[QUOTE="lechiffre1969, post: 2356638, member: 536342"] A friend has very kindly, upon hearing of my diagnosis, bought me a Diable No Added Sugar treats box: - Chocolate chip and goji berries cookies - Coconut cream wafers - Cappuccino cream sweets - Hazelnut bars - Vanilla cookies - Dark cocoa cookies Obviously I was really touched by their generous gift and thoughts. However, upon looking at carbs levels - wow, it looks like I need to steer well clear. For example: 2x Coconut Cream Wafers = 17g carbs, 1.6g sugars, 7g polyols 1x Hazelnut Muesli bar = 20.3g carbs, 1.4g sugars, 6.8g polyols I'm still getting to grips with my allowances etc. However, my HbA1c was 126 upon diagnosis, so I'm being incredibly careful with my intake of sugars and carbs. Any thoughts on whether I should eat them? Or should I park them to one side for when I've gotten over the HUGE hurdle that I need to cross in the next few months? Thoughts really appreciated. BTW - I have to say, I'm not craving anything sweet after 5 days of being in this 'new world'. [/QUOTE]
