However, as regards glucose, I take 2 spoons of sugar in a cup of tea, put a spoonful over my cornflakes, snack all day long on cakes and chocolate biscuits, and eat several Mars bars and chocolate bars in the evening, washed down with a pint of beer! My weight? 126 pounds, the same as it has been since I was in my teens. In fact I have developed into eating so much sweet things in order to try and gain weight, but it is impossible.
Best wishes
Ron

Ron, man after my own heart, only with me it's ice cream. When I add too much regular food, I gain weight. So I eat two regular and one or two bowls of ice cream. It's the best i can do...that it, it is what it is.
