[QUOTE="Sweet3x, post: 10395, member: 8101"] an end to sugar puffs, coke and red bull. Not that I ever had them, anyway. But when I was a kid, I always vowed that I'd do all the stuff I wasn't allowed to by mum when I was grown up. This included eating sweets in the street, eating sugary cereals and drinking proper coke. I can eat sweets now - there is a fantastic shop in Stafford with a whole shelf of sugar free sweets, including jelly babies,btw. Coke - well, it's just not something I actually really want to try, but well, I feel that I can't ever, now. Red Bull - smells disgusting, but same as for coke. I'll never get to try it. Sugar Puffs - this really hurts :( I had them, once, at my cousins, and loved them. This was before I got diabetes. Never had them since. Wouldn't even consider having them, either. By the way, playing the 'you never let me eat sweets in the street when I was a kid, and now I won't ever be able to' worked really well at getting my own way, sometimes :D Mum felt (still does, although obviously she's no need to) guilty about that for years. (I wasn't that mean, by the way - I didn't actually hold it against her or play on it. But it was great as a young adult to bring that up.) [/QUOTE]
