Sweet Tooth Sally

If you are like me, you have a sweet tooth.  Sometimes I just can't help myself.  Unfortunately, that does not lend itself to helping me on my fitness journey.  After LOTS of searching and experimenting, I have come up with a list of 5 snacks to curb that sweet tooth without blowing all of my hard work. 

1. Chocolate Dipped Strawberries





These are easy and quick and you can make just enough to enjoy without going overboard.

2. Frozen Chocolate Banana Bites








 Just slice up a banana, dunk in dark chocolate and place on wax paper in the freezer....yummy!

3. Fresh Fruit






 Sometimes a sweet piece of juicy fruit is all it takes...you can also try freezing your grapes!  They make a great and refreshing snack.


4. Dark Chocolate - more that 70% cacao









The great thing about this is that you only need a tiny amount to really feel fulfilled when a craving hits.

5. Chocolate Milk









This is also a great post workout drink.


These are just some of my favorites that I indulge myself with occasionally.  It is next to impossible to stay on track with a "diet" that doesn't allow for some treats now and then.  These are not a regular part of my meal plan, but it is nice to know that I can have something sweet without derailing my progress entirely.  (Funny how all but one are involving chocolate!)  Happy sweet tooth snacking!
