I use almonds (unsalted). The fat content seems to satiate my hunger. The fat is good fat and I only need about 10 almonds.

crystal lite makes a ice cream sobet kind a thing 35 cal/container

We make the sugar-free white chocolate pudding (I don't like chocolate.) That is pretty satisfying. You can freeze it to make pudding pops (thanks Bill Cosby.) In the past, I have also limited myself to one, tiny sqaure of a dessert at night--like 1/8 or 1/4 cookie...keeping track of the calories adn fat etc...if you don't enjoy your life, an you are hungry all the time, what's the point. It's not cheating, because you are getting enjoyment and enhansing your life out of this little indulgence.

6 meals through out the day, small ones that total your daily intake.

At night with the sweet tooth, that is blood sugar issues... give in to it.

Take the time to cut up an apple and eat it!

It will aide in digestion over night, and eventually with the change in blood sugar issue, with the weight loss...will taste sweet too.

Once you have had the apple, wait 20 minutes and see how you feel...time it.

If you still think you are hungry, ( notice I said think) 2 glasses of water.

If still hungry, have another apple.

I am having problems fighting the late night sweet tooth and don't know how to control it. Any suggestions?

I brush my teeth and rinse with Listerine after my last meal of the day. EVERYTHING tastes like crap after that stuff, so that helps me curb my snacking. And my teeth are clean!

True story. Nice trick.
