Yes that's true, my wife and I enjoy a bottle of wine on a weekend, come 11pm I'm ready for bed
It's not the money I'm worried about, it's staying awake............... that's the problem
Oh no this thread should be banned. People all over the country sitting drooling and creating puddles.
Mine has grown to epic proportions and a mop is called for.
A pile of the best chips you have ever eaten in your life from the chippie in Appledore in between two doorsteps of white bread covered in thick butter and followed by an entire lardy cake from the local bakers.
I have never eaten a meal like that in my life but this thread is making me crave it. Thank goodness I don't drive or I might be out buying these goodies.
nahhhh, not for me....a huge bg spike stops me from enjoying something like that, which i suppose is a good thing as it keeps me from treating myself with anything unhealthy and keeps me enjoying low carb treats like these....
9g of carbs each though so only an occasional treat
If my teenager saw these, she would love them, I'm sure of that
oh dont, my 13 year old has a thing for cupcakes lol
Andy, they ALL seem to be cupcake mad, I would prefer a rich tea, ginger nut or a digestive biscuit,
yummy.
Bourbon creams dipped in a cup of strong black tea!!!!
if type 2, better to stick to coconut macaroons
The thread is about something you ate prior to getting diagnosed with diabetes and as much as all these low carb treats are great for people now, the OP is asking something you enjoyed before.

Do you ever let yourself indulge in something you really enjoyed before diabetes but have now given up. I do sometimes give myself a naughty treat but it is not very often anything sweet.... never did have much of a sweet tooth. Last week though it was something sweet in the form of caramel and sesame seed coated peanuts they were so yummy and I did have to be very firm with myself and not eat the whole bag I don't find eating something like that makes me want more though.
Some people say they crave starchy carbs but I did not eat very much of those anyway well not bread pasta or rice but I do miss a jacket potato as I did eat a lot of those so I will have one of those occasionally
Andy, if it's one thing I cannot stand..............it's coconut
awwww, thats a shame, your missing out
Yuk.... That would be my idea of hell. Before diagnosis and after. Though I'd have the skin bit off the top.. Good. Back to torture.......I miss homemade rice pudding,
Home made rice pudding! Gosh hadn't though of that for ages. My mum made it for me whenever I got sick when I was little, it was the only thing I'd eat.. Good. Back to torture.......I miss homemade rice pudding,
A walnut whip ...now you have done it I used to love those , maybe christmas day treat ......:***:.I remember the thread or posts on Walnut Whips a little while back as I used to treat myself with this confectionery, especially the coffee flavour 15 years before being diagnosed with type 1, It was when I started my first job at 16 with the GPO and a tiny amount of my wages went on the yummy Walnut whip from Nicolson's sweet shop/newsagents on my way to work. I felt so
