I have diabetes type 2 for 5 years, does the intense craving for donuts, cake ever lessen or go away? I have eaten those all my life

Hello @benjamincat1, Welcome to Connect. So sorry that I missed your first post. My doctor says I'm pre-diabetic but it's not the cause of my neuropathy. I used to really crave sweets and especially donuts. I will have one occasionally now but I no longer crave them. I think I just learned to manage the cravings by not giving in to them every time I see a donut laying around and calling my name. I'm wondering if you might find the following website helpful.
