Sweet Treats

That fat free frozen yogurt, i think breyers, is really good. i recently bought cherry suagr free jello and eat it with a serving of fat free ready whip... it's 15 calories and really sweet better with real berries for some vitamins.

I am a big fan of the skinny cow ice cream and also the 100 calorie ice cream bars.

I like to take grapes and put them in the freezer. Tastes like a popsicle but it is healthy.

Otter Pops! 15 Calories of cold summertime deliciousness.

I am a HUGE SWEET eater!! I found Artic Zero Ice cream....it is 150 cal for a whole pint!! I also have found Walden Farms 0 calorie Carmel and chocolate syrup....so I put it on the 150 cal icecream with a banana......a 250 calorie banana split!! YUMMMMM!!!

I also will add sugar free jello with yogurt and free cool whip...that is a nice sweet treat. Skinny cow ice cream is also good.....Go to the grocery store and just scan through all of the ice cream. It might take time at first, but will be worth it if you can find something that is tasty and low cal.

Good luck!! GIrl, I have lost 100 lbs and have kept it off for 3 yrs. It isn't always easy, but I am a big fan of sugar free syrup, sugar free ice cream, splenda....anything that can help my sweet tooth helps me stay on track!

I personally have not had this problem.....I have eaten artifical sweeteners for years now and I have kept off 100 lbs for 3 yrs.....do what you think is best for your body.

Be careful with all the fat free, low fat, sugar free etc...They still replace the fat and sugar with chemicals, and the aspartame or other fake sugars can often make you eat MORE......sometimes it may be better to eat in moderation and eat natural. Also, sometimes it's good for your body to overeat your calories to keep your body guessing....

I am in love with Jello Dark Chocolate Mousse, 60 calories a cup. I also make Sprite Cupcakes and top them with fresh berries for a 200 calorie dessert.

Skinny cow ice cream treats are delicious and fairly low calorie. I do get frozen yogurt from TCBY sometimes. Or from the grocery. VITATOP CHOCOLATE MUFFINS with a scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt. Oh my god. I have a secret brownie sundae monster living inside me who is totally tricked by that combo.

Love the vitatop with frozen yogurt idea. I will have to try that!

If I want ice cream, and I have the calories I have it. If I don't have the calories, I try to manage my calories the next day so that I'll have the calories. I only have a half cup - which is generally one serving. I put it in a small bowl, so it feels like more. But, I don't deprive myself - I'm in this for the long haul and, personally, I'm not going to make it if I always say "no". If I had that kind of self control, I wouldn't be needing to lose weight in the first place!

No sugar added reduced fat butter pecan ice cream. Edy's makes it for I think 120 calories. I love it I put it on an ice cream cone (20) and feel totally satisfied when I'm done

Other sweet tooth things: dark chocolate is definitely okay! & I love fiber plus eggos. Polander also makes a sugar free +fiber jelly which can be good too.

I like to indulge on mostly fresh fruits now. I can eat about two pounds of strawberries for the same calories as a handful of chocolate covered almonds. How fair is that right.

But I also found usually if I do get a crazy craving for what ever bad for you thing, I end up having it eventually. And the trying to eat something else instead only makes me also eat those things before I cave into the craving thing I wanted.

So what I do now is.. just eat it. But on one condition. I have to put in enough exercise upfront to burn the same or more calories of the thing I want to eat. That does two fold. One, I never seem to over run my calories from the indulgence, I weigh out the portion of peanuts, chocolates, or the thing I am craving to be a measured baggie of the known calories. put it on a pedestal or what ever.

Then, I go do some biking, walking, jogging, yard work. and so on. And burn up some calories. All the while I am reminding myself "do it for that sweet treat after".. In this way the knowing I have this sweet reward after my workout waiting for me, it really helps keep me motivated, or to push thru that "just one more minute". or "just one more mile" . when I know before I would have folded it in and stopped at that point.

So. I get motivation as I work out, and calorie balanced indulgence. in the worst case I break even. But I think there is some long term benefit to having that extra activity, as it works to condition and train the rest of your body to improve cardiovascular fitness and increase your base metabolic rate over time right.

My only gotcha with this is sometimes I would want say chocolate covered almonds, set out to work off 700 calories to eat them. do the workout. and then after the work out, no longer crave sugary goodness and for what ever reason I am craving fresh strawberries and I eat those too. So I kind of am breaking myself of the desire for chocolates. Which I guess is also good. Its just inconvenient at times when I don't have the fresh strawberries in stock and then have to run out to get them. Hint: always keep fresh fruits you like to eat in case you later also lose your apetite for the chocolates

Ciao Bella Sorbet - Blood Orange. Fabulous!

If you want some, have some. If you don't it's going to continue to eat at you and you may eat a whole container. If you have the calories, have one serving. It seems like its not much, but it will satisfy you and then it will be off your mind. I am a firm believer that if you want something, eat it - just don't eat an excess amount. It's all about portion control. It's unreasonable to think that you can live the rest of your life not having the things you like to eat.

Absolutely! Everyone else seems to have good advice about what to get some other time but I saw you're talking about ice cream hubby brought home tonight. Unless he got some of those low calorie, etc. treats the other advice won't help you. I say in moderation and roughly within your calories for the day. Like if you'll go over by 100 if you do have it, then I would anyway but that's me.

Sherbert isn't too bad when compared to ice cream. We also have 100 calorie packs running around of our favorites when nothing else will do.
