I have a chocolate bar a day - not some crappy little snack bar becuase if I had a bag of those in the house, you could be sure I would just eat the amount of cals in a normal bar! Do you think I should try and cut this out? I found before I was leaving it as a treat till saturday and I just binged on everything in site, now since I have spread it out during the week, I look forward to my chocolate bar after my dinner and then i am completely satisfied. I know there is healthier alternatives like dark chocolate - but I really hate dark chocolate! What do you think?

    If you're within your calorie for the day and it keeps the urge to binge under control it can only be a good thing, right? You still get enjoy your food and maintain healthy sensible food the rest of the time so I say stick with it.

    If its within your calories and stops the binge then enjoy it, there is no problem in this at all.

    If it fits in your macros, you're eating a balanced diet with healthy things as well as chocolate and you're still reaching your goals and feel healthy, then do what works for you. This seems to work for you. I eat chocolate or something like it almost every day as well, it's impeded me none..

    Agree with everyone else - if it works for you, falls within your macros and keeps you on the straight and narrow, more power to ya sister ;)
