SAME! I have, however, ODDLY, trained myself like a seal on cookies. I get TWO. Tops, 3.

You're better at this than I am. I can't even keep cookies in the house. If I buy something sweet it's generally one portion.

Oh! In that case... If you have a dollar tree nearby, buy one of two little single serve cookie packs at a time so if you eat them all up you at least have to wait 'til you can get back to the store to buy more.

Excellent plan!

Another NONPROFESSIONAL NOT HEALTH ADVICE TIP. Put cinammon on your sweet stuff. A little cinnamon takes my sugar way down fast. Probably different for different people but I was putting it in coffee and had to stop because I was going low too often. Just ground cinnamon.

Yep, I'm all over the cinnamon, which I really love. I used to take it in capsule form. I can't remember why I stopped.

If my A1C is up I'm probably gonna look at getting some cinnamon capsules instead of going back on those horrid pills.

Someday I'll tell you my story of my year of psychosis and how I stopped believing in diabetes and all medication, stopped eating and drank only stuff with sugar. My A1C was unbelievable. I'm right around 7 now. I'm lucky I'm not dead and no permanent damage to anything. That was a wild ride.

When I was diagnosed I was drinking literally 5 or 6 44 ounce regular Mt. Dew Code Red fountain drinks per day. They almost hospitalized me, my AIC was so damn high. It would not read that high on their office equipment.

The higher the glucose goes, the more dehydrated we become and the more we drink. My skin couldn't even absorb lotion.

I can relate to this.

Maybe it was taking you low, too.

Awe! It took serious training for me. I guess the "you can't have that" supervisor who took me for shopping helped.
