Yes, diabetics have a "special relationship" with sugar.
It's not that we can't have it, in fact in some cases it's important to have jellybeans on hand in case the sugar levels drop. It's really about balance of the sugar levels in the blood. Mine were way too high at the beginning but the medication brings it down somewhat.

For the most part, my diet is fine and I really have to watch the carbohydrates.
