You are allowed 75 calories a day of sugar free treats so that is prolly what you are reading about.

Thank you, that helped alot, :D I just dont understand how you can have a treat with no sugar? Does Splenda count?

yes... actually a really good treat is this

Take 1 no sugar added fudgsicle, 2 Tbsp natural peanut butter, and 2 tbsp light cool whip blend together and put in freezer for like 15 mins and it is like ice cream
