:love: I love chocolate. I have a candy bar every day. They are always gone too fast! How do you get your chocolate fix and not brake the bank on calories? :love:

    i LIVE for chocolate!!! I work it into my daily calories. My two favorite ways to get my daily chocolate fix are skim milk with dark chocolate syrup or dark chocolate raisins. I tell myself that they are healthy chocolate...lol

    I do not keep any other chocolate in the house well, actually I do also have some Fiber One Brownies in the freezer ~ another great treat for only 90 calories.

    I love chocolate skim milk or I"ll make a chocolate smoothie with whey protein. There are a lot of recipes online for choc smoothies and the protein in them fills me up and ends my sweet tooth.

    Luckily I am not a chocoholic, I do enjoy a bit of chocolate, but it can get sickly if I eat too much.

    I have started drinking protein shakes:

    Soya Milk
    Chocolate Whey Protein


    Gives me a nice little chocolate like taste with a reasonable amount of protein :D

    A tsp of cocoa powder mixed with plain Greek yogurt and stevia.
    Or I'll have a tbsp dark chocolate chips with my afternoon snack of nuts or pb.

    Yogurt with cocoa powder sounds yummy. I'll have to give that a try. I usually get my chocolate fix with miniature candy bar. Just one is all it takes and I feel like I am splurging.

    My main source of chocolate is through my chocolate protein powder. I mix it with plain greek yogurt and peanut butter to make a protein filled snack and sweet treat all in one! :)

    If I have the calories and am really craving some chocolate (which I LOVE), I just eat a small amount. I know myself and if I keep trying to ignore my craving, I'll end of gorging myself on it instead.

    Almond milk mocha (heat up almond milk, add a scoop of instant coffee, a scoop of cocoa powder, and some stevia or other sweetener. Use a whisk to combine and turn it into a foamy, frothy cup of heaven)

    I love dark chocolate and it's the only kind of chocolate I can eat in moderation. Otherwise I am stuffing my face with candy. You may try the baking morsels. The are small in size but you get lots of them to eat in a serving (measure them out to keep yourself accountable).

    Snickers Mini Ice Cream bars are only 90 Calories. And one always gets rid of my chocolate/sweet craving at night.

    I love chocolate. I eat a square or two of dark chocolate daily.
    If I want more chocolate, I'll make my own hot chocolate from scratch with milk, cocoa, and I use less sugar than a mix would. I eat an extra square of chocolate. I eat PB2 chocolate flavor with apple slices. I've air popped popcorn and added cocoa powder and sugar to a bit of melted butter and poured that over the popcorn (messy, but yummy).

    At home, I have Fiber Plus chocolate chip bars and a varitey of chocolate flavored protein bars handy. Also, in the summer I always have sugar free Fudgcicles on hand - they're so good!

    At work, I have the same bars and access to mini Hershey's dark chocolate bars at our candy store.

    Smoothie- made with chocolate almond breeze, Chocolate PB2,1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder,
    banana and ice

    Chocolate animal crackers

    Hershey kisses- 9 for 200 calories Lasts longer than a candy bar because you have to open each one. I did give these up for Lent because I found that I was eating them every day.

    Have you tried Russell Stovers sugar free chocolate. It sounds nasty but when you can have two pecan delights, or mint patties and the calories are not that high...go for it. I get my from the grocery store (Giant, Safeway, or Walmart). I hope this helps.

    Mmmm. I eat chocolate every day. I have a package of m&ms that I will take out about 5, and then put the package back into my drawer so I only eat the ones in front of me. Or I eat a cookie. I just find ways to have chocolatey things. :)
