    Chew gum, have other healthy snacks on the side that you can pick up instead or bake something he enjoys, but you don't (that way there is no temptation)

    Hey, starrt making sugar free goods that taste just as good so it won't be as bad. I personally enjoy walmart's sugar free macadameia cookies, mmm, so chewy and good. Also, if i need a chocolate fix, I'll buy a publix chocolate sugar free cake from the bakery. Oh soooo good, this cake taste better than the cake with sugar. No joke, my fam was so surprised when they had it, that it was sugar free, and top this, I lept the sugar free part a secret & sprung it on them after they were nose deep in it. They were so shocked; it was the rave of the family picnic.
  • Make him bake his own fattening treats. If he is supportive of you, he wouldn't be expecting you to bake for him if you are working towards a healthy lifestyle. Otherwise, try blindfolding yourself so you don't have to see all the "yummy-goodness". I bet he'd volunteer to bake for himself after that...

    Or, only cook healthy treats. If you haven't tried baking the Devil's Food Cake/Pumplin Mix brownies... you should try it. I make the mini-muffins so I can eat three of them, instead of one big one.

    Devil's Food Cake/Pumplin Mix Brownies
    1 box devil’s food cake mix
    1 (15 oz) can solid pack pumpkin

    Directions:
    Mix the two ingredients together. Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be very thick and you will be tempted to add in other things to make the batter smoother. DO NOT DO THIS AS IT WILL RUIN EVERYTHING! Place batter into muffin tins (or mini muffin tins) lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins.

    (1 Muffin, or 3 minis - 180 calories, 2.5g fat, 37 carbs, 2.5g, fiber, 2.5g protein - 3 WW points)

    Cheers!
