Me too. The only way I can drink coffee is with a mountain of Splenda in it. It would be a ridiculous amount of calories if I used sugar. Mmmmm...sweet stuff...

I also used to get those from sweeteners but not splenda thank gawd!

Your body still needs some fat so instead of eating a huge bowl just eat a half a cup. You can still have it just limit it. There are fat free Italian icys and sherbert and really good fat free ice cream. Sugar free does not mean fat free so be careful there.

That is exactly my problem at night!!!!!!! I started eating a bowl of Kashi cereal with fat free milk before bed. It totally worked.
