Oh..I love sweets, but I shouldn't because diabetes runs in my family. I have restricted but can't resist . I had gestational diabetes so I have to be careful. but still some more years to go so happy till then

i am not much about sweets. but if you have a diabetic nature in your family, then you have to be cautious.

I would love to be able to eat sweets and chocolate but I am watching my weight and am also diabetic. A little tip that I use for a sweet bit healthy treat is to keep some grapes or fresh dates in the freezer both are delicious eaten frozen. The dates are like chewy toffee and the grapes like boiled sweets!!

I love sweets like candies and cookies. I really shouldn't eat them because i don't want to get cavities or anything like that. I also shouldn't eat them because the risk of weight gain. But i figure some indulgence every now and then won't hurt you.
