When you have oatmeal for breakfast, make it as usual and then once heated, sprinkle a teaspoon of chocolate chips over it. Don't stir them in.0

Open mouth. Insert chocolate.0

Indeed there is , the higher the cocoa content the better , and then in small amounts.0

I'm not reading through any replies, it's just too early.
Just eat the damn chocolate! It won't kill you and won't make you fat. If you want anything and it fits within your calorie goal go ahead and enjoy it!0 -
Melted with Strawberries dipped in it. If you just dip the ends in you get your fix and usually end up eating much less than the norm.
Let the chocolate cool again in the fridge, even better.0 -
No cravings, but I do have one square of Lindt "Noir absolu" 99% every day - 13 cals.0

I have been buying those endangered species chocolate bars. They have 72% cocoa and 10% of the sale is donated.to help support conservation goals. It is 210 for half a bar. I usually just have one square a day and that is 50 calories but cures my chocolate cravings.0

I have been having serious chocolate cravings this week. Luckily I have stayed strong in resisting the urge to go out and by anything chocolate.
I was wondering if there was any "healthy" way to have a little bit of chocolate now and then?
I don't crave chocolate, per se, but I have a sweet tooth. I always want something sweet after a meal. So for lunch every day, I have six squares of Green & Black's 85% cocoa dark chocolate, usually with a little peanut butter. Dark chocolate is an appetite suppressant and full of antioxidants and all sorts of good stuff. Also, this brand isn't as bitter as others and it's very rich, so a little bit is more than enough.0 -
Just eat it0

I'm a serious chocaholic but these have been just enough for my sweet tooth lately0 -
If I have a craving for chocolate, I eat some. I don't even worry about what kind of chocolate it is. I just fit it into my calories.

I have 2 hersheys kisses everyday and let them slowly melt in my mouth. Takes care of the craving and only 40 calories.0

A piece of dark chocolate with natural peanut butter on top. My nana recommended it to me. It sounds really good.0

I buy the richest, darkest chocolate I can find. One little square is more than enough to satisfy a chocolate craving. As long as it fits within your daily goals, enjoy some chocolate!0

I have recently moved to dark chocolate and I find it satisfies the craving more. Well except this hormone week.
Ironically since eating that rather than milk chocolate I hate 1) started losing weight again and 2) now cannot stand milk chocolate.
I also especially like the cherry chocolate, can I find any though?!0 -
Having a small piece of dark chocolate is actually healthy and beneficial. If you prefer milk chocolate, I would recommend you eat it right after some strength training.0

I eat some dark chocolate with my oatmeal in the morning. Makes it taste yummy.0

Like many others, I eat chocolate practically every day. Sometimes dark, sometimes milk, occasionally white. I haven't had any problems losing or maintaining weight, and I'm healthy. I've also learned to really savour and appreciate the chocolate I do eat, because it's in smaller quantities than I used to have.0 -
Smothered all over my body. Wait, what? I have a hard time eating just a little bit of chocolate. So when I need some, I buy a bar and eat it all.
I dont see anything unhealthy going on here. Why doesnt it say this on the damn label. Thats why I got fat I was eating the chocolate ALL WRONG!0
