[QUOTE="Energize, post: 1331530, member: 28960"] I used to eat a LOT of chocolate but once diagnosed as diabetic (Type 2) I did try to stop/lessen the amount I ate. I've got a VERY sweet tooth, I have to say but, since low carbing, I've actually lost the urge to eat it. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to scoff a whole bar of chocolate right now but, I know it will not do me any favours healthwise. Carbs are funny things. They seem to be addictive but, since I've stopped eating them, I don't crave for them. If I feel I need a 'nibble' of something, I get some cheese or walnuts and a coffee with cream ;) That sorts it out for me :) Before I started reducing carbs, I looked at what foods were 'allowed' when low carb-ing and I felt that no-way would I be able to do this diet. However, I gradually cut carbs, saw the benefits on my meter which encouraged me to continue. As I had said, I don't 'crave' for carbs now but I could certainly love eating some if it wasn't for the issues related, plus the re-awakened craving for chocolate, bread etc etc etc ;) I hope you find a solution ;) Good luck [/QUOTE]
