A note about chocolate: my favorite is Ghirardelli Intense Dark Citrus Sunset (60% cacao) with orange bits and caramel crunch. According to the label on the back, 3 squares = 21g of carbs. I can usually settle for 2 squares, which only cost me 14g. And actually, according to the dietician at the hospital (my doctor sent me to a nutrition class), you can subtract the "dietary fiber" carbs to bring the total down even further. So I can squeeze in some, a couple times a week.
