diabetic chocolate

[fatbutnot4long]

hi all was wondering.. i dump reallyt bad with anything sweet but was wondering if we can have diabetic stuff? as my totm all i want is some kind of choc! xx

I've not tried it (choc was a real problem for me) but I know Cuppa has had some. I think that you have to be careful with eating more than a square or two, something to do with getting the runs!

I can't answer at all but have heard others say they eat plain choc rather than milk as this satisfies the sweet tooth with just a bit rather than a lot....

hth and i get the totm thing with chocolate although pre op i could wrestle a samurai warrior with sword for chocolate when its that special time lol xx

I useed to have the dark diabetic chocolate from Thorntons and their diabetic toffee and turkish delight bars early days when I had the urges with no problems other than the runs when I had more than the recommended amount.

If you a really small amount you should be ok, but it is really bad for wind and runsIt's the sorbitol that causes this

choc urges

Hi

I have Atkins Advantage bars - lots of different kinds (my fave is the Chocolate Peanut one). They have 18 to 20 g of protein as well as no sugar

but also use Skinny Cow hot chocolate drink and understand that the Skinny Cow ice cream bars are good too

hth

I looked at the Skinny Cow hot choc in Morrisons this morning, but it had 'added sugar and sweetner' written on so I put it back!!

I have had Boots diabetic chocolate a few times and been fine, no dumping nor wind/diarrhoea.

and also Boots sell them

You can buy Atkins stuff at boots or tesco's do a small range. Or you can get a job lot online I think Avidlite do them (low carb website) or Atkins own website. Saying that, I had a very small amount of dark choc (85% cocoa) and was fine. Had 2 squares as I had a horrendous TOTM this time and didn't dump.

Chocolate options?

 

[gillabean]

Kirsty, I'm like you and dump on anything. I dumped on two gulps of orange juice (the hotel must use the added sugar stuff) but I can have Options hot chocolate with no problems at all. It helps my cravings!

Hi
I've made myself hot chocolate today with Green & Blacks organic cocoa powder, milk & splender.

I was a bit anxious as this was my 1st attempt with it, but I've not had any problems.

I've invested in a bar of Green & Blacks 70% dark chocolate so I can have some shavings of it on my sugar free deserts!
