Tips for sweets

Anything you’d like, just make it fit in your calorie goal. I save 300ish calories for dessert every night because I freak out and none C of I try to cut chocolate and ice cream completely out of my daily diet.

Unreal dark chocolate minis. One to satisfy a sweet craving. Protein bars can be like a desert while at the same time giving you protein. But always stay within your calories

Diet Coke and sugar free gum help me. I’ll admit though I’m more tempted by a bag of chips and salsa! But a Diet Coke and chewing gum helps if I just feel snacky but not really hungry.

I agree with all of the above. If you are choosing to not eat sugar then I have these other alternatives:

Water with fruit or vegetables added, such as: cucumber, lemon or strawberries.

Rooibos tea has a sweetness without calories.

Tea with cinnamon or clove or allspice. Also give a sweetness with no calories.

Patience is a virtue. The longer you go without sugary sweats, the less the cravings will be. You will get to a point when a sugary sweat will be too sweat for you.

I LOVE rice cakes with peanut butter, butter, and honey or peanut butter, cheese, and apple, but because I am trying to limit calories and fat (the latter due to a medical condition) my sweet rice cake treat is with low fat cream cheese and whatever my favorite jam happens to be.

My savory rice cake snack is low fat cream cheese, capers, and smoked salmon.
