i had 2 diabeaties tests in my prengnacy with Coby but they came back fine.

One of the symptoms/side affects of PCOS is sugar cravings, but as diabeties is conected to PCOS i think i will prob devlop it in later life, my dad got it in his 40's and my sister had it thoughout her pregnancy so it does run in the family.

Since having the tea and buscuits, the cravings have gone....for now lol so i feel much more in control

Heres some information you might find usefull http://www.ifyouski.com/Health/Tips/Hypoglycaemia/

Perhaps look at taking a chromium suppliment and see if this helps. But this might certainly go some way to explain your weigh issues, sugar cravings and depression.

See it says their that diabeties tests can be inacurate unless taken at the time of a suger craving, so it may hav been missed. I know its often missed in pregnancy from urine test, as they are noturiously inacurate.

Have you ever had your blood sugar levels checked Layla, as you have frequent sugar cravings, you can have a quick test for free at your local chemists.

Dont worry the two choclate biscuits are a drop in the ocean, will really not make a difference.

Layla, im reading your diary everyday and wonder about trying ti myself for a week just to see if i could do it, also to see if i do loose any weight (see if i can get any weightloss without needing help of metformin)
