    Jell-O Dark Chocolate Sugar Free Pudding Cups. I think they are like 60 calories and delicious.

    I eat chocolate. I don't over indulge, I make sure I have room for it. I try to keep Dove milk chocolate induvidual pieces in the house. If I only have room for one, that's all I get. If I have room for more, I'll eat more. If I'm craving a brownie I'll eat it. Same concept, I eat what my calories allow.

    I eat it. I just try to keep it in my calorie goal. Dark chocolate is probably the healthiest option for chocolate but sometimes I just need a Twix, Rees'e PB cups or something like that. Chocolate chip peanut butter Larabars are delish!

    I eat chocolate. I keep a stash of assorted minis. For brownie craving I have a fiber one chocolate brownie for only 90 calories. On days I feel like chocolate I do an extra workout to burn a little more and earn extra calories.

    Well let's see yesterday I had a kit kat bar and a hershey's bar. I love the cookies and cream hershey bar and the drops too. Lindor Lindt white chocolate balls are amazing. Milky Way, Twix, Caramello, I love chocolate!!!

    I keep a Dove dark chocolate bar in my desk at work for when I have a craving. I usually take 2 squares and it does the trick. I didn't like dark chocolate in the past but I find that if it's milk chocolate, I would eat the entire bar so I started using the dark to satisfy that urge and it works well. I've actually started to like it. I crave brownies a lot too! I love some brownies! I haven't tried it, but I hear there's a recipe for black bean brownies that are awesome. Google it. :flowerforyou:

    Hersheys special dark cocoa powder mixed into anything! It's 10 cals per tbsp., huge chocolate taste, and full of antioxidants and iron. I put a few tbsp. is my protein powder, coffee, almond milk (for cocoa), in the blender with frozen bananas for a better than icecream treat. Anywhere. I don't even eat "chocolate" anymore, but I get my chocolate fix every day.

    This just may be a personal preference but when I get cravings for sweet stuff I munch on some strawberries, pineapple, mangoes...natural sugar!

    I absolutely frickin' love chocolate, though, so when I crave I eat a few blocks of dark chocolate...it's between 70-90% cocoa. I find if you eat a little piece in the morning, you won't have sugar cravings for the rest of the day.

    Kind bars with chocolate. Some are plus with protein, some are plus with antioxidants, etc. Doesn't give you a sugar rush. Have to leave room for the calories, though.

    Oh yeah! Fiber One brownies are good too, and the chocolate chip cookie ones!

    I used to keep a bag of Hershey Kisses and try to eat just one when I have a craving. But, that became too hard for me to control myself. I just try to stay away from it altogether. Not that easy though...

    I like 65%-80% dark chocolate and keep blocks of it in my freezer.

    for me, by the time I've finished the frozen piece, the craving is gone.

    if I still crave it and know I shouldn't continue, I have a really bitter (95%) bar that I nibble off of. since it is just a little TOO bitter for my tastes, it kills the chocolate craving.

    I eat chocolate. Denying yourself the things you enjoy is setting yourself up for failure. Learn how to factor treats into your daily calorie allowance so you never feel overly restricted.
