    Wrigley sugar free cool green apple (soooo flavorful) or when I want a good clean feeling no matter what - I chew Orbit Sangria flavor.

    ORBIT sugarfree bubblrmint. I buy the packs by the case and I chew a pack a day. I can't tell you how many thousands of calories this has helped me to NOT consume. :noway: :smokin:

    What does that Sangria flavor taste like? I love Orbit, but I'm getting a little tired of Spearmint. :)

    It's very fruity and sweet but with a hint of mint. You should try it, I love it.

    I like the Obit Cinnamint gum. It reminds me of those cinnamon discs I used to have as a kid.

    I find that minty flavors keep me from craving other foods, as nothing tastes good with a minty mouth. If I chew berry flavors, they taste so much better, but then my mouth just wants more sugar! Of course, the best cure-all for avoiding afternoon grazing (for me) is to brush my teeth. But if that isn't an option, I prefer Orbtiz Sweetmint.

    I like the Extra Fruit Sensations- Island Cooler gum. It is sweet, but a little tangy too. Delicious! If it were not for chewing gum, I don't know how many more calories I would consume every day, lol. They really do help keep the cravings at bay. Especially, if you are bored...... we all know what boredom can lead too..... mindless eating, and that's never a good thing.

    Supposedly chewing gum cranks up your stomach fluids, thinking it is going to eat, so you probably are feeling more hungry when you chew gum. Although, that mint suggestion, making food taste bad, is a good idea!

    Way to go Shanta on the not smoking!!! You are doing awesome! :drinker: I was a two pack a day smoker before my kids came along and I had to quit cold turkey. I've never done anything that hard in my entire life. It is very tough to quit smoking. I've read where nicotine is more addictive that some narcotics. Good for you! Keep it up!
