This is my 3rd Easter with diabetes! When I got diagnosed, It only took me a few week to get it under control but my first Easter ruined it all and I've been struggling ever since How is everyone else doing?

Hi there! Easter can be a struggle with T1. No reason why you can't indulge a little, though. Stay on top of the blood sugars :)

I do not have diabetes
My chocolate treat for most days is the 85% dark chocolate, you can buy from most supermarkets!
Delicious with Greek full fat yoghurt and a few frozen berries!

Why eat the rubbish stuff they call (milk) chocolate?

I found some very dark chocolate today, 100% cocoa, carbs 8g per 100, so treated myself to a bar and saving it for tomorrow when the kids have their egg hunt!

No egg for me - got a new CD instead
Poorly...I was not as disciplined as I would like like and my blood sugar jetted! I have been incorporating regiments that increase my blood flow and help manage a lot of the symptoms of being prediabetic which I am..

Easter doesnt affect me like that.

I know what you will be thinking when you read the next sentence but I dont like the easter egg itself, only the freebies you get with it. I dont like the chocolate on the big egg. And yes I know it's all the same makers chocolate but to me it tastes different. I used to do a trade off with siblings as I was growing up - you have half my egg I'll have whatever you got in yours.

Hubby now buys me a bunch of flowers or a dvd/cd etc.
