I'm CRAVING chocolate...I even let myself have a little piece today, hoping that it would satisfy my craving. I'm going to look at sugar free cocoa tonight after work, and if I get really desperate I'll make "ice cream sandwiches" by putting light cool whip between chocolate grahams and freezing it (an old weight watchers recipe). I know I need to overcome it, but does anyone have a healthy solution or recipe to satisfy the chocolate craving?

    Have a good piece of dark chocolate as someone stated.
    I also agree the fiber 1 brownies are very good!
    Another option is Healthy Choice or Weight Watchers fudgesicles. They make many flavors..I have 1 almost everyday..only 100 calories. I think Skinny Cow makes them as well as candy now.

    I think reducing my sugar intake has helped me lessen my cravings for chocolate. I only crave it during my time of the month and a few dark choc. covered strawberries do the trick for me =) or as the others have said just a few pieces of a quality dark chocolate

    Have you tried vita-tops? They have them in some stores, or you can order them on-line. The chocolate flavors are sooo good, and only 100-120 calories. That's my go-to late night snack!

    Get some of the fine chocolate with chili peppers in it. It will first taste like that amazing chocolate that you are craving in a small bite and then heat up. You will be fine with one piece. and you get your fix.

    I have fat free sugar free hot chocolate. The liquid fills you up, and even if you use 2 packets (20-25 cal each) to make it extra chocalaty it only comes to 50 calories.

    Here are a few of my favorite ways to squash a chocolate craving:
    Vitatops
    Diet Hot Chocolate (swiss miss variety tastes great and only has 25 calories per pouch)
    Sugar Free fudgesicles
    Pure protein chocolate flavored protein bars

    Also, here's a link to a website with some great healthy chocolate recipes too:

    Get a box of chocolate cake mix. Mix with one can of diet cherry coke. Yes, that's right diet cherry coke. Put in cupcake pan (it makes 2 doz.) and bake according to directions. One cupcake with a dab of non-fat cool whip- 2 weight watchers points. I freeze them and when I need a fix.....takes a minute to thaw!!!

    Really? I love M&M's and 100 calories is not that bad. Trouble is I will go past 28., but I will give this a try. Thanks

    This :heart: M&Ms are so perfect, and the more I get into it, the fewer I want at a time. Love love love.
