[QUOTE="RJW_Lon_29, post: 1803542, member: 274172"] I am lucky in that sense as my mother is full on diabetic with type 2 diabetes and has been for 23 years! I have only been borderline diabetic for two and a half years, but still find it hard to resist offer of cakes or chocolates due to my sweet tooth. My mother refuses on my behalf any offer of cakes or chocolates, especially if we have had pudding already. At this luncheon club we regularly attend every fortnight, we were offered these small chocolate cakes to have with our tea or coffee, and since we had already had ice cream and apple strudel for pudding, mum refused on both of our behalves, whereas I would have aceepted those small chocolate cakes if I had been alone without mum there to stop me accepting one. So it does help to have a diabetic parent to manage one’s borderline diabetes. Good luck to those who do not have diabetic parents. RJW_Lon_29 [/QUOTE]
