Fixs for chocolate cravings?

At first, when I was trying to teach myself willpower, I switched from having dessert every day to having a green smoothie every day. When I had chocolate cravings I would make a smoothie with spinach, a banana, frozen cherries, almond milk, and a tablespoon or two of cocoa powder. I swear to god it tastes like black forest cake, not even joking.

Fiber one 90 calorie brownies.
Side note, I did a comparison between a fun size snickers and the above mentioned bar. Believe it or not the snickers had less calories and a couple other things (I did this over a month ago forgive me) and was higher in fat by 1g and sugar as well if memory serves.
My point is you don't have to give it up, believing you have limits hinders yourself in my opinion. Just stick with moderation, have your chocolate just not as much or not as often
I'm sure someone will give me hell but I had to put in my 2¢

what works for me is a chocolate diet shake. Not the greatest but the one I have is soo chocolatey and creamy its just right. Iv only got enough for 2 shakes left so after that Im not buying more. Im someone who cant have junk in the house or il eat it all! But I did only have 1 square of white choc and strawberry chocolate last night,the whole bar was 1000cals so I thought no way was I having more then 1 square!

A chocolate treat for dessert (small, and logged in your diary) isn't the end of the world if you weigh and log a healthy diet. I give myself 200 cals for dessert. Stick to items with dark chocolate, imo. Trader Joe's is a good source of treats, but you -must- have will power. If you know you're eventually going to start snacking on chocolate all day, or that your dessert is going to quickly be 500 cals... then don't have them in the house.

RE: Shakes. My lunch is a chocolate (healthy) shake. Day in, day out. I've tried many different brands, and even have made my own with everything from unsweetened all natural cocoa powder to cocoa nibs.

Honestly, if i thought it was remotely healthy to have a chocolate shake for every meal, I would. But unfortunately, for the time being i still eat real meals for everything but lunch.

RE: the Dairy conversation -- highly support switching to rice or almond milk. It's easy to think cow's milk is good for you because we've been told that our entire lives. It's nowhere near as good as we're told. If you do drink milk, source it from local small cow/goat dairies you can actually visit and meet the cows/goats. There's a world of difference between those farms and the milk you get at the supermarket in both hormone/antibiotic content and reduction in general cruelty to animals.

Raw vegan powdered cocoa powder in a shake with strawberries, almond milk and a banana! Fabulous AND healthy unlike dairy

Dairy is unfairly demonized, mainly among the vegan population. I am not buying into unless someone has sensitivity to dairy products.

A good documentary on the subject is "Got the Facts on Milk" (2011):

chcolate shakeology - this is my breakfast so I get dessert for breakfast each day!

www.shakeology.com

it's the best meal of the day!!!! Seriously, I have used it for 3 years now and have never felt better in my life.

Add cocoa powder to your favorite instant oatmeal.

another vote for really dark chocolate. a small piece satisfies me, sometimes i eat it with peanut butter too.

Chocolate whey protein powder + 1 Tbsp PB2 + a couple Tbsp of water.

I indulge it- I like dark chocolate, I like milk chocolate too, but most of the time I want dark. So the little lindt bars or a couple of dark chocolate kisses- I like the little pre-packaged ones so that I can stretch them out through the day. I just make sure it fits w/ in my goal.

I like a bit of the Green and Black's 85% dark chocolate. I find I can eat just a little bit of that and it doesn't send me into chocolate crazy town.

I love cereal bars, hate all the crap they put in them. I usually go with dark chocolate, or I just save up and eat whatever, and if you're trying to avoid peanuts, there are other nut butters out there (sunflower, almond, cashew) that are still good for you, have protein, and if you're running low on calories, are an excellent boost. Sometimes I just have a spoon of cashew butter for dessert. Yum. It's ok to have some of what you want, it's just moderation is the key, and making caloric-room for it. Or just go for it, otherwise you may binge eat a carton of chocolate ice cream.

I really like the Deep Chocolate Vitatops. They've got a good amount of fiber so they're filling! I don't have any of those in the house right now and I've had the chocolate cravings all weekend so it's been cocoa pebbles for me. Not the healthiest but it worked for the craving!

I didn't read any of the other responses, but my go-to's for chocolate are one or two Hershey's Dark Chocolate Kisses or a Chocolate Rice cake. The kisses are only 20 calories each and the rice cake is only 60.
