Question

Hey fellow WW Wariors!  Question for you all.Hey fellow WW Wariors! Question for you all. Before I started WW, my go to sweet was jelly belly's or gummy bears (especially Albanese ). Anyways, they are a no-go for me right now because I cant have just a few. its all or nothing for me at this point with them lol. What is a WW friendly alternative? I have heard about dehydrated strawberries in the oven (I've just got to search out instructions). Any other suggestions or tips you have come across. Your girl over here is having some withdrawals  

Answer 1

If you go to GNC, they have this brand. smart sweets. 3 pts for the bag. They also have swedish fish, and another type of gummy bear - sour. They're actually really good.  

Answer 2

Smart Sweets. They have swedish fish, gummy bears peach rings, sour gummy bears. I know thewy have been at Target and Amazon.  

Answer 3

35 sugar free jelly beans are 2 or 3 points based on brand. That’s a reasonable snack alternative

Answer 4

I was just going to post same as above. A lot of people on WW find success with smart sweets. I personally have never tried them. .

Answer 5

You can make gummies with sugar free jello, pkg of gelatine and 1/3 c water. Mix and then bring it to a boil. Then put the mixture into gummy bear moulds (find at Amazon). Refrigerate for half hour and voila, gummies.  

Answer 6

Also dehydrated fruits are high in points though strawberries may be healthier they just may have as many points as your gummies

Answer 7

I saw a recipe on the Hungry Girl website for home made gummy bears

Answer 8

Be advised that dried strawberries have 2 points per tablespoon because of increased sugar content.  

Answer 9

Smart sweets are the bomb! Target usually has the best price.  

Answer 10

I’ve tried to replace candy with berries. I do like the smart sweets as well. I try to portion them out into 2 servings. If you eat the whole bag at once it’s 3 points and if you eat half the bag it’s 1.  

Answer 11

I’ve just rediscovered frozen grapes - delicious and seem so much sweeter when frozen. They definitely help the sugar cravings for me

Answer 12

If you roll your grapes in sugar-free jello mix before you freeze, they taste like Sweet-Tarts when you eat them! Can do this with strawberries and raspberries as well, however grapes are my favorites.  

Answer 13

You can make homemade gummy bears, checkout Pinterest.

Answer 25

Sugar free werther's or life savers

Answer 26

I absolutely LOVE frozen green seedless grapes! I'm not much of a snacker/sweets type but when I got cravings, this is what I went to. I gave me the crunch of chips, sweetness of junk and fulfilled my snack attack! Piece of advice. Don't let them thaw. soggy grapes are NASTY lol

Answer 27

Smart sweets! 3 point treats like Swedish fish.  

Answer 28

Sugar free jello and grapes

Answer 29

Watermelon is my go to and grapes

Answer 30

I was all about the chewy candy. Like you, it’s my crack. I found that since starting WW, I stopped eating candy, as well as most sugar, completely. It was so hard at first, but 6 months later, I don’t miss it at all. I don’t even do sugar-free snacks (except for Diet Coke sometimes). Fruit is my go-to now.  

Answer 31

Fresh fruit - clementines are still in season right now. Blueberries, strawberries, anything seasonal. Also, the WW chocolate treats are good too but it can be easy to binge on them.  

Answer 32

Frozen mangos (in the freezer section). I have a serving almost every night. I too use to love my jelly bellies and it was an all or nothing treat.  

Answer 33

Peel bananas and freeze. Eat frozen by itself or drizzle w choc syrup or watered down peanut butter

Answer 34

You all are awesome! Thank you for all of the ideas!  

Answer 35

Eat blueberries or grapes

Answer 36

Jelly belly was mad my weakness too. A Fiber one brownie heated up with a little whip cream is low in points and delicious

Answer 37

Smart Sweets are awesome. I even prefer them over the original Swedish fish and peach rings.  

Answer 38

I sympathize with you. I am also an "all or nothing" personality.  

Answer 39

Sugar free Werthers soft caramels.  

Answer 40

CHICKPEAS I air fry them for about 25 minutes until they are crispy. They are zero points, but I eat the whole can in one day and that is over 200 calories.  

Comments

@grandaunt332 Leppek Dunn I have read that they get soggy quick. Have you had that experience? I have been excited to try this.  

---

@dann what happens is that they don’t crisp up evenly. So some are soft, not soggy.  

---

@grandaunt332 Leppek Dunn good deal. I can deal with soft. Kinda like the soft french fries you get sometimes lol

---

@dann I put them in the air fryer at 400 for 20-25 minutes. Also about half way through I take a spatula to move them around a bit
