'up' my levels but it has taken lots of self discipline to reach this stage. Some lovely low sugar recipes on this post and I will be trying them. Good luck with your problem and hope the thought of a better healthier life will get you through this. take care Polly [/QUOTE]
