[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2143407, member: 503481"] There are a lot of nice LCHF/keto desserts, which doesn't affect your blood glucose much. But if you had to compare 1/8th of a cake vs a nice keto mug sponge cake with extra cream and a few strawberries, which is more satisfying? Sometimes I look at the amounts of carbs and think for 1 piece of brownie that isn't worth insulin for it. I know if I touch it, I'm going to eat more of it. However an occasional cake is fine, you just need to judge whether it is worth eating for that blood glucose spike after testing. For me, sometimes I just want a taste, so a small piece of dark chocolate - they're usually in nice squares, I have one or two pieces and then stop. I'm satisfied because I got a taste. [/QUOTE]
