these 2 tips might help with the sweet cravings.........
place a small amount of salt on your tongue.
dissolve about 1 tsp. of baking soda in a glass of warm tap water and just rinse your mouth out. don't swallow!!!

these two methods work because they tend to stimulate the hypothalamus gland, causing the papillae to become active and secrete saliva, this will eliminate the craving for sweets.
