    Meant to add - this is the way I go instead of the other great options because I cannot stand artificial sweetners of any kind... even stevia (which I know is "natural) leaves me gagging.... so if you need more of a "real" sugar, the mini bars (or even the 100 calorie packs of "bad for you" things) can be a good alternative

    Dark chocolate does it for me. It's SO sweet that small amounts are pretty satisfying (to me). I'll get super-dark Ghiardelli squares (about 60 calories maybe?). Currently hooked on the Brookside dark chocolate with fruit centers, single serving packs (80 calories). You still have to save room in your budget, but it's not the worst thing. A little something sweet, better than muffins, cookies, cake, etc.

    I'm the exact same way, I have to have something sweet after dinner. I've found that a serving of large marshmallows (5) is enough to hit the spot. If I'm feeling especially fancy, I roast them over the stove. Heaven! Yes, they are basically pure sugar, but at 90 calories a serving, they're a little easier to fit in than some of the other sweets I would devour if given a chance.

    If it's such a need for you, just save 150-200 calories for after dinner and have a reasonable amount of cookies/ice cream.

    Or yeah, just stop. My husband eats probably 1000 calories of stuff when we watch TV at night... I just don't.

    The last couple nights, we've had a serving of the chocolate mousse topped with a dab of light whipped cream. :)

    That looks soooo good! I googled it and it looks like it's only available in Australia. Is that where you are?

    That is where I am! :)

    But there were similar things in Canada when I lived there. My favourite was Yoplait Source yogurt - the lemon meringue flavour in particular. It was delicious!

    The Yoplait dessert selections are great - 35 cals for 100gms. I have one almost every day - boston cream pie, cappuchinno flavour, cafe latte. The lemon only comes in the big tubs now, but I thought it tasted just like lemon meringue pie.

    I do too. My go to-s are, premier protein fiber snack bar, I usually eat that around 10pm though. And a square of pina colada cake with 2T of Tru-whip. So yummy, only 150 calories.

    Save calories throughout the day and eat a dessert
