[QUOTE="VashtiB, post: 2348606, member: 511345"] Hello and welcome, Well you have already got great advice and generally your numbers seem good. If you need treats (and I do) then I suggest look for some that are really low carb. I have diet jelly but not everyone likes those. I also sometimes have a teaspoon of peanut butter either on its own or with some cream (I actually know how that sounds but trust me is can be nice and filling and feel like a treat). I also sometimes have keto custard which is also low carb. I guess what I'm suggesting is exactly what [USER=401801]@JoKalsbeek[/USER] suggested- find treats that won't be too high carb. I find- for me- if I keep very low carb then the physical cravings are less- not always the mental cravings but I am starting to feel like that will be possible after more than 12 months very low carbing. I also am usually under 10 grams a day but have gone a bit over that a couple of times over Christmas -still less than 20 grams. If what you are doing is working for you then you really only need a little tweak to the treats and those spikes will be a distant memory. [/QUOTE]
