I am doing good with eliminating the bad stuff. Ie carbs after a certain hour, white bread & rice, etc... Stock up on fruits and stuff. But every now and again I just want some candy. Are their any fat free and sugar free candies that you ladies can recommend?

Russel Stovers has good chocolates and candies, BUT...if you eat too many, the sugar alcohols from the chocolate make you have a rumbly in your tumbly :lol: If you eat more than 1 or 2, you WILL regret any of the sugar free candies

I found that York peppermint patties come sugar free and has no trans fat also lifesavers sorberts are the same way. Anyone know of anything else?

There are plenty but like InNeedOfHairapy said, you have to be careful. Something in sugar free candies don't agree with my stomach.

I agree with the candies taste excellent but you cannot eat too much.

Strawberry creme savers. I love them! I ate teh whole bag bag the 1st time I bought them. My stomach wasn't happy. That's when I noticed the warning on the label.
I think it's the mannitol and sorbitol that sugar-free candies have which causes those stomach rumbles followed by diarrhea.

If you like Dark Chocolate, try the Sugar Free SUGER ALCOHOL FREE chocolate bars and chocolate chips by Eat Well Be Well. You have to order them, though.
