    I heard that if you eat potato products, it keeps your craving for sweets down.
    I keep a bowl of mashed potatoes on hand, and I grab a few bites of it whenever I feel the need to eat a huge slice of cake, then I drink a glass of water, and go pop in a movie or do some hooping.
    Or both.
  • that sounds like a good idea... I may start doing that! thanks for the tip

    Agree on the fruit. I also like cherries & other berries because of the finger food angle, seems to slow me down if its a liitle nibble I can play with.
  • I stop having sweets in the house,my motto don't have none can't eat none,because I'm to busy (I like busy instead of lazy) to peel fruit I buy the fresh fruit cups.

    I keep some of the keebler or oreo 100 calorie packs around. i can eat just 1 pack and usually be satisfied but if I have a whole package of cookies I eat way too many!
