No sugar fudge pops
No sugar / no fat jello pudding
protien pudding -- protein mix + just enough water to make mush + 1-2 splendas + a little no sugar / no fat jello pudding mix for flavor
- If you need the fats in that meal, you can also throw in some ANPB. Heavy cream is another good form of fat that makes the protein mush amazing. But watch if you have any issues w/ dairy.
sugar free ice pops
sugar free jello
schedule a really good & satisfying cheat & stay focused on that
sweet potato w/ 1-2 splendas -- that's so sweet by itself it's like candy
If you're really stuck, get some hard candies like Werthers that you have to eat slow anyway. Just don't get a handful when you get the sweet tooth. Just 1.
Those sugar free hard candies can help as well -but watch them if they are for diabetics or whatever - there's usually something in there that will "give you the runs" if you eat too many of them.
Basically there's nothing for free when it comes to managing your food urges.
Diet coke / diet soda
Crystal Lite
Eventually that whole sweet tooth thing goes away.

BSN lean desert protein shake seriously great and guilt free, so are Instones protein puddings as well as tri-o-plex cookies but the tri-o-plex is only very rare pretty much still see it as a cheat just not as bad as a real cookie. Most of the protein bars now are candy like enough for me so if I have real sweet craving they tend to kill it.
Oh and this is a little something I made up over my last prep. Take natty pb that has been stored in the fridge measure out teaspoon servings and roll it into balls then roll it in chocolate protein powder put it in the freezer then let chill for at least 2 hours and keep them stored in the freezer, your very own chocolate peanut butter truffle.

with the move and start of the new business with my beau things have been so hetic... I just started getting 100% back on track... was supposed to do one this year but decided that I really needed the time to organize other things and just get to prepping for next year. I was having trouble with making time for the gym, and with long hours at work, then moving and then the business...
Now, found a new gym, work is getting stable, finally kinda settled in the new home and the business plan for the new business is all coming together. Still pulling some long nights though,... but I'm pushing for next year in july to do a show. Not sure if it will be figure or BB... depends on if I can bring my upper body up some or not.
I've been a bit on the down low for a while, slacking here and there... but I'm back on the wagon and trying to hit it full force again. I know what I need to do, I just need fire under my ass to get going. LOL
If you are not prepping for a contest, a little something sweet won't break a diet. Sometimes, eating full-sugar, full-fat things are the only way to curb a craving. Nothing wrong with eating something in moderation.
