    After the holidays my husband and I just stopped eating any sort of sweets and no alcohol or sugary drinks. It sucked really bad for the first week but after that it was ok. Also .. I really amped up my water I take. And started drinking herbal tea.

    Have small portions of what you really like and make it fit in your calorie budget.

    When I get the urge to overindulge I watch the documentary Fed Up (its on Netflix...I encourage all to watch it if you haven't already) or even That Sugar Movie (on Amazon Prime). It puts things into perspective about how damaging to the body sugar really is. Works for me every time!

    Sugar free jello. I found a kind that only has 14 calories for the full 4 serving package.

    My sugar tooth craves sour candy, which you cannot eat a lot at a time or your mouth will become raw :open_mouth: so on that note I am lucky! I would say try sour candy, as some one mentioned gum, I like low sodium sunflower seeds because i can eat them for hours straight and consume like 100-150 calories and 400 sodium.

    I drink a french Vanilla Atkins meal replacement shake. I have them for a snack. Drink it when it is super cold. Tastes like a milk shake. My husband prefers the strawberry flavor. But it's only 160 calories and lots of protein.
