[QUOTE="Lenny3, post: 335426, member: 45533"] Hi, I had a very similar problem when I was diagonsed. All of a sudden I constantly craved chocolate! Also I often found after I had been to my Dads for a large plate full for dinner, I'd be looking for something to eat once I'd got home. I couldn't understand what was wrong with me. Until I realised carbs are addictive, they make you even more hungry. I have overcome this with research on here I decided to try the low carb approach. I went cold turkey so to speak, no potatos, bread, pasta or rice. I still have a small amount of 74% cocoa choc. For snacks I grab a piece of cheese or a hard boiled egg or a piece of cold meat like ham or peperami. I also discovered the low carb recipe section, there is so much great stuff in there. One thing I often snack on if I need something sweet is sugarfree jelly sweets. Make up a pack of sugar free jelly with half pint of boiling water, add 2 packets of gelatine, stir till dissolved then pour into moulds, I use silicon ice cube moulds. leave to set in the fridge overnight then store in the fridge for picking at. Good luck with whatever route you decide to take. [/QUOTE]
