I go nuts especially at night for sweet snacks. Ice cream especially, but there are tons of calories. I recently found that hannaford have their own ice cream sandwich brand. 140 calories for a standard size ice cream sandwich! The “light” variety. It’s rare to find a light version of ice cream that doesn’t taste like artificial sweeteners—they really are super tasty and at cheap calorie cost.

These puppies helped me down 25 lbs so far and I’m hoping this shout out will help others!

    Ugh the struggle is real! Rice Krispy Treats are like 90 cal & they have a bunch of chocolate flavors now!

    Yasso frozen greek yogurt bars are delish! They are 100 calories for a lot of food. My favs are Cookie dough, Coffee chip and Sea Salt Caramel.

    I love Blue Bunny mini swirls ice cream cones. The caramel flavor is 140 calories for a chocolate-dipped ice cream cone with caramel in the middle. They're big enough to be satisfying, they taste extremely indulgent, but they don't break the calorie bank!

    Yes, I have a sweet tooth and will always crave something sweet after a full meal.

    I had to learn to incorporate it in my daily calories - so about 300-350 out of my 1900-2000 daily calories come from chocolate or other sweet treats. I’m now maintaining at 136-138 lbs.

    When I get an insane sweet tooth I usually get icecream from the brand halo top. You have to let it sit out a bit because it's pretty solid lol. But its usually under 400 cals for a whole pint. The one in my freezer is 280 for the whole pint. It's not the best icecream ever, but it's decent and does the job.

    So why do you snack at night? Why not at day time? Are you bored, do you need to find something that keeps you occupied? Quite often, a 'sweet tooth' is just boredom.
