Sweet food

[TillyTot]

Hello.
I would like to know if anyone eats any cake biscuit sweets or milk chocolate? I find it so depressing to think no more treats for ever. I'm prediabetic and thought I would give it a try. I made some apple crumble made with oat and porridge topping the whole thing only had a half a cup of sugar and I felt terrible after, it was a very small bit, i fell into a deep sleep and when I woke up felt terrible bad headache and a hangover so I'm thinking no more sugar ever. I'm thinking of trying a sweetener but they have always upset my stomach. Has anyone else had this problems with the falling asleep?

I still make cakes but I reduce the amount of sugar I put in and we have them as a treat. I avoid crumbles are they are too sweet for us. It's funny but now that I have more or less cut out sugar, I find cakes and biscuits far too sweet, so rarely eat them. I make custard and add sweetener after it has been cooked and the same with stewed fruit.

I know members on here still eat chocolate and they will advice on the best brands to buy.

No, no and no sorry. Not what you wanted to hear I know, but they are no good for my BG. As Sue has said you can make cakes WJ on the diet forum puts up some super recipe's.

I had one teeny tiny cake last Sunday - the first one in literally months and afterwards my levels were really high for me, so none for me for the foreseeable future. It's not worth it.
