Post dinner sweet tooth… help!

[Anonymous]

I have a small scoop of vanilla ice cream with cinnamon sprinkled on top. I eat it out of a teacup with a small spoon so it feels fancy.

Or sometimes I just have a spoonful of peanut butter.

Some ideas:

- strawberries with or without low-cal whipped cream
- diet pudding
- one treat - one piece of candy or cookie if you can restrict yourself
- diet gelato / sorbet
- tea

Another alternative is to brush your teeth to try to break the habit.

I have 1packet of 1/2 sugar brown sugar oatmeal

Helps with sweet tooth, hunger, cholesterol (nit that I have a problem with this) and heartburn.

I would stick with the cereal but maybe try something just a bit sweeter than cheerios.

Jello's not bad. I think a cup is 80 calories.

Cheerios is a great snack! It has 4g of fiber and is low in sugar.

An after dinner mint.

Heating milk brings out the sugar. I sometimes add honey or vanilla syrup or cinnamon or brandy.

Ricotta with berries and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Banana, maybe with some nut butter and chopped nuts or a drizzle of caramel wnd chopped nuts.

One Alter Eco Superdark chocolate truffle if I just want a sweet taste in my mouth after dinner. If I'm still a bit hungry, I'll eat one of their chocolate nut butter bombs -- one type has hazelnut butter, the other almond butter.

But I do try to eat enough protein and fat with dinner that I'm not actually hungry.

Me and I'm 5'7 and 135 lbs. at 46 years old.

OP, some options below. I do low carb and whole foods, with no fillers, gums, or artificial sweeteners.

1) apple - a sweet kind like Fuji - and string cheese
2) Keto bread with almond butter and fresh berries on top. I like Base Culture Bread (the red one) the best.
3) Simple Mills cookies, I like the chocolate ones but they have toasted pecans and cinnamon ones. 4 cookies have 16g of carbs
4) full-fat cottage cheese with hazelnuts and blueberries
5) a glass of whole milk
6) check if your local whole foods carries Nats raw cakes. They are AMAZING - I buy the tiramisu and the lime & mango. 17g cabs each and very filling.

I'm 47, 5'7", 121 lbs and don't snack after dinner. Does that mean I win?
I also bake with this sweetener from Mom's. I get terrible stomach issues from the fake ones but this is good, has no aftertaste, and acts like a prebiotic. I make an apple crisp with almond flour crust with it.

True. If this works for you, great. This would definitely not be my pick for something sweet after dinner though!
