    I'm avoiding any type of added sugar or sweeteners for health reasons. Yesterday for a small sugary treat, I browned a slightly overripe banana in some ghee (clarified butter). It was surprisingly delicious and it hit the spot! :) Good luck!

    I blend up one frozen banana (slightly over-ripened) 1/4 cup milk, and an entire tablespoon of cocoa powder. It is sooooooo so so yummy (a whole tablespoon of cocoa might be too much for you but it kicks my chocolate craving in the butt).

    Deserts and stuff are fine in moderation. Just make sure you're not also hungry. That's why I like my banana treat -- the banana is really satisfying to my tummy. Not just to my tastebuds. If you have one sweet but you're a bit hungry that sweet treat will turn into ten. Drink a lot of water with your treat as well.

    I also like Chobani coconut yogurt. I add a little bit of chocolate syrup (I measure the syrup). It's like an almond joy but better and more satisfying.


    (Sorry I keep going back to chocolate. I love chocolate!!!)
