Is it common to be craving sugar (Candy) that is all that I have been eating lately, and that is not good when you are trying to follow Weight Watcters!! But when I do eat candy, I feel more tired, it must be that high and then the low you get with sugar!! Thanks for all of your help!!

Hi Nancy, At the age of 51, I too am having lots of sugar cravings, and I've never been a sweets junkie - always preferred salty snacks like chips or nuts. Also, my blood sugars feel really out of whack these days, so that I'm shaky an hour after eating a good meal. I'm "grazing" all day long to hold the feeling at bay. There's lots of diabetes in my family, so that's a concern, but I'm tested regularly (again just a couple weeks ago), and my blood sugars are always fine. I'm chalking this up to just another manifestation of perimenopause. FUN, FUN, FUN!!!:P:P
