Ideas for a sweet tooth?
I have a sweet tooth but everything I like is sooo high in calories, so wondered what you guys do to curb your sugar cravings? I kinda liked someone's idea on here of a peanut butter smoothie hehe.. but I am sure there must be lots of you that have or have had the same problem and have probably got good solution
Thanks

I have a hard time with sweets too. After seeing a bunch of suggestions about this, I ended up getting some Weight Watchers Chocolate Raspberry ice cream bars. They're soooo good and only 80 calories each. They usually help with my chocolate cravings. There are tons of other flavors in that brand and also Skinny Cow and they aren't so bad calorie-wise. Good luck!0

i could eat sugar like a crack addict smokes crack ... i had to work hard at getting rid of sugar out of my system.. i do get my moments but they are really rare now thankfully. this past month i have been using raw honey on some things to sweeten up some nonfat plain greek yogurt and or in coffee . raw honey is really good for you --according to everyone i talk to and what ive read. all i know from experience is that when i eat healthy long term then i dont crave the sweets like i used to0

If I have the extra calories to spare I'll have a sweet treat, but I keep a box of werthers sugar free hard candies next to my bed just in case my late night sweet tooth kicks in. They're only 8 calories each0

3-2-1 cake. Take the dry ingredients from a box of angel food cake. Take the dry ingredients from any other cake mix you like. Mix them together and store in a ziploc-type bag. When ready for a "piece" of cake, here comes the 3-2-1 part:
Take 3 TBSP of cake mix
Take 2 TBSP of water
Mix them in a coffee cup
Put them in the microwave for 1 minute
You have a delicious piece of cake, very satisfying for my sweet tooth, and no leftover cake. You can also top as "needed."
42 calories.
Enjoy.0 -
the weight watchers frozen stuff is pretty good and normally around 60-80 calories0

I drink my "Sweet Creme" shakes twice a day.... they are known as the "shake mix that tastes like a cake mix" so I never crave sweets! There are over 300 recipes to make the shakes taste great~ but I like the plain ones~ fast easy and delicious!!! Plus, I am losing weight!!

Flavored cream cheese on a half of a whole wheat bagel. Skinney Cow ice cream sandwiches are low in calories too. I always eat yogurt when I am craving sweets. Good luck I hope these ideas help.0

I stay away from sugar free stuff. The stuff they use to replace the sugar is usually worse for you than the calories. My treat is Blue bunny Fudge sickles. I think they are 90 calories and taste great. just don't eat the whole box.
Saturday, I was feeling like I needed a break. I checked my calories for the week and decided that I wanted cookies for dinner. I had an entire box of cookies and a large glass of chocolate milk. About 1800 calories but it was worth it. No more cravings.0 -
I love all these ideas, please continue to share. TY0

Greek Yogurt or Ricotta Cheese
+ Stevia/Splenda/Truvia/etc
+ Cinnamon (feel free to add more spices, like nutmeg, clove, etc)
+ Optional - Raspberries
Murders the sweet tooth without trashing a diet.0
