Looking for good options to satisfy that sweet tooth.  I've been using SB Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bars.

I like to use the Ka****LC bars (Trail Mix or chewy Honey Almond Flax)

Also a nice dish of Oikos Greek Yoghurt with mandarin oranges and a little sf vanilla syrup.  Yum!

I found a good source at World Market;  I don't know if you have one near you, but they had a great assortment at the store I frequented in Santa Cruz, CA

Once a month I make a special trip to Whole Foods and get a Kids Gelato (2oz)

I know, probably not what you wanted to hear.  For me, I try and eat sensible amounts of real sugar foods.  This has worked OK for about a year and a half.

Oh my goodness a Gelati would send me right over the edge...during the summer I wouldn't even go near Rits's Italian Water Ice stand for fear that my weakness for them would take over.

I used to buy everything sugar free I could find, and then I realized I did that because nothing was doing the trick or satisfying that sweet tooth.  So, I got therapy and was able to do away with my good food bad food list and the guilt games I used to play with myself.  So, now I allow myself a real treat every once in a while in an amount right for me that doesn't make me sick.  And I  will be five years out in January and still maintaining my loss.  So, it is working for me.  Luckily, the sweet tooth only strikes me about once per week.  LOL.  That I can manage.  I will be reading the replies to this for new ideas.  Good question.

Shari, everything sounds good can't do the milkshakes though...Lactose intolerant.  How do you make the Cottage Cheese Pancakes?

You can make your shakes with cold light vanilla soy milk-- I sometimes do!

I make all kinds of crepes and pancakes-- start with this simple recipe:

1/4 cup egg beaters
1/4 cup fat free cottage cheese
2 tbsp wheat flour
dash cinnamon
pkt of Splenda

Mix 'em all together and pour into 4 small pancakes in a pan sprayed with cooking spray. Use 0 cal Walden Pancake Syrup, or top with fruit or NSA pie filling-- and nutrition is as follows for the whole shebang:

Cals 121
Fat  .3g
Carbs  15.4 g
Protein 14.1 g
