    I get an Angel Food cake from the grocery store deli and have a small slice as a snack at night. That takes care of my sweet craving.
  • Oddly enough, what satisfies me is a small bowl of cereal with a little milk, not sure why it works, but it does for me. If I cave and have something like candy, I totally binge

    A bit of dark chocolate, a tablespoon of peanut butter or a prptein shake.

    OR I make Aztec hot chocolate: 1 T cocoa powder, 2 pkgs stevia, a few dashes of cayene pepper and boiling water to fill the mug. 5 calories. It's my survival food when I feel the urge to illegally snack.

    "Oh Yea!" protein bar, the Chocolate and Caramel one tastes exactly like a Baby Ruth! There is another one that is similar to a payday. The best part, is it doesn't taste like a protein bar...it actually tastes like a candy bar! sweet cravings fulfilled!

    Omg, I know! Cereal is like ambrosia lately - when I have it for breakfast its just kinda Meh but when I have the exact same cereal for dessert its like the most amazing thing ever! (I'm eating a bowl right now lol)

    Frozen fruit. I am often sated by a smoothie made with a banana, 1 cup unsweetened soy milk, and some cinnamon.

    Also, I need to avoid artificial sweeteners because they made me crave more sweets. This is true of some of us but not others. I'm much more in control of my sweets cravings since I quit all artificial or calorie-free natural sweeteners.
