[QUOTE="smidge, post: 237537, member: 29301"] Hiya! I'm Type 1.5 (LADA) on insulin, so forgive me for crashing the Type 2 forum! However, thought it might help you to know how chocolate affects me. If I eat even a small amount (2 or 3 squares) of e.g. Dairy Milk, it hits my BGs within 15 minutes. By 45 minutes, my BG will be in double-figures. Then it falls really, really quickly. By the two-hour mark, I can be in a mild hypo or just above. The only way you'll know if something like this is happening to you is to test frequently for a couple of hours after eating the chocolate. I find it impossible to jab the right dose at the right time for chocolate, so I have to give it a miss altogether. Smidge [/QUOTE]
