okay suggestions of those Lower Calorie Chocolates that you don't feel bad for eating, my fave is those little Kinder Chocolate Bars the little ones are like 6 for £1 and are 70cals each which i thinks great, so this post is too what chocolates others eat whilsts keeping a lower calorie intake.

    I have a huge sweet tooth, and I definitely need an alternative to the cookie jar at work. I heard other rave about those kind bars. I'm going to have to check them out.

    Erm... also - Cadbury crispellos (55 cals a piece). Milky way rolls (totally feel like a big chocolate bar, but small and lighter). Erm - Cadbury have just bought out Winter Wonderland - thats 133 cals for 1/4 of the big bar, is quite a big portion.

    I will have more I know it. I will post them when I remember them.

    Mmm choklit.

    If I want chocolate I just eat chocolate as long as I have enough calories in my day left to do so.

    You know what I've tried on accident? Eating the chocolate chips that you find in the baking section. You eat like 3 at a time, which is much slower than you would eat a candy bar. You get to actually taste it. Umm. White chocolate is so good. I normally eat sugarless chocolate when I think that I'll want a lot of it. Not everyone can handle sugar alcohols, though.

    That's always how it starts. The beginning of the end:


    "let's talk, richard/tom/sebastian/joe/insertdearjohnpersonhere"

    please don't break up with me :brokenheart:

    :laugh: You're so silly.
    ...Or, "Let's talk..." Then, comes the chocolate after the breakup.
    Lindt 90% chocolate. Darn, now that I am thinking about it, will have to go get a square (60 cals) out of the cupboard!

    When I was pregnant, I had gestational diabetes. I could eat 3 chocolate chips and stay within my sugar limits, and it satisfied my chocolate craving.

    You two have such amazing self-control.

    Chocolate chips. When I was pregnant, I had gestational diabetes. I could eat 3 chocolate chips and stay within my sugar limits, and it satisfied my chocolate craving. I still eat them in small amounts when I need chocolate but low calorie. Also, I make meringue cookies (egg whites and sugar) with chocolate chips in them. Yummy texture, extra protein, and very low calorie.

    My favourite is Pana Chocolate, which is an Australian brand (not sure if it's available elsewhere). It's a raw, organic, vegan-friendly chocolate with two big squares coming in at roughly 85 calories, depending on which flavour you get. Hand on heart, I think it tastes fantastic. So do all my friends who I've given it to :wink: It's not "good ... for a 'health food' chocolate". It's just plain GOOD. Really rich, a beautiful smooth and almost fudgy texture ... I'll take it over Cadbury any day. SO YUMMY.

    Lindt - 85% Cocoa Extra Dark Chocolate 53 calories. As an alternative, you could, for example, budget for your daily sweet tooth.

    Ooh, yes, the dark Lindt is so good. But I also make space for the occasional Lindor Truffle, which is about 63 calories, if I remember correctly.

    I usually eat 5 pieces of Galaxy Cookie Crumble (21 cals a piece). Sometimes I'll have a Freddo (95 cals) or Milky Way Crisp Roll (60something per roll I think, can't remember). But I like the Cookie Crumble. I suck each piece and it's usually enough to satisfy my chocolate craving.

    When I need-yes I said need chocolate, I drink a super chocolate hot cocoa. It consist of: 4 oz of of skim milk, 1oz of carnation evaported milk, 1/2 a packet of Swiss hot cocoa, and 7 semi sweet cholate chips. It yeilds 110 calories, but only 1.5 grams of fat. It is a semi-healthy treat without the extra sugar. Your taste buds will be overwhelmed with chocolate bliss!

    Thanks. Gonna try this. Is it just as sweet/chocolaty as normal hot chocolate? You don't add water?

    I like regular chocolate. I will buy the Cadbury 120g bars. I limit my self to 3 squares (or 6 if I'm feeling really naughty) at the most (around 85 calories per 3 squares) but only if it's within my goal. Otherwise I take Kellogs chocolatey rice crispy bars at about 150cals to work. I occasionally have a snickers (when I am really craving it) but they're not really worth the calories.

    Personally I love the 70% cocoa plus stuff. Also sea salt in chocolate. I must admit I can have a square and move on. And for cheaper chocolate, like Celebrations, Quality Street etc. (UK stuff) that gets thrown around at work, I can simply smell the box and feel like I've had my fix ...
