    FRUIT. ive found that now that ive been staying away from the crap i normally indulge on (cheese danishes are my weakness), i enjoy fruit much much more. even the dreaded apples. i hated eating them and now they are like desert.

    Try plain Greek yogurt with sugar free preserves. Very thick and sweet and wonderful! My favorite is boysenberry.

    YUM! Boysenberry sounds SOOO GOOD! I'm trying this tomorrow!

    Chocolate covered raisins/almonds, nonfat greek yogurt w/fruit on the bottom, tablespoon of nutella with strawberries/bananas/pretzels, etc., mini rice cakes (caramel, chocolate or apple). Nuts have the good fat (monounsaturated) so it's fine. Be sure to measure ALL of your food though and wait at least an hour before going back for more, you probably won't need it then.

    Heres my three tips :)
    1. Eat fruit (sugar melon omg tastes like candy)
    2. Get a bucket of fireballs or those cinnamints from tacobell pop one when you get a craving (I used this to stop smoking but it works for sweets too)
    3. Have sex. My manager told me when I was trying to quit smoking to have sex everytime I wanted a ciggarette, it works for sweet stuff too though I'm assuming, plus its a fun work out :)

    I'm loving the skinny cow or weight watchers sundae cups, just over 100cal and they really feel naughty. During the day I find a fresh date takes the edge off, they're SO sweet and delish. Good luck!! Watching this thread with great interest, as being only 4 weeks in myself I'm still finding it tricky to not go back to old habits and binge on sweetness!

    Ooh apples and honey I have to try that! I've had a small taste of apple with honey and a piece of cheese and it was divine, but I can leave off the cheese and bet it will still be good!

    Sugar free jello (10 calories) with Free Cool Whip on top (another 10 calories) really hits the spot...if you need the chocolate try a tablespoon of Nutella spread over a rice cracker, it will really take care of your sweet tooth and your chocolate craving, I eat sweets every day and its usually chocolate! I also buy Trader Joe's 100 calorie chocolate bars, they come in dark and milk chocolate and they are perfect, I also eat Meringue cookies , I can have 4 good size ones for about 110 calories and they are super sweet, they come in all flavors and I get them at Trader Joe's...good luck!

    You can slice up an apple and put cinnamon and sweet and low on it and eat those....takes the edge off and gets you the sweet taste.

    I agree with the sugar free pudding cups. The Jello Chocolate mousse temptations are 60 calories. Sugar Free Fudgcicles are also really good.

    Omg, sliced apples with peanut butter - almost tastes like a caramel apple! It's sooo good.
