[QUOTE="evilclive, post: 1910015, member: 488171"] Sitting next to the fridge, eating everything we can find in there, is something many of us know well. My "need something fast!" hypo treatment (for when things are bad, not just a dip into the 3s) is jelly babies, but only a small bag. I now know that 6 full size jelly babies will get me out of pretty much anything, which removes the temptation to binge further - if I had a big bag I would be very likely to over do it. I might even get away with 4 - needs experimentation (the 6 comes from the little mini bags of 9 2/3 size ones, which are no longer made. I've got a stock of little ziplock bags to split the big bag into.) I've never been a fan of dextrose tablets - I don't feel the need to have to eat something unpleasant just because I'm hypo :-) [/QUOTE]
