    Assuming your getting a balanced diet and staying in your calorie limit. Go for it. Weight loss is about calorie deficit. Balancing nutrient intake for health. I routinely eat a bowl of ice cream every night and lost 53 lbs ;P I find not depriving myself and teaching must moderation really helped make it sustainable.

    +1. And this. This will help you make sure you're not overdoing the chocolate, or whatever you want, and getting what you need. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/925464-fitting-it-in-giggity

    I eat a square, sometimes two depending on how my calories look, of 72% dark chocolate most every evening. Also, frozen yogurt. It it fits, you must acquit!

    I have days I walk extra far and make sure I make/eat lower calorie meals just to make room for my chocolate. If I had to give it up this bus would never make it with me on board.

    Edit: Admittedly... I have be compulsively buying it and then not eating it at the rate I am acquiring it due to my calorie restrictions... some habits are hard to break. Used to eat nearly 2k calories a day JUST in chocolate, not including my "normal" food.

    I am not dieting. I am eating. I find when I drop the term dieting I don't feel half so guilty for consuming food - a necessity for life! And I certainly don't feel guilty about allowing myself sweet things. I think I would die without sweets of some sort.

    I eat dark chocolate covered pomegranite every day. I eat a small portion and it fits into my calories and I have been loosing weight consistently. My chocolate craving is satisfied. I don't see a problem, especially with dark chocolate. It's about portions. :drinker:

    yes! every day! first time I lost weight I called it my "half a Crunchie bar-a-day" diet.... because I ate half a Crunchie bar every day.... this time around I'm aiming for healthier foods - so trying to have dark chocolate instead... but yes - definitely eat some every day!!! life would be sad without it!!
