    None I can think of until sweets and carbs get a divorce. :)

    Not very healthy, but if you need a "candy" sort of fix.... Sugar free jello + grapes. Rinse grapes to get wet, dip/swirl in the sugar free jello (the powder) of your choice. Tastes like sour patch kids. YUM.

    Publix sells them for sure and just ask your local grocery stores. I heard they really taste like cotton candy. Im going to be getting some tomorrow to try. :) because I love cotton candy!

    For a sweet fix: Quest bars, Think Thin bars, flavored greek yogurt (or try plain with fruit, maybe), even oatmeal with protein powder in a flavor you enjoy.

    For less sweet snacks that might cut the desire for sweet -- pickle, cheese, nuts (ideally a little salty), popcorn.
    Oatmeal with protein powder is an excellent idea.Wow!! Thank you so much.I have some vanilla flavoured protein powder.That should be yummy. *_*

    SF jello. SF ice cream. Crystal light. I myself eat dark chocolate nearly every day and that often helps with cravings during the day -- knowing that at the end of the day I get chocolate. Greek yogurt. Oatmeal with cocoa and a little sweetener of choice. Lately, SF Popsicles.

    I feel your pain. Allow yourself treats, just watch portions. I've frozen containers of 100 calorie yogurt and eat it like ice cream.

    Aaaahhh...I dont know why my full replies aren't showing up...
    Where do I find cotton candy flavoured grapes.

    They've just started selling them at our grocery stores ... but they may not be available every where. They are LOADED with sugar though.......................a serving is half a cup (not many) and 14 grams of sugar... plugging in 2 servings of those (I was having a rough day) caused my MFP app to crash on my phone with sugar gram warning. - grin

    How about a home-made fruit smoothie? It can be very filling too.
    I have also heard that if you are craving something sweet, you should eat something sour like a dill pickle or something with vinegar and it will kill the sweet craving. I have to try that myself sometime....

    Why no fruit? I'm eating much less baked goods and added sugar but not craving sugar as I am getting some sugar (but much less calories) from fruit.

    Also, I know a Bhavani and keep seeing your name Bhanvi as Bhavani, lol.
