[QUOTE="Timostags, post: 1916401, member: 490251"] Hi Matteo I have always been a sugar addict. My diabetes has been quite badly managed not outrageous but when when I joined this forum I started to realise that there was also lot more I could be doing to get things more controlled. For the past month or so my control has been a lot better (still some way to go) but one thing I have noticed is that I don't crave sugar anymore and have started to think that it wasn't an addiction to sugar but my body telling me that I needed more energy. That is now coming from the correct dosage of insulin. I think my body still associated sugar as fuel even though it didn't have the correct insulin to turn that fuel into energy. I now look in the fridge and have cake that's going off because I bought it out of habit but never ate because I don't have the cravings anymore. [/QUOTE]
