Anyone else having a hard time with sweets? I used to have something sweet to eat at least twice a day(obviously that's why I have a problem) but I've been switching it out for fruits, which helps with that sugar craving without satisfaction. Damn I just need some cake and chocolate or something. I have a hard time eating just one slice of something. I know it's mind over matter and I have been trying different things, but what have you guys been doing about the cravings. This would be a little easier if I was working through most of the day. Any suggestions or recipes that I could eat more than 3 bites that would satisfy me? I'm on blue.

I have the same problem. I cut toffee pops and Tim tams in half and put them in the freezer one of them is enough for me and that's only 40 calories! I do mini icepops too at 27cals so still getting my fix in and then if I do 7 days healthy I get a treat like a small piece of baking, it fits in with my super low calorie intake!

Toffee pops are biscuits with a caramel top covered in choc, maybe there might be a similar version in your supermarket?

I’m not sure honestly. I just wish we had the same options. It’s boggling to me that there are so many extra options for Americans than we get in Canada. I’m told it’s because it costs more to have everything labelled in both French & English

yes, I agree with this but I didn't like a lot of the flavors. The only one I actually order regularly is Peanut Butter Brownie. That's four points per bar on blue.

I thought I loved them but the texture gets to me. I now do the built bars for 4 or 5 pts depending on flavor and find them more enjoyable!

I have been using GButter. It is a “cookie butter” type product that you can use as a spread on fruit or rice cakes etc. But it also microwaves into a brownie/cake consistency. The lid is micromaveable, so you can put a serving in and zap it for 30 seconds for a warm 3 point high protein brownie. It is expensive, but I was eating a ridiculous amount of calories due to stress right now, and need that daily sugar fix. The cookie butter, oreo, brownie batter and birthday cake flavors are my faves. Cookie butter is like a warm chocolate chip cookie. They are an online company.

Russell Stover sells sugar free chocolates individually wrapped. They are the perfect size and usually just one does the job. They are usually found in the candy aisle. I’ve also started buying really high quality childcare sweetened with stevia. One or two squares does the trick. Try Lily’s.

All of the above plus I mix cool whip lite (frozen) with a tablespoon crunchy jif. When I want a good treat, I save my points. You can use the peanut butter powder for less points. Also, angel food cake baked with a can of pineapples. I think is like 3 points per piece. (Makes like 12 pieces). You can google it.

Built bars are a must! They are my favorite breakfast lunch and snack, especially with me being so stressed out. They have really saved me during quarantine. They are low carb, high protein. They keep me full longer. They are only 60-110 calories 2-4 ww points each. I eat them everyday to stay on track. They are honestly a game changer! I love them! ❤️ I haven’t had one I didn’t like. You can use my coupon for $10 off a first time order or 10% off of a sample box for $14. 95 if you want to

I eat sugar free chocolate pudding with fat free cool whip almost everyday. It helps with my sweet need. I only do the cook and serve pudding. Tastes way better and heat it up briefly in the microwave.

I make zero point cheesecake. it really helps when I want dessert. also I am able to eat it in a portion controlled way. not so much with other desserts . those fiber one brownies it's hard to eat just one so I don't buy them .

easy. I used a regular cake pan. I do believe someone posted here. you just need greek yogurt, eggs, splenda or stevia and nsa cheesecake pudding mix. recipe says you can also use vanilla . I googled the recipe. need to leave in fridge overnight. it's a great recipe.

I have a cup of tea and NIBBLE SLOWLY a caramel rice cake. Worked wonders. After a couple months I didn’t even want that.

Have you tried Built Bars? High protein, 3sp for most (nuts, 4sp). REAL CHOCOLATE coating. About the size of a regular Snickers bar, and at least 9 flavors. Chewy in the middle. I love then so much I became an ambassador. Use my code, Joyce2020 at checkout for 10% discount. www. builtbar. com

Try dates or raisins. I think you will eat 1-2 dates , your sugar craving will be satisfied.

It’s even harder when you can’t have sugar free desserts.

I’ve never been a huge sweet eater but I do love cake right now though I have fat free and sugar free Jell-O pudding with a little light Cool Whip on it.
