[QUOTE="Fallenstar, post: 339034, member: 36659"] Hi A couple of ideas which may help satisfy your sweet tooth without having to increase insulin injections and hopefully Smaslan help bring your Hba1c down, obviously a lower carb diet will help both of you. If you need to have a chocolate fix get the big tins of small Chocie's the Hero's ect and JUST limit your self to a few after a meal, so you can Bolus for them in with your meal, this may help with BG swings....you'll have to hide them from your self for the rest of the day :lol: Sugar free jellies with fresh cream are also a great sugar free alternative, the cream give's you the animal fat aspect of the chocolate we crave, there should be no need to Bolus for it, but you will have to test after to make sure. you may need a unit. a Coffee with cream in can help if you are craving chocolate, Also Dark chocolate is better for us and will not spike BG as much, and you really will only need a couple of pieces of that.
