Are you on regular food? I can’t remember if I was at one month but if so Hershey’s makes zero sugar candy bars that taste exactly the same to me. And one serving is FOUR little bars so if you eat just one it’s not bad calorie wise. It’s of course not on plan because it’s empty calories so I shouldn’t recommend it but i had them. I figured if it’s this or the real thing this is a better option. Just make sure the first time you have it at home cause the artificial Sweetener (I think it’s called malitol) acts like a laxative for some people. Another option would be Quest candy bites. They caramel one is really good and at least that has some Protein in it so it’s more on plan. The only problem Is they don’t seem to carry them in stores (at least not near me) but they sell them on Amazon and they are very tasty little treats. The Hershey’s brand candy bars they sell at Walmart.

sugar free pudding and Jello are good early on. The Jello pistachio is probably the best flavor. I don't like sweets but my husband loves them so after that phase, I gave them to him and he said it tasted great. No after taste.
