Plan to resist that sweet tooth

I don't know about you, but I have a MAJOR sugar spot and crave it all the time. I am trying to come up with some alternatives for when those cravings are high. I know fruit might work, or those banana, pb, chocolate smoothies. What do you plan to use when you find yourself wanting something sweet?

    I have been thinking about this too. I love things like pineapple and mango, I know they are high in natural sugars but must be better than what I usually choose (chocolate!!!!)

    For me a sugar craving often signals a need for rest as well.

    Also, chew natural gum, eat regularly and get enough fat and protein at every meal.

    Coriander, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and cardamom will naturally sweeten your foods and reduce cravings.

    Fresh fruit.
    What I have as regular snacks are red delicious apples and tangelos.
    I also recommend dried fruit such as dates and figs.
    Since increasing my fruit intake I find my sugar cravings and cravings for chocolate diminish significantly.
