    Add some Whey Protein to your diet. I added the Double Chocolate version and it helps out a lot. Dark Chocolate works as well, but with the Whey Protein your adding much needed Proteins to your diet as well!

    I agree with all previous advice! Check out this blog too. I do a lot of these recipes to get some dessert varieties. Granted, these are if I'm feeling ambitious. I always keep some yummy dark chocolate chips handy!

    Like already said (repeatedly), a square or two of really dark chocolate (70% cocoa and up) can always be fitted in.
    If that is not enough, a homemade shake of cottage cheese, some fruit and a teaspoon of cocoa powder really helps. A lot.

    I just eat it, and then it's not there anymore to taunt me with its delicious ways. #sorrynothelping

    When i want chocolate i eat it. Usually dark chocolate.
    You can eat anything as long as you calculate it in your calories.

    you can lose weight and have a small piece everyday, or you can do what I do which is buy 2 high quality truffles a couple times a month. I find low quality chocolate doesn't satisfy the craving as much as something of a higher grade.. maybe it's due to sugar content?

    Start making healthy, within your calories chocolate treats. When I say healthy, I mean that honey is the type of sweetener you are using for your dessert. Reason? Low glycemic. Google chocolate mug cakes and any other whole food based chocolate treats. No need to give up chocolate - that would be a horrible way to live!

    I'm the other way. Low quality seems to deter me more than high - again, probably the sugar content. I can have a proper 'serve' (weighed) of low quality chocolate and leave it at that. But a serve of decent chocolate...and I start making excuses as to why I *can* eat the rest. I have low quality mini easter eggs (from Easter!) still. The better stuff went before the end of April.
