    King Cake! It's SO hard to watch what you eat in Southern Louisiana! Especially when King Cake (Mardi Gras) is around and crawfish season is coming up! God help me during crawfish season!!

    Honestly...nothing! :( All my favorite treats I haven't been able to eat in over a year since I'm dairy free due to pretty bad lactose intolerance (easier to be dairy free then play the hit or miss game with dairy products!) Okay well there is something... I do love pistachios, almonds, peanuts...any type of nuts! Yummmmm...definitely could not live without those!

    "Kid" cereals...Cap'n Crunch, Lucky Charms, you name it! I'd sit on the couch and munch on a bowl of dry cereal like some people eat popcorn!!! Most of them aren't too bad calorie wise but loaded with sugar. I still have it, but limit to about 1/2 dry cup and eat 1 piece at a time...:)

    Love the Skinny cow ice creams! Such a treat and I feel like I am cheating. I particularly like the carmel vanilla cone and the ice cream sandwiches...yummy!

    My favorite "naughty" treat is always some kind of iced coffee, like a Starbucks Frappuccino or something. :laugh:

    Marshmallows. I've forced myself to switch to fat free 5 calorie ready whip which works most of the time. But nothing better than a good Jet Puff :) The strawberry one's are awesome.
    My new motto is Cancer loves Sugar.... so I'm avoiding sugar at all costs while my best friends husband battles his last few months of life, I'm giving up marshmallows for her. But...it's my "can't live without" treat.

    Peanut Butter. Just on a spoon (or liberally applied to most any food). I now let myself have one TBSP a week. I tried the natural stuff but it just doen't do it for me.

    Once a week? OMG - I eat peanut butter almost every day - 1 Tbsp on whole wheat toast with an apple or banana for breakfast. Keeps me nice and full all AM.

    I can't give up my coffee or red wine. The latter I've cut WAY back on, but I can't get rid of it completely. Cheese too - it sneaks in a couple days. You can keep your sweets! I'm a salt-tooth (popcorn is heaven).

    Ice cream! I have a horrible sweet tooth! My first inclination was M&M's. I was going to measure some out in little baggies but didn't think I would do it. So, now I have 2 weight watchers dark chocolate raspberry bars when I have a craving.

    I never even considered giving up my decaf coffee!! Everything else is negotiable. :-)

    Hershey's chocolate (including kitkats, reese's, kisses, etc.) and smores poptarts! Last night I had a whole hershey's bar before dinner and only had enough calories to eat 1/2 cup of egg substitute and a piece of toast for dinner. Lol. Sometimes I'll eat a package of poptarts for lunch too. Poptarts are 400 calories per pack! Ugh! :) I love them though. Ever since I started "dieting" I've had a huge sweet tooth. Before, I used to HATE anything sweet. Haha.

    Fellow Marshmallow Fiend here! The homemade ones at Whole Foods are mmmmmmmmmmm
    "Cancer loves sugar" is a really good motto. I have such a sweet tooth but I've come a long way in giving up my candy cravings.

    Ice Cream. I HAVE to have it every night. But I've switched from "ice cream", to Edy's juice bars - Orange and cream. It tastes sweet and ice creamy, but is only 80 calories and no fat.

    I would have said chocolate about a month ago but sadly have become severely lactose intollerant just recently. One piece makes me sick so it is now completly off limits.
    I mentioned to my husband recently that chocolate was my nemisis and wished there was a way to conquor it. He actually had the nerve to remind me of this comment and told me to be careful what you wish for . . . . . . funny guy!

    They do have chocolate chips that are non dairy/gluten free at whole foods.. I love them.. 70 calories for 2 TBS. You could melt them down and do all sorts of stuff with em.. Just a thought... Everyone should be able to enjoy chocolate :D. ( In moderation of course)

    I like to have an occasional frap or hot drink from Starbucks on a Sunday. Normally, I get iced coffee for myself, but my dad pays on Sundays, so I like to take advantage of it. :)

    I am learning some new, wonderful ideas here, people! Thanks for sharing!
