Can't stop eating the puddings!!!

Have you tried switching to a yoghurt with the fruit (so you get that bit of sweetness and smooth texture) or even those diet chocolate mousse tubs they have in the yoghurt section instead of pudding? Might help you feel like you're getting your dessert but having something that's lower calorie and less sugar. If it allows you the chance to wean yourself off the 'bad stuff' every day, it's worth a try. I know how hard it can be, I went through a very long stage where I felt I had to have chocolate every day! It was bad, chocolate at breakfast and in the afternoon; if I didn't have it I'd crave it something fierce. I don't eat it much at all anymore, and don't miss it, which feels liberating You can get past it if you make a conscious effort to moderate how often you have it, and replace it with something healthier you enjoy instead.

I have the same issue, I figured I have been conditioned by my mum, as we always used to have dessert after dinner in my family. I am now trying to just have a square of dark chocolate instead of a full blown pud to still get the sweet end of the meal without all the cals. Working ok so far! :-)

Try a chromium supplement kill your sugar cravings.

If you're still within your macronutrient target I really don't see a problem with eating a pudding everynight.

Why worry about stopping?
Are you over your calorie goal?
Does it throw your macros completely out of whack?

Unless for some reason you find it imperative to eat completely clean, I don't see a problem with having a small treat every night after dinner. As long as you keep a calorie deficit, you aren't going to stop losing weight and as long as you're eating at least fairly healthy the rest of the day, you won't be cheating yourself out of needed nutrients either.

FYI for the North Americans...I have a feeling the OP is from the UK where "puddings" is synonymous with "dessert".

I eat a Jello Sugar Free pudding every day for lunch. Nothing wrong with that as far as I am concerned. May not be the same but the point is that its ok to have a small portion controlled dessert.

one word for you - JELLY!!

It takes about 2 weeks for your taste pallet to change. Try stopping for these 2 weeks and your cravings should be gone.

find a delicious protein bar that can be like a dessert! I like square bars, because I love chocolate and they have nice flavors like almond, peanut butter, and coconut. I was having ONE, in replacement, but the mental richness quickly brought me down to just half and now I just have a quarter of one when I'm feeling the need to satiate my sweet soul.

I also have a protein shake that is sweet, that replaces my treats now, it has stevia instead of added sugars and 16 grams of protein, which I've been focusing on maintaining a high level of protein for this next couple of weeks to try something different out.

I was obsessed with brownies, mmuffins, scones, and cookies and just slowly weaned myself off. Allowing myself to have a BITE or the best one.... as in the vegan or gluten free one, or vegan gluten free one if it was an option. Try slowly replacing those options (if its at home) with healthier ones, slowly the craving will change a little bit and then you can literally have control over it. Now when I'm craving a sweetness, instead of eating something full of butter, flour and mostly bad fats, I'm drinking a healthy raw protein shake (sunwarrior) or having a nibble of an organic, vegan, gluten free all natural protein chocolate bar. Your body will love you for it and give back!

I love this advice!

I really like eating Arctic Zero frozen dessert when I have a sweet craving. It is only 150 calories for the whole pint and all natural. It also has whey protein in it.
