Period and being Type-1 diabetic...

I've grown to like very dark chocolate. Tesco's 84% has been on special offer here so I've been eating that. My other chocolate hit is the cadbury's options hot chocolate.

Laughing Hyena, if you love dark bitter chocolate, you can't beat Alsi Moser Roth 85% cocoa! It comes in a handy pack of 5 x 25 gramme bars and all for around £1, a perfect treat & with the individual bars, it's easier not to have just that extra square :wink: at just 5.5g carb per little bar, it's perfect for chocoholics.

Revontuli - can't offer any solutions I'm afraid; they don't call it the curse for nothing! I have very recently seemed to notice that I need more insulin in the days leading up to the start of mine, I found some research which supports this as well, so be careful. However, at the end of the day, if you can't stop craving sugar, have it at a mealtime & dose up with extra insulin to cover it, it won't kill you once a month.
