Not trying to be alarmist but have you been tested for diabetes?

[dinkydoo]

maybe because its wintertime and rainy and dull..u dont feel good and u need some choc or sweet stuff ??? thats the way i feel sometimes

a craving for sweet things isn't a symptom of undiagnosed diabetes. it's probably just a phase you're going through and will pass.

funny you should say that dinkydoo, but I am having the same problem.
I do have a sweet tooth normally but I seem to be out of control.
I have had a test for diabes results this week but that was for a bladder problem I have had.

A simple blood and urine test will spot if anything is amiss and you should ask your GP for this. Recently I have found Hoodia excellent for helping control hunger pangs. It is crazily expensive at Hollands and barret but you can buy reasonable and reputable sources online.
