I crave for something spicy and sugary. I try to follow a no sugar or very less sugar diet during the day, but by the end of the day I have this craving for some fried stuff or sugary treats. Could anyone help me by suggesting some corrective measures.

    Maybe try a protein bar in a yummy flavor? I like the Quest ones and they have flavors like mint chocolate chunk and double fudge brownie. They help curb a sweet tooth, but have good stuff in them, plus it gives a nice boost to my protein intake.

    I save enough calories at night for a couple squares of 85% dark chocolate. I look forward to it every day. It helps keep the cravings at bay & I love love love it.

    I've been doing a little packet of cream cheese with Splenda and cinnamon. Or a little peanut butter and cream cheese. Maybe that's weird, but it works for me.

    I like to finish off the day with a glass of red wine and a handful of sweetened nuts.

    I like flavoured rice cakes. The Quaker brand has multiples choices from caramel chocolate chips to white cheddar

    Usually I'll brush my teeth about an hour after dinner to curb snacking (nothing tastes good after toothpaste), but if I want something sweet after dinner I go for a 0-calorie fizzy drink. Right now I really like the diet Cape Cod dry cranberry soda. It's just what I need to take the edge off.
