Hello all I’m about half a month in on converting over to Keto. I must admit I’m still having a hard time with craving for sweets especially late into the night. I’ve tried watermelon to fill my void and it’s definitely not the same as a thick piece of chocolate cake. I don’t know if I’m the only one struggling with this but omg I just don’t trust myself to eat sweets period and limiting myself so I completely avoid them any one have any tips on how to control this urge?

    I had researched keto when I started here and realized it wouldn't be sustainable for me due to the restrictions.

    I know you need to be wary of carbs. I was going to suggest swapping fruit for your cake.

    That’s what I been doing is eating watermelon when I’m having my cravings omg lol it’s definitely not cake, or a simple 365 ginger ale even though there’s like 35g of carbs in it.

    Have you looked up recipes for fat bombs? I haven’t tried any yet (been lucky not to have sweets cravings yet) but I have several recipes saved in case (cheesecake bombs, chocolate bombs, cookie dough bombs, etc.). Most have 2-4 net carbs per bomb.
