I actually do this when I’m at my wits end, and need something sweet! For some reason, during my pregnancy, after I ate, I hated the taste of food in my mouth, and would reach for something sweet, to get rid of it. I then started doing it all the time, just a cookie or something, I would rationalize! Now that I can’t do that, I reach for a sweet minty piece of gum, and it has helped me tremendously to not grab a cookie or some candy after dinner!
