Cannot stop thinking about buying a chocolate candy bar or bag of candy... haven't gotten over craving sweet things.. not even by a little bit =(
So buy a candy bar.
If you keep trying to deny yourself a candy bar that you really want, you'll end up passed out face first into a 5-lb bag of Reese's Pieces with your face covered in runny mascara.
There's nothing wrong with a candy bar. Eat one.
"Eat one" may be the issue. Some people can't have just one. One turns into 2, then before you know it, you've eaten about ten times more than you should.
OP, you're not cravings sweets and chocolate. You don't need them, you want them. You need nutrients...eat those instead.0 -

She's 26, and if that's her in her profile picture, I hardly think a piece of chocolate is going to hurt her.
If YOU have a bad relationship with food, I'm sorry that has happened to you. Sincerely.
But just judging by OP's profile, she doesn't appear to have the same problem.
Now... if OP has a chocolate allergy or whatever, different story...0 -

You know what causes people to "not have just one"? Deprivation and over-thinking. RE: The story about landing face down in a 5lb bag of Reese's Pieces.
Not everyone has the "can't eat just one" problem.0 -

if you're actually craving chocolate you could be deficient in magnesium.
I realise not everyone has the "can't eat just one" problem. which is why I said "some people"0 -

i have chocolate if I want it. but i don't need it.
many people can't do moderation. not everyone can have "just one". for those people, not having any is the best way to go. do you tell an alcoholic to just drink in moderation?0 -
That's my problem, learning to stop at just one.0

I am right this minute eating a skinny cow chocolate truffle ice cream bar good substitute.0

I love chocolate covered potato chips!0 -
I'm the same, so I limit myself to savoury foods only until 6pm, which works for me. The only exception I allow myself is sweet white grapes - they keep me going until the deadline's passed!0

I eat chocolate literally every day. I'm currently trying to decide on tonight's chocolate food of choice.
I say: eat it, log it, and carry on.
There's no reason why you can't work your favorite treats into your calorie goal.0 -

Chocolate, holiday food and holiday drinking = feeling absolutely terrible (almost back to my heaviest weight) so now I am trying to get back on track with a vengence0

You need food, but you don't need sweets and chocolate. You are not going to die without them
Everyone has different ways to deal with their food issues. Most of the other posts told the op to just eat what she wanted. Perhaps that's not the answer for her, so I'm not sure how it's wrong to offer an alternative.0
