We can be the most dedicated to our diet and our workout routine but I don’t care who you are, every once in a while you will crave sweets. Unfortunately, most of the sweets available on the market are calorie dense and nutrient free products. These are a big threat to your weight loss goals. To help you stay on your path to get lean and fit, I have compiled a list of 10 foods that will satisfy your sweet tooth without destroying all the hard work you did in your workout routine.
The Top 10 of Sweets that won’t kill your Workout Routine
Fruit
You probably feel like sticking your tongue out at me right now but honestly, fruit is a really good way to satisfy your sweet tooth. Almost all servings of the size of your fist are less than 100 calories and have no fat. Another good thing about fruit is that it is full of fiber, which helps you stay full longer, and it has natural sugar instead of processed or artificial sweeteners.
Dark Chocolate
This sweet is the best for that time of the month. Also it is full of antioxidants and you need very little to sustain your craving for something delectable. Depending on the brand, about 3 ounces of dark chocolate in less than 100 calories.
Strawberries with Low Fat Yogurt- Mmmmmm!
Just imagine yourself being fed by a tall, dark and handsome man.
Fudgesicle
This snack is great on a hot day after a good sweaty workout routine. Make sure to pick the no fat, low calorie version.
Spongecake
A slice of this fluffy confection will definitely have you satisfied. If you sacrifice the size of the sponge cake you can even get in some strawberries and low fat whipped cream in less than 100 calories.
Kettle Corn
You can get kettle corn in 100-calorie packets and they are a double whammy because they will satisfy your sweet and your salty cravings.
Sugar Free Pudding or Jello
The variety of flavors in this category will never allow you to be bored. All flavors are less than 100 calories in around a little under a cup.
Grapefruit with Honey
This sweet snack will make you feel healthy and refreshed. The honey combats the bitterness of the grapefruit for a perfect balance.
Caramel Coffee
Sweeten your coffee with tsp of caramel topping for a quick pick me up with a sweet spin.
Frozen Fruit Bar
There are many different types of all natural fruit bars that are delicious and nutritious. My favorite is the coconut!
