HEAD HUNGER
I too feen for something sweet at night after I finally sit down and relax.
I always have something ready that will soothe the inner beast: My favorite treat is a cup plain greek yogurt with a T of SF orange marmalade and a dash of SF whipped cream or a cup of SF hot chocolate with a dollop of SF whipped cream. The only place I can find SF whipped cream is Whole Foods.
The 2 trick which are full-proof is to have what you know will satisfy you and keep you on program and not to bring any bad stuff into the house. I am an addict, but I will not get in my car and drive for something if I am prepared.
I also find if i pop a piece of SF gum into my mouth right after a meal it calms the carb addict monster inside of me. I always keep tons of gum everywhere. Even my night-stand.

Or some nuts, such as almonds, because I can play with them(they're big enough to est the skin around, then separate them in half, and they are longer to chew) so my "treat" last longer.
I also make some jell-o but instead of using the cold cup of water, I use a cold cup of greek yogourt. Delicious!!!!!
I also have 90 or 95% chocolate bar at all times for the ry bad chocolate cravings. I also have chocolate mint from weigh****chers but if I have a craving, I try to talk to myself, snack, drink, etc.... But if the craving is too much to hane, I take a 90% cocoa chocolate piece and usually it does the trick and I am good to go again for month because all I can remember is the bitter taste instead of the sugary one.
If I crave carbs, I have crackers that have so little car s that I will eat a few, and be satisfied for months again!
