    Sliced strawberries with low fat or fat free whipped cream! I also like dry cereal if I want crunchy sweets. Chocolate soy milk is great for chocolate cravings too.

    I have a serious sweet tooth too! I often have something "bad" in controlled portions (i.e. chocolate candy). That's not really healthy/ clean, though. Sugar free Fudgdicles (40 cal ea) are good, a small box of chocolate yogurt raisins= 110 cal, and I'm going to try drizzling chocolate syrup (sugar free?) over a banana. Oh- and caramel or chocolate flavored rice cakes rock!

    explain why that is 'bad' or not 'clean'...

    I've started doing this thing lately with Fage yogurt. I get the Fage yogurt with strawberry (120 cals per serving). Then I take just a regular graham cracker or two (65 cals for one). I scoop some of the yogurt on a piece of graham cracker and then top it with a bit of the strawberry spread that comes with it. So yummy and lots of protein. Reminds me a bit of cheesecake.

    Mix 2 Tbs. of Unsweetened Cocoa Powder w/ a snack size Vanilla Greek Yogurt cup. You may freeze it to make it more like FroYo (& de-thaw it when ready to eat) or enjoy as is. Only 100 calories!

    I add Stevia or one of "Jordan's Skinny Syrups" products to my food or drink to satisfy a sweet craving.

    It may just be an age related thing in my case but all my tricks stopped working and my sugar/carb cravings kept coming back until about two weeks after I stopped eating them cold turkey and kept the number under 50 grams total daily. It seemed like for a long time every year my carb abuse just got worse until I dealt with the addiction head on when my management of carbs slipped out of my desire to control them. It is good that you all have solutions that still work for your cravings.

    I love the frozen banana slices with either pb or nutella, or both. Also love apple slices with pb and cinnamon. I really got into bananas with pb and dry powdered spirulina. Its such an odd but tasty combo. Take a creamy yogurt put in a ziplock bag and cut off a tiny piece of the corner and make dots on a slicone liner and freeze, it makes like frozen yogurt drops, kind of like dippin dotz.
