Alcoholism and Sugar Addiction (and gastric bypass & diabetes)

I'm 51 days sober and eating sweets like crazy!! I had a gastric bypass several years ago and my cravings for sweets left and if I ate more than one or two bites of sweets I became ill. (not so now) Now I'm eating an absolutely unbelievable amount of sweets. I also was a diabetic before I had my bypass. It suddenly hit me last night that all of these sweets will most likely lead me back to being diabetic. That terrifies me! MANY people in my family died from diabetes. I'm almost thinking that I'd rather be an alcoholic than a diabetic. But........NO I am not going back to drinking. Going to call my dr. and make appt. to see what I can take for sugar addiction. The following articles I found to be very helpful:
