Does anyone have any good tips on what to do when you have a sudden urge for sweets? I ate a cookie tonight. Tried my hardest not to but my stomach wouldn't shut up until I did. I tried drinking lots of water but my old bladder is pretty water logged as it is. Don't want to drink anything now (it's almost 7:00 pnm) or I'll be peeing my brains out during the night. :help:

If you can control portions.... my advice is to allow yourself to have a bite or 2 to satisify the craving.

If I deny myself something that I really want, the craving just gets worse and I end up eating way more than I should.

I like carmel flavored life savers so bought a bag of those. By sucking on one that seems to help control that sweet craving. I am keeping portions small. That way I can eat a little bit during the afternoon. Just trying mostly to stay off the sweet stuff. Thanks for the idea.

I am on a sugar free diet. When I get a sweet tooth, my favorite thing to do is to bake a frozen biscuit, cook some red apples with cinnimon and a little Splenda Brown Sugar. I put the apples over the warm biscuit. IT is SSSSOOOO good. You will really feel like you are cheating, but your not! I also love fruit!
