The best thing to do when you are craving a sweet is have a protein instead. This really does get you through it most of the time. Oh and another glass of water.

The issue is that until you are really in ketosis you will have these cravings but you will be in control soon.

There are things you can have if you must like sf jello and some heavy whipping cream w/ some splenda or 1 oz of melted cream cheese w/ 1 oz heavy whipping cream and packet of splenda for a couple of spoonfuls of something sweet BUT my recommendation is to try to get through this with good protein and you will be setting a good pattern for yourself here.

FYI - I am like a heroin addict myself so I swear to you that i'm not telling you something that I haven't gone through myself.
