I've found that if you're really hungry and are in danger of going off plan, reach for fat rather than carbs. Add an avocado or some extra butter/fat to your meals. A lot of people have trouble with dairy, though, so limit the heavy cream. It's been my experience that giving in to the sweet cravings, even with "legal" artificial sweeteners, is a bad idea because it just feeds the cravings rather than eliminating the cravings. Best to avoid artificial sweeteners.
That said, when I first did Atkins back in the late 1990s, my one treat for the day would be a jello cup with a squirt of real whipped cream. It was enough to take the edge off, enough to think I was having a treat, but it never affected weight loss and never caused more cravings.
