    Banana boats (Girl Scout inspired)

    Cut an unpeeled banana length wise along inside curve. Cut into it pretty deep but don't cut down to the peel on the other side. Fill it with a tbsp semi sweet chocolate chips and cook in microwave or oven until the chocolate melts.
    Easy, fast, and so good.

    Halo ice cream is the bomb! They have several flavors and it actually tastes good! My favorite are chocolate, PB chocolate, and mint chocolate chip. Hmmm.... can u tell I have a love for chocolate ;)

    Halo ice cream sandwiched in between graham crackers. 1 graham square is only about 35 calories, even the chocolate ones. :smile:

    I brush my teeth. Or, I use a strong cinnamon candy. They say, cravings dir sweets might be due to a magnesium deficiency....

    Silly idea, but if it's night time, I brush my teeth. It's my way of telling my body the days game is over. I forget about the craving pretty fast

    I usually just have something small that fits in my calories. When I first started changing my diet, I got the chocolate crunch rice cakes and spread sure butter on them. Sometimes I would add Ovaltine to vanilla Oikos, and that was amazing. :) I still indulge. As long as it doesn't comprise a huge portion of your calories, you will be fine with a once in a while treat.

    I chew sugar free gum (0 cal), make a protein shake with graham cracker protein powder and almond milk (165 cal), or have a bag of Planter's NUTrition wholesome nut mix. It has cashews, almonds, and macadamia nuts (210 cal per bag). The macadamia nuts really hit the spot when my sweet tooth emerges!

    I always leave some calories for sweets; can't seem to do without them. I love 100 calorie kettle corn (microwave packs) or a couple of dark dove chocolates (or Hershey's special dark miniatures). Today I bought a chocolate cake mix and an angel food cake mix so that I can make the minute-mug-cakes. They're great. I also love the Fiber One Lemon cookie bar.
