in Health and Weight Loss
Hi there.. I've been on my fitness journey for about 10 months now. I've lost 56.6 pounds and I still want to lose 15-20 more pounds. I've changed my eating habits, but I can't shake off my sweet tooth. I recently discovered halo top ice cream which helped. But I really need tips on how to control this sweet tooth.. Or things to eat to take it down a notch.. Please help

    I've got one and I had a Milky Way tonight.

    I feel that you should do your plan so it is livable. Forever. :) You are losing weight and feeling fine? Then I think it is fine to work a sweet into your day. :)

    I have a massive sweet tooth as well and have to include a small amount of skinny cow ice cream (In a cup) at the end of my day after dinner. I usually plan out my meals that morning or the night before and enter everything in I plan on having. That way even if I want more I have a visual on how many calories I've used up for the day. If I can fit it in I'll have it! If not too bad.

    You can make things more difficult for yourself. Separate chocolates or whatever you like into individual servings, maybe stick them in a ziploc to make yourself unwrap each individual, and keep things you have difficulty controlling yourself over in a cabinet that's harder to get to.

    Personally, I had some candy corn and finished off some cookies tonight. Friday, I'll break into some Talenti I bought yesterday.

    Thanks ladies.. I need to try that mint chocolate chip cherry, sound delish

    And that's why I signed up on this app, I agree with you I see that counting calories is important so I can see what wiggle room I have for the desserts
