    I faced the same problem when I started out. I agree with everyone who has said to start with carbs. For me that means every morning, I have oats with a scoop of chocolate protein powder. If you make the oats up with water, but then mix in a scoop of protein powder, it tastes like coco pops but is very low in sugar and high in protein - but sweet tasting.

    The other thing nobody is mentioning is sugar substitutes. There is a lot of controversy about some of them - personally, I would avoid agave syrup AT ALL COSTS - but I have found stevia is an absolute awesome sugar substitute. If I really want a treat, a hot chocolate made with stevia-based drinking chocolate will do the trick, and a tablespoon is only about 5 calories.

    Stevia is sold by a few different companies who call the product different things. They're all good though.
