What's your sweet treat?

I have the biggest sweet tooth! Before surgery I could sit down and eat an entire bag of Cookies no problem :/... after surgery I'm finding that I still crave sweets but want to make healthy choices. My go to's so far have been Greek Yogurt with slivered almonds or Strawberries and blueberries with sugar free cool whip. Wondering what everyone else eats when they crave a goodie?

Stoneyfield yogurt frozen

A Lenny & Larry cookie. Well... half of one at most.

@@MoosieGirl I love those Cookies too and like you only allow myself a portion.

@@Debbieduck4 I either enjoy a decaf cinnamon tea for a sweet treat or a 1/4cup of trail mix.

It used to be yogurt (0% Total Fage). However, my nutritionist recommended everyone give it up. It is a slider food that doesn't fill you up very well. Giving it up was hard seeing as how I haven't had sugar in 4 months and yogurt was the only thing to help curb sweet tooth cravings.

I gave in last week and bought some. However, I only allow myself some when my calorie intake is below 500 for the day. I measure out only 1/2 cup and eat it terribly slow. I still feel incredibly guilty for caving in and buying some. Almost makes me feel like I'm cheating. Incredibly, I have not cheated yet and have lost 100 pounds in 5 months. I just want to keep progressing and don't want something like yogurt to be my downfall. Maybe I will throw it out. Go all the way or go home.

Do you mean the fruit added ones?

No, the ones that taste like sour cream.

Atkins has candy. I just bought some on sale at Walmart this morning. They have a chocolate candy with caramel on the inside, chocolate covered almonds and a candy that's similar to peanut m&ms.
