Your diet is one of the most important aspects to consider when you have type II diabetes 

Question 1: Can you eat desserts?
 
Yes! You can eat anything you like. The key is to watch your blood sugar and only eat sweet treats on special occasions. Have a quarter of what you’d usually have and savour every mouthful.
 
If you find yourself craving sweet treats or desserts often, have a piece of fruit instead, says WebMD.
 
Question 2: Should you eat snacks between meals?
 
Absolutely! You need to keep your blood sugar levels stable when you have type II diabetes. It’s best to eat smaller, healthier meals throughout the day, eating every three hours! Try these healthy, diabetic-friendly snacks to add to your diet. (LINK)
IMAGINE: Not worrying about your blood sugar ALL the time!

Question 3: Should you skip a meal if you’re going to have a big meal later on?
 
No! If you skip a meal, your blood sugar will drop making you crave sugary foods. When you’re hungry it’s more likely that you’ll give in to your cravings, so always eat a small meal despite “preparing” for a big meal later on in the day.
 
Question 4: Should you skip a meal if your blood sugar is high?
 
No! Even if your blood sugar is high before a meal, eat what you’d normally eat and take your medications as prescribed. If you skip a meal when your blood sugar is high and you don’t eat, you won’t be able to take your medications and it will remain high.
 
There you have it. We hope this helps you to control your type II diabetes a little better when it comes to your diet.
