I am on a diet and excercise program but get craving soemtimes for something sweet. I usually eat an apple or a couple strawberries but it doesn't hit the spot. Any other suggestions on something that might do the trick?

Try one or two small bites of chocolate, that's what I do. Or I will get one of the sweet rice cakes..also sometimes if you eat something semi-salty it will get rid of the craving.

I do too, and I am diabetic. They have sugar free candies out there now that taste like the regular candies. There are a little more expensive, but if you only eat a few at a time they last. You can also make banana cream pie that a diabetic can eat. You can buy the sugar free pudding, use graham cracker crumbs for the crust using splenda, and skim milk. You only need one large or 2 small banana's to make it. It is absolutely delicious too. They have a fat free, sugar free Cool Whip too to put on top. :D

That's normal. But I recently read an article that said that cravings only last 15 minutes. I haven't tested that yet, but you might want to try waiting 15 minutes instead of eating what you crave.

try Glutamine combine with a little heavy cream and xylitol, it'll help you control sugar craving... I read this from Jonny Bowden's book, 'Living the Low Carb Life'... Good Luck!!!

You could try making yourself some fruit juice and add some sugar replacement so that it could get sweet without that "Sugar" that your avoiding
