Hi

As above really :smile:

I'm bored of Polo mints / Polo fruits, and lower cal / fat Werthers Original sweets.


Any recommendations please folks?
Thanks!

    Make quitting sugar your new year's resolution? There is nothing positive to be said nutritionally about sugar, it's all but a poison and hugely damaging to the body.

    Yes, I understand that, and eat unrefined when possible.

    Yikes, I can't eat just one or two jaffa cakes - they are like Pringles to me :laugh:

    I was thinking more of sweets; the type that are suckable and last a while rather than something you just chomp on quickly (I'm laughing here; I know what I mean!)

    Sherbet fountain. It has 90 calories but you can make it last for hours.

    I used to eat those when I dieted some years ago. Did they change the fizzy stuff? It didn't seem as eyewatering as it used to be...

    I sometimes allow myself half a large roll of Love Hearts too, and can make those last if I suck em (sad or what!)

    Aldi sell some sugar free boiled fruit or mint sweets in twin pack cartons. Small packs at a reasonable price.
    They are a bit like like those sugar free sweets you can get from some chemists and holland and barrett, I think they are called sula

    I think one boiled sweet can satisfy you and stop you overdoing it.

    I tried tictacs but can't help scoffing the lot. Especially the fruit flavours lol.

    :tongue:

    Oh my...The new tic tacs are amazing aren't they?

    Only 2 cals each, but like you, I can quickly demolish the whole little pot :tongue:
