I think one of the best I got was " If you eat chocolate will it kill you "

It does, you know, but it is painful and takes a bit of time. There are many different types of painkillers though and prescriptions are free so yes, eat chocolate.

Going to be a bit cheeky here, Im doing a university project about making a more compact blood glucose meter since i have a similar problem with carrying everything in my bag, if anyone has a spare few minutes could they fill it in? https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2Q6S2QL
Sorry for being cheeky and asking, but thanks if anyone does fill it in :)

Ive had that soo many times! My nan always buys me and siblings a selection box at christmas but the first christmas after I was diagnosed she brought my brothers and sisters the usual selection box but I got a diary?! She said well your not allowed chocolate now!
 
I didn't know anyone with diabetes before I was diagnosed so didn't know much about the implications of certain foods. Saying that i wouldn't dream of telling someone what they can and can't eat. Since being diagnosed myself I must say it's really annoying when people make assumptions of what you can and can't eat.
 
Eat what you want as long as you're carb counting and adjusting your insulin in relation. People never understand that.
