I am going to give up chocolate for Lent. Before diagnosis I would normally have a bar of chocolate everyday ( still have a 99 calories bar most days even now).

Hope I can achieve this and hopefully won't feel the need for a chocolate fix everyday after Lent has finished.🙂
 
I haven't eaten any chocolate since a week after diagnosis in early January and I don't crave it either. of course I did for about 10 days ... but after then I was fine. I have no problem passing the sweetie isle in the supermarket and I've managed to do my grandson's 'packup' all week and add a choc biscuit to the sandwich box without even sniffing it😱

hope it works for you 🙂
 
Shei good luck hun you can do it xx
 
Good luck with it Sheilagh. I have given up chocolate for Lent a few times and after the first few days have found that I don't really miss it that much. Still look forward to Easter Sunday though and all the eggs. Last year was my first year as a diabetic and just had one egg. It was enough.

Now crisps - oh my word I miss them so much.
