I'm a food addict big time. My problem is more emotional rather than physical cravings.


We've been battling diabetes about the same amount of time. My eating the wrong foods was more emotional than anything else. The more I tried, the harder it got, then one day it dawned on me that I was craving something that I knew was bad for me and realized the craving was abnormal and my new way of eating was normal. By looking at my eating from a new perspective, it gave me the strength to stop my "binge snacking"..... I was abnormal before. Being free of so many meds cleared my mind also. It seems the longer it goes with BG under control, the easier this way of eating becomes. I have read and enjoyed many of your posts, by the way....
