Whether it's a bit of chocolate between meals or a fancy latte drink instead of regular coffee, I think that all counts. So I voted for everyday.

We usully keep ice cream on hand and maybe some cookies. Weekends I like to bake, so then there might be brownies/cakes/cookies that I send with DH to work.

When I'm dieting, I cut back to a couple times a week. Life's too short for no sweets! Kimberlybee on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1327270 Wed, 08 Jan 2014 02:59:24 +0000 Kimberlybee 1327270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We don't really have that much desserts in the house b/c DH is not a sweets person. I almost always indulge though if we are eating out. We stock up on pints of Haagen Dazs ice cream which is the only thing he really likes. Even with this stocked up, he eats one pint a week. My biggest issue and weakness are carbs (bread, rice, and pasta....yummy)!

Mae on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324392 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 08:55:56 +0000 Mae 1324392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We usually have some form of desert *most* nights (i'd say 5 or 7). We just buy whatever sounds good. My fav are usually dark chocolate covered pretzels bc they are relatively low sugar per serving. My husband is a bit more into candy than I am. bpcmarj on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324365 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 08:33:46 +0000 bpcmarj 1324365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @LovelyPlum:@Mrs. Deer: chobani flips are a great dessert choice. They are sweet and crunchy, but still better for you than a traditional dessert. I like the coconut yogurt with almond and dark chocolate mix ins! bpcmarj on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324362 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 08:31:36 +0000 bpcmarj 1324362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I tend to have some kind of treat everyday, but I don't have dessert every night. I may have chocolate at work or something. We are big ice cream people and if we could eat Ben and Jerry's every night, we would. There have been many times where one of us leaves the house at 8:30 to get some! petunia354 on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324343 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 08:12:00 +0000 petunia354 1324343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I used to have something every day. Always a peppermint patty after lunch and then a couple cookies, bowl of ice cream or a square of dark chocolate after dinner every night. No wonder I'm still holding on to 30 lbs of baby weight :) I've cut that way down over the past week or 2. The key for me is to just not have anything sweet in the house!

As long as its homemade I don't mind. If we were eating Oreos and chips ahoy I'd want to cut back. illumina on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324224 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 02:37:04 +0000 illumina 1324224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I grew up having dessert, so we have it each night...cheesecake is our favourite choice! sandy on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324130 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 23:42:41 +0000 sandy 1324130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We both freaking love sweets so we can't have them in the house. Over the holidays we were having multiple cookies a day....and now we're trying to lose the holidays weight. I didn't grow up having dessert - we ate fruit after dinner. I don't think we'll ever have dessert on a regular basis. We'll have it occasionally or on special occasions but not an every day thing. Maybe a once a week thing lemondrop on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324116 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 23:32:06 +0000 lemondrop 1324116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm big on sweets, but don't do an official dessert very often, maybe monthly?

If it's in the house I'm going to eat it! :) @LovelyPlum: I used to be able to trick myself with some yogurt, especially if it was a yummy one. @luckypenny: You're a champ for only eating 2. I think every time we've bought Milano's the whole bag disappears pretty quick!

I am so extremely jealous!

I always have to have something sweet after dinner..sometimes its fruit, sometimes its ice cream. My day is incomplete without it :silly: AprilFool on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324049 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:49:54 +0000 AprilFool 1324049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Every night. It's a habit I would love to break but I try to keep the treat small, like a skinny cow. Proper desserts are saved for the weekend. mrskc on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324038 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:43:51 +0000 mrskc 1324038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have a major sweet tooth and enjoy a treat every night. stargal on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324037 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:43:17 +0000 stargal 1324037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Everyday.... I have a sweet treat. No shame lol luckypenny on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1324031 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:40:58 +0000 luckypenny 1324031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have a major sweet tooth but try and keep it under control for the most part. When it's bad we have 2 Milano cookies every night before bed.

That being said, we don't do desserts every night.

We typically only have dessert when were going to someone's house for dinner or are hosting ourselves. So maybe a few times a month. LovelyPlum on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1323989 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:21:51 +0000 LovelyPlum 1323989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We will usually have a cookie or two or a piece of chocolate a few nights a week. I also really like pudding. Tonight, I wanted something sweet, and I had some yogurt instead, which seemed to work. But that would not always tide me over! Boogs on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1323988 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:21:14 +0000 Boogs 1323988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ If I have them I will eat them daily lol. So I try to not stock up and when I bake I try to give lots away to limit how much I eat. Mamadee on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1323987 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:21:03 +0000 Mamadee 1323987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I love baking (or at least I used to pre baby!) so I have quite a few favorite desserts. But if I had to narrow it down I would say chocolate chip cookies or a warm brownie. I do make this wonderful cake with chocolate ganache and coffee cream filling but it's usually reserved for special occasions since it's so rich! lovehoneybee on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1323985 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:19:59 +0000 lovehoneybee 1323985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Not big on sweets, but I'll dig into a bowl of peanut butter and chocolate (bonus points if it's dark chocolate) ice cream a few times a month. Mrs. Deer on "How often do you eat dessert?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-eat-dessert#post-1323971 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 22:15:22 +0000 Mrs. Deer 1323971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ The hubs and I are doing a looser Whole30 this month (trying to do a little damage control after the holidays!) and tonight we were talking about what our plan will be with desserts when we're done. Got me curious what others do... Do you have a dessert schedule or just get treats when it sounds good? Bonus: What's your favorite dessert? Right now I'm super craving a warm chocolate chip cookie and some vanilla ice cream :)
