I am not sure on the calories, but have you tried the coffee mug cake.
1 box angel food cake (the kind with one mix, some come with 2 bags you have to mix)
1 box any flavor cake mix (I used devil's food)
Mix these together and keep in an airtight container
When you want one,spray a coffee mug with Pam.
1/4 cake mix
2 tablespoons water
mix well.
microwave for 1 minute
You can top with Fat Free Cool Whip if you want.0 -

-
Fiber One 90 cal brownies0

Lots of water! It really helps.
Oh and sugarless gum. The dessert ones are great.0 -

I'll have some hot tea and a Fiber One bar.
...And save calories for the end of the night if you know you will eat again.0 -
coffee cup with cereal. every night. or half a pb and j sandwich.0

I try to make it a rule not to eat anything after dinner. If I just tell myself no, sometimes it's enough. Sometimes I just go to bed and try to sleep and pray I don't wake up in the middle of the night. lol0

at night - oh boy, am i addicted to sweets. I try super hard to clear my mind of thinking of chocolate, cookies, cake, etc but then that is all i can think about and i will not be happy until i get a piece! any advice on how to override this way of thinking?!
1. I take Herbalife snack defense
2. I Brush my teeth so I don't have the urge
3. I also try not to eat after dinner unless I have to take a medication that I have to eat with.
and both seem to help.0 -
I am a chocoholic! There is no "just one bite" for me! So I bought Fiber One brownies, they have about 90cals, 8g of sugar and I think 3 or 5g of fat. They actually taste like a brownie and the fiber content keeps me feeling full.0

Have a bowl of cereal - or even a serving of cereal without milk. Special K Red Berries or the chocolate one are sweet and not too bad for you. A serving of Cocoa Puffs has about 100 calories and almost no fat.
Gets that chocolate craving out.0 -
a good piece of dark chocolate. I love Dove promises. Serving size is 5 or 6 pieces but i can only eat 1 maybe 2 just enough sweet to satisfy. also, you could try a smoothie like a tart cherry smoothie, sweet and has sleep aid benefits. also, i really like Special K Chocolate cereal. love the little bits of dark choc!
Cherry Juice 1/4 cup
Almond milk (or reg skim milk) 1/2 cup
Vanilla extract 1 tsp
Frozen cherries (if you would like) 1/2 cup
if not frozen add ice.
I even add a little protein powder to it to satisfy hunger.0 -
I have a low cal hot chocolate with a shot of brandy in it most evenings.
The hot choc fixes and sweet craving and the brandy sends me to sleep so I can't eat any more lol
105 cals too. I like!0 -
I find that in the evening, I drink a cup of hot tea with honey or a low fat hot chocolate. If I am in need of crunch, I like the mini Luna bars. They are only 80 calories and if eaten slowly can satisfy.0

Mikado sticks... 11 calories each. I stop at 5 or 6...0
-
I love chocolate too. I actually buy chocoloate Chips and measure out a tablespoon and then I eat them one by one. They're like little Hershey kisses and are only 70 calories. You get the same flavor and impact with 1 chip vs 1 kiss and you can eat a lot more of them!0
-
Tootsie pops! They take a while to eat and they're only 60 calories.0
-
try carrots0
-
I try chewing dessert gum, unsweetened herbal teas, or I just go for a 100 cal nabisco pack.0
