Zafiro, SF jelly is my saviour also.  I make one up and either have a whole 1pint portion on its own or whisk up a small amount of evaporated milk to make a mousse.
It really satisfies that urge for a sweet something.

Thanks Monnagran for that tip. I'm always looking for ideas and that's a new one - thanks

Welcome Killielila.  , and well done on losing 2 pounds already.  How are you finding MFP? This is the calorie counting app, isnt it? 
Is it UK based? I have looked at ITrackbites, but it is American and so is most of the food listed, plus the confusion with cups.

Welcome killielila no sneaking need around here    I've added you to the chart and put in your 2lb as well earned it (did anyone else learn to spell that as earnt?) 

Well done Honey lovely number this, I find the best way is not be question it but get off the scales quickly before it changes it mind and enjoy it 

I've given myself a kick up the *** as well, I've been pottering along with a good day followed by a bad day, so i need to shake myself out of that. I'm going to try to have a really good week to kick start myself again and going to try to avoid any 'treat's as that's a slippery slope for me - just one never stops at one   

B- 0% greek yoghurt, banana, strawberries, blueberries
L - pasta with tomato and veg sauce and 20g grated cheese
D - Jerk lamb steak with dirty rice and peas (black beans!) tenderstem broccoli and french beans 
S - pineapple and loads of water!!

If I write it down hopefully at 9pm I won't succumb to something sweet

 they have   Uk stuff on it n I have it connected to my step tracker on my phone.  Like everything it's a good tool when you use it.  it beeps at me to remind me to log my meals so makes me actually think  about it and less mindless nomming
