Every month I'm faced with 3 days when I crave sugar. Am I alone? Any good tips how to successfully bypass the cravings?
maybe i'm just bloated?

You're not alone and I have had these sort of cravings for years and years. My 'sweetness' or sugar cravings have often been met from cookies, more recently I've been eating licorice which I think is a little better and I am now buying a lot more dried fruits, like apricot and apple to get me through.

Join the club! I indulge in some low fat yogurt or ice cream when those cravings kick in. Have not found a way to bypass them.

The WW icecreams are good, portioned controlled as well.

Need suggestions on healthy/low-calorie foods.
You can use shakes for a few days. I have used the Atkins shakes and they are very good tasting. Soups are good though as stated above you may have to puree them. You could puree or blend cottage cheese ...
