Low-cal quick sweets

skinniwantabe

Does anyone know of/or have a list of some low-cal quick sweets that you can buy at the grocery store. I need something sweet around 3 pm (at work) and then I need something again around 9 pm (at home)....any thought will be appreciated!!!

For a sweet in the afternoon I like Annie's bunny grahm friends. Its an all natural cookie/grarhm cracker like thing. They are 130 calories for 28 cookies. And for evening I really like chocolate vita muffins which can be found in the freezer section of most stores and only need to be heated in the microwave for a minute. They are 100 calories per serving and have 9 grams of fiber. Hope this helps.

Have you tried that new KRAVE cereal by kellogs... mmmmm its amazing. They have a double chocolate version too. I would def recommend it. It satisfy my sweet tooth. Its about 120 calories 4 grams of fat and 3 fibers per 3/4 cup. But that sure beats a candy bar or something worse :P

I usually keep a small bar of dark fancy chocolate on me. When I crave sweets all I really need is a small bit and the craving goes away. The dark chocolate feels decadent, but apparently provides some nice health benefits other than satisfying a craving. In fact, I just had a square of Dagoba's Lavender Blueberry Dark Chocolate - so good!

Also, some family gave me two boxes of girl scout cookies, so instead of plowing through the whole box, I portioned out the cookies into single serving bags (about 4 cookies a bag). A serving runs about 120 calories, which isn't bad. I just throw a bag in my car before a long day.

Good luck!!

Fruit of most kinds is a favorite of mine, but also love Some wheat thins now and again. I try to avoid anything with aspartame or corn syrup because of the potential health consequences. I slip now and again for treats or not reading the label when on impulse buys but would eventually like to be diligent enough to avoid that stuff all together.

Angel Food cake....I love it and it is low in calories and fat. It does have the sugar in it, but to me it is worth it

Hi! I have a hard time resisting sweets, too. My go-to after-dinner treat is Dulce de Leche sugar free Jell-O pudding cups (or any of the flavors that are sugar free). I think they are only 60 calories, and they satisfy my sweets craving at night (I mean, mostly) During the day I turn to fruit- blueberries, strawberries, apples, oranges, etc. If I need chocolate, I try to stick to bite-sized candies, or a small handfull of chocolate chips or a couple of hershey kisses.

omg the chocolate truffles bars are soooo good and 100 cal..works perfect for me when I'm craving something sweet. Also idk if your a coffee drinker, but sometimes when I am craving something sweet, i'll have a cup of coffee with some flavored creamer.

It's getting towards the end of the season for them, but I have been LOVING clementines. They're so sweet and easy and 45 calories. Yum!

Made some low cal chocolate dipped macaroons this weekend. Only 71 calories each and they are decadent! Message me if you want the recipe. Or my favorite is a handful of blueberries or raspberries!

I usually have 1 or 2 pieces of dove dark chocolate around 3 at work and after dinner lately i've been having a schwan's strawberry popsicle... only 40 calories

About a cup of berries topped off with some light whipped cream does the trick for me... I think the fruit is about 90 cals and a serving of light whipped cream is 15-20. That is, of course, if you can keep it to a serving.

I don't really have anything much to add that's not already been posted! The pre portioning things is a must for me. My daughter is a Girl Scout and we have tons of cookies in the house, and I made sure i portioned them out.

The windex on the leftovers sounds a a bit crazy. why keep leftovers in the house if you're going to spray them with something..why not just throw them out or make sure you watch your potions? odd.

My grocery store carries Irene's all natural biscotti that are 20 - 25 calories per cookie. They come in a variety of flavors. The chocolate almond really hits the spot for me. I sometimes pair it with a glass of skim milk for a snack.

Fudge pops work well for me! Nice chocolatey flavor but only about 60 calories.

I like just a 1/2 cup of normal Great Value brand frozen, sliced and sweetened strawberries. 150 calories, can last a while if you eat slowly. Add a couple tablespoons of light whipped topping for only another 20 or so calories!
