well,whenever you are craving sweets, chew some sugar free gum(it helps)

Well, you could try eating fruits that have natural sugars in them (like strawberries,peaches,grapes,etc.)so that they don't taste so bad. Also, you can make a plan that you will have sweets only like once or twice a week. Another thing that will help a lot is to drink more water. Hope I helped!

Just tell you parents not to buy that kind of stuff anymore - or if you live alone, just don't buy it - and if they still do, whenever you get hungry for a sweet, just go for a run aroun the block and that will take away your craving. I hope i helped!! :)

Slowly start getting yourself away from them and more towards fruits and veggies. What you can do is dip apples in chocolate or peanut butter. and slowly get away from the sweet part and just eat the fruit along. I dunno, that might work. Or just stop buying those sort of things so they wont be around the house for you to have. Hope I helped.

I can relate to your problem. The only thing you can do is use some will-power and really keep yourself from eating all that junk. Instead of grabbing junk food for a snack try eating some fruit. I think fruit is the best alternative because it still has sugar - it's just natural sugar. It's also sweet and what's best is that it's good for you. But also keep playing sports. It'll help keep you in shape while you're eating better. Plus sports kick ass! haha

i now how you feel it is so hard sometimes to give up something that is everywhere like sweets. but who said you have to go cold turkey. first you need to think about how much sweets you eat or drink (softdrinks where my thing) an then think of a way to slowly cut them out. for me it was stop drinking softdrinks during lunch, then cutting down from there. it tuff at first but soon you will be surprised how easy it can be

If you don't eat sweets for about 2 weeks, you just stop having cravings for them. Try that! If it doesn't work then just trying eating tasty foods that don't have a lot of fat. Like fruit and low-fat ice cream, i donno. Good luck!

well try fat free things and low carb things you could have sweets but cut down and like once in a while it is ok but not to much and don't eat to much junk food either it will make you FATTER.

Try low sugar/low carb or sugar free desserts. You could also make your own cakes, candybars and cookies using a sugar substitute so that you can control the amount of fat and sugar (calories) that are in the sweets that you eat. Also, if you only eat what you make yourself you might eat less of it since cooking takes time which you might not have in abundance.
If you want to add something onto your exercise program try walking with low weight ankle and wrist weights on for 30 minutes a day. Best Wishes!
P.S. Im not a doctor so if you have any health problems consult a doctor before changing your diet or exercise routine.

when you get hungry just force yourself to eat something else healthier than sweets.. youll feel good about yourself if you know that youre eating right and getting enough excercise.
