    I'm one that likes something a little sweet after eating sometime too. Have you tried the Pure Protein bars? They have a smore flavor that I really like. It doesn't really taste like a smore, but it has chocolate and satisfies you. I guess what I'm saying is if you are going to have chocolate, why not have a bar that has a lot of protein in it. You get more protein for the day instead of just the sugar. :) I get them at Walmart.

    Stay strong. That is one thing that triggers for me. if I start eating sugar I can't stop. I really have to be careful. maybe fruit or a sugar free candy. Just to satisfy the taste.

    ok, so if you're pre-diabetic and you can't have any sugar, don't eat it. there's no room for you to "give in" or "slip up" or whatever. just don't eat it. problem solved.

    Yep. This. Like someone with Celiac Disease avoiding gluten. It's necessary.
