    I eat Cliff Builders bars as one of my 6 meals. Takes care of my chocolate craving and at 270cal 30g carbs 8g fat and 20g protein is a great solution for me.

    I know people scoff at clean eating , but once I cut out processed food, my sugar craving went down to a completely manageable level. I could eat a sorbet instead of an ice cream and be satisfied, I could eat a small portion of chocolate without binging. Even if you cut back 50% of the fake sugar you will be in much better shape. Fake sugar creates a cycle of dependency, and you are better off without it..

    sugar free jelly - the orange one is REALLY sweet. i actually find it too sweet for me and ive a sweet tooth so it'll definitely satisfy a craving.

    i take the non-sugar free one and for only about 80cals per serving it satisfies my need for something sweet

    When I need something sweet and craving a smooth, chocolatey dessert I have a 60 calorie (sugar free) Jello pudding with a dollop of Free Cool Whip. It really satisfying and delicious...

    I went "cold turkey" on carbs for a couple of weeks, and although it was really hard, it curbed my sugar cravings / habits. I have since reintroduced my body to "good" carbs including fruits and whole grains.

    I still get a sweet tooth once in a while, and I have found that Vitatops chocolate muffins are good. I also do the peanut butter and cool whip thing, but add in a melted fudgesicle or cocoa, if I want something chocolatey!

    Fat Free pudding. No sugar added fudge pop. Low fat graham cracker with a little peanut butter. Frozen grapes and blueberries are good too.
