[QUOTE="anniep, post: 192728, member: 27533"] Roxy I find as a woman there are times when I just can't say no to chocolate. When that happens I eat some 85% dark chocolate, this is quite low sugar - for a chocolate - and the high fat content slows down the absorption of it, and a strip of it does no damage to my BG levels. Most of the supermarkets do a verison of it. It is an acquired taste and will never be my favourite cadburies but it serves it's purpose and satisfies that craving. Sadly though it is just as high in calories as any other chocolate... Other people use the sugar free jellies to satisfy their cravings fo sweet things, some people find fruits, generally the berries such as blueberries and rasperries don't effect their BG levels. But some fruits such as grapes send me sky high. But for us T2's who are oral medicine or diet only, then there is not as much leeway as people on insulin have for a sugary treat. Anniexx [/QUOTE]
