I hate regular coke too, I have been on Diet sodas for 18 years now, regular stuff gives me a massive headach.
I try to mix it up. If I'm home and haven't had enough dairy for the day I'll do a cup of skim milk. Out and about I stick with the small boxes of juicy juice or candy corn (my current favorite). The candy corn I have indicates it is 2 grams of ca...
also very high carb.
i like to eat as little as possible to get my sugar up, and the oranges are great for that. Just hve to make sure to get them out of the can: nothing sucks worse than trying to open a tin can with your sugar in the 40s

Quite right. Chocolate is NOT a reasonable thing to use for hypos since the fat can slow absorption so much that it doesn't raise bg until AFTER your liver releases an overdose of glycogen to bring it back up, THEN the chocolate finally adds a hig...
I agree with Dave and Zoe, treating a hypo is the same as a bolus, not a pleasure or reason for indulgance. I do however, eat almost all of the food mentioned here as normal foods that are covered, in moderation, by normal boluses.
Skittles (hard...
haaa :) ooh the smarties sound great! Hadn't thought of the madarines tho :) Very healthy :)
I also have mandarine oranges (bottled though...) And yes...smarties or skittles. Sometimes I can get away with a bite of Snicker bar. (Its alctually not necessary but I just love Snickers LOL)
Canned Mandarine Oranges! I keep half a can in a tupperware in the fridge at all times... my away-from-home treat is smarties! three rolls of sugary perfection to get me back on track. My biggest problem is telling everyone "no" when I'm eating them!
oh wow! Sounds guuuurd :)
Why do they not have those over here?! :(
A pop tart is an iced pastry with fruit filling that you stick in the toaster.
Me too, Zoe. The only thing I ever use for treating lows is juice. Most "goodies" also have fat, which slows carb absorption. When I'm low, my only concern is getting back to a normal range.
ahh that's clever :) I'm one of the very few people who actually cannot stand coke or many other fizzy drinks so i don't miss them :)

- hey katy, just wanted to say hello! i'm from the UK as well and there aren't that many of us on here, so i always think it's pretty cool when i find someone else who speaks in mmol/l rather than mg/dl.. :D i was diagnosed on july 6th 2007, and i was 14 as well (i'm 17 now) so we both went through the diagnosis at about the same age.. bit of a shock, eh? hope you're doing well with everything, i'm here if you ever need to talk to someone else who's "been there" or want advice or help with anything.
