Red face Watch out for Sugar Free stuff!

Perhaps you all know this already and I'm the only dim-bulb. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last week. The doc has no doubt it's mostly due to my PCOS. Anyway - we bought sugar free/low fat ice cream bars at the store. I had only one of them. Within about 30 minutes I was in the bathroom with a very uncomfortable tummy. The pain went away, but now I'm still running in and out of there every 30 minutes...going on for about 4 hours now and it isn't showing any signs of slowing down anytime soon. In fact, it's becoming a bit bloody due to the stresses 'down there'.

I contacted ask -a- nurse and they said that treats containing sugar substitutes will have a serious effect on your bms, especially if you overindulged (which I didn't). I had 1 blasted bar (and a small one at that).

Does anyone have ANY nice treat ideas that are sweet - that a Diabetic can eat and enjoy (and keep off the toilet)? I'm not looking for "fruit and yogurt mmm" ....yuck lol

thanks in advance
