If you have a craving for cookies, it doesn't matter if they're sugar-free. You're still likely to eat too many of them. Over-eating (of anything) works against you.

Time to retrain. Next time you get that cookie craving, grab a protein snack instead. Chicken breast anyone? Or try something savory, like olives. It's kind of hard to overeat olives.

That cookie craving isn't real hunger, is it?
