Sweet Cravings?

vanilla or starwberry healthy choice frozen yogurt BEST THING EVER!!!!! 100 cal0

I do the sugar free jello and add some fruit to it.0
-
Whatever I'm craving in a moderate amount. I almost always have dark chocolate in the house, though.
This. This every day.0 -
The only sweet thing I crave is revenge. And I always satisfy my cravings.0

Eat a Quest bar or whip up some lemon "pudding" using my favorite Casein protein flavor and egg whites (or almond milk or water).0
-
Fruit, low fat chocolate milk, or 100 cal mini ice cream sandwich0

Try the infused raisins from Nakd. They are relatively cheap and you can get all sorts of flavours!0

I have apples....2 of them a day. I love the Pink lady the best!!
Good luck...I have a sweet tooth also, It's very easy to get out of control with it.0 -
I eat a Larabar or a single serve pack of Justin's Chocolate Hazelnut Butter. mmmm. Both are all-natural and, for me, don't lead to more sugar cravings like a million other foods do.0

I throw a fat free greek yogurt in the freezer for 45 minutes. Tasty and full of protein.0

I like to blend up little concoctions and keep them in little 2oz cups in the freezer for cravings such as this. (you know, those old jello shot cups you have lying around) Some of my favorite varieties are:
Coconut milk, pb, and chocolate protein powder or mashed bananas and raspberries
Another REALLY yummy idea is something a dear buddy of mine makes. 1 scoop of protein powder ( I prefer vanilla), 1 scoop of pb, and a splash or two of milk. Mix well and stick in the freezer for 15 mins or so. That is really good.0 -
The only thing I can do (sugar is my ultimate weakness and downfall) is ignore my cravings and pray they go away! I know that me personally, 1 bite leads to binge eating sweets :blushing:
That is how I am. I can't have any sweets in the house or I will eat them all. Sad to say but true.
OP- Dark chocolate is good for you. Maybe get a couple Hershey kisses dark chocolate? I like Nutella. It's tasty on toast.0 -
Grapes
100 calorie skinny cow chocolate truffle bar
Fiber one brownie
This ... or there is a carmel chocolate divine skinny cow (three pieces in a pack) for 130 cals - and I can savor each piece0 -
I have (depending on what's available in the house, how much I'm craving sweet stuff, calorie availability for the day, exercise done etc etc)
Fresh fruit
Fruit juice
Fruit yoghurt
Raisins
Square(s) of dark chocolate
Nature valley granola bar
Nakd raw fruit bar
I try not to have lots of processed, very-high-sugar foods around the house as I'll eat them too readily (e.g. milk chocolate, ice-cream)0 -
About 100 grms of strawberries chopped into natural yoghurt with stevia to sweeten it.0
-
it all depends on what the craving is for... if I just need a little chocolate, then I will do the Special K Pastry Crisps (the chocolatey one is amazing)... if it is ice cream (like last night) I will either get a weight watchers ice cream snack or make sure that I have breyers vanilla bean and throw some berries on it, or make a milkshake with unsweetened almond milk and berries (totally delish).
If I'm just not able to satisfy it with a low cal, slightly more healthy alternative, then I plan to blow it and will just have a big piece of cake... but make sure that the rest of my day is super healthy and I will do extra cardio. It doesn't always work, but it makes me feel better for having "binged".
The most important thing to remember, you CAN indulge occassionally... just make it the exception and not the rule! And DO NOT feel guilty and say that you have fallen off the wagon, understand that it's ok to do and move forward0 -
I eat fresh fruit, kills the cravings every time. Apples, satsumas, grapes.0
-
Love a frozen banana and almond butter in the blender, makes a great sweet ice cream!0
-
I find Vanilla Greek Yogurt very satisfying for my sweet craving or when I crave chocolate, Jello Pudding Oreo flavor only 120 calories.0
