Can I inject for chocolate?

[RosieDred]

So I bought a chocolate bar yesterday. I haven't had one since I was diagnosed with type 1 in November, which is pretty good going since I used to eat about 3 a day most days.

I still haven't eaten it nor do I know yet if I should. If I add the carbs to my lunch count can I just inject the extra I need to cover it and have it after my lunch?

Yes, I have chocolate, biscuits & cake. I don't go mad and I test to make sure my BG is spiking too high. But I certainly allow myself treats as the rest of my diet is healthy and I'm not anywhere close to being overweight.. I count carbs and so far have never had any problems.

Aye, nothing wrong with a wee treat now and then!

Thanks both. I had some last night with my evening meal but my sugars went up to 14, so maybe I won't do it again lol
