I have had the same issue... I have done everthing from lemon water to gum... I have noticed that special K came out with Moments... They are only like 70 cals and are awesome!!! They have a cocnut one and a caramel one... I havent tried the coconut but the caramel is awesome!!! You can find that sucking on a low calorie hard candy helps too...

I also like making some tea and even stirring in some real sugar.  Sugar is only about 15 calories per teaspoon so as long as I track it and don't go crazy with it I find that hits the sweet spot sometimes.  Other days I just have to have something sweet, but I budget for it or go to the gym and exercise so I can "afford" it and I watch my portion size.

Hi, I would recommend you eat something that is high in protein as well as sweet.

I also suffer from this sometimes, after I've been eating sweet snacks over a period of time (Christmas Break).

So when I have an urge, I eat Total flavoured, Danio, or Chobani yoghurt - approx. 150 cals a pot.
I prefer Danio as it is the sweetest, and afterwards I no longer have any craving.
