Hi, my name is Babs and I'm a Chocoholic! I struggle with sweet treats daily. Feel free to add me too! Just totally caved to a Three Muskateers Bar (and it didn't even taste that good). Wish I'd have seen your post BEFORE I passed the vending area, maybe I would have resisted! Networking with friends that have similar weaknesses can open up some great ideas for getting past the cravings! I've made a promise to myself, NO MORE VENDING MACHINE JUNK for a week. Baby steps.

Hey! I crave sweets 24/7.. Chocolate, licorice, sour sweets, you name it. I look forward to the only day of the week where I can eat (a very small amount of) sweets! I look forward to the day again, the minute I finish it. It takes such huge self disiplin, haha :P

I know how you feel, so feel free to add me!

I have a major sweet tooth, the kind that I actually spend $20 at 7-eleven to stop the craving. I find that not have any sweets is what I need to do. Once I have the taste of sugar, there is no stopping me.

Oh boy!!!! If there's one thing I could change. Growing up Norwegian, you're taught that sugar accompanies all the normal highs and lows of life. I wish my folks had taught me to go for a run, instead of having a cookie when I was sad. It's a CONSTANT battle and I can't wait for the day when a run is always the 1st choice.

Also grown up Norwegian, but.. I don't recognize the sugar part. I didn't get heavy on the sugar until moving out. The lows in life was handled with talking, the highs were usually celebrated with fatty foods more than sugary... (Calorie wise, I think I'd preferred the sugar ) However, I DO have a sweet tooth, and it's a weird day if I don't have a little bit of chcolate or something else sweet.

I saw a dark chocolate trifle recipe on Dr Oz the other day that is 150 calories for 1 cup. You should look it up. I haven't tried it yet, but I plan to make it very soon.

I love any kind of dessert! MFP has helped me stay in control after seeing most calories are not worth it. I've started baking my own healthy muffins which have just enough sweetness but not too much! I've also been eating more naturally sweet foods like medjool dates which are like nature's candy (they also come coated in coconut or nuts) and raisins and eating less refined sugars like turbinado.

I love sweets. Chocolates, Ice cream, and thick moist cakes and cupcakes smothered in cream cheese. I have a thing for Red Velvet anything . I have been able to stay away from the ice cream (that puts the pounds on me faster than the speed of light, and I can,or could have, eaten nearly a half gallon at a time watching TV.) and have limited severly the cakes. Chocolates I exercise for and I am saving the Red Velvet for when I reach 60 days straight of logging in and logging under my calories. Then I am going to eat an entire Pepperidge Farm Red Velvet cake and probably a couple of assorted cupcakes

The only thing saving me on this diet (lifestyle change) is sugar free sweets...feel free to add me. I can use the support too

If it's chocolate, I crave it - white, milk, dark, with nuts, without nuts....you get the idea:) With the help of MFP I now have a method. I reserve the number of caloriesI need for my day's chocolate. Or I do a few extra minutes of any cardio I'm doing that day and save those calories for my chocolate. Chocolate lovers UNITE!!

PS. My weakness is anything branded Hershey's

The sweet tooth is the bain of my existance. My arch enemy. We have been locked in a battle for years. Feel free to add me, the more the merrier in this death match.
