Sugary Snacks are Killin' me >.<
I am keeping track on my meals here on MFP, and I am pretty much where or slightly under where I should be....except for sugar.

Need something sweet?
My cousin gave me this tip: If I feel like I want ice cream, eat frozen lite cool whip instead. It has almost the same texture as ice cream, and only 20 cal for 2 tblsp. I even put a few drops of Hershey Syrup on it.
