      Dark chocolate is delicious and if you were craving it and had a portioned amount why feel bad? Just log it and eat the rest of your calories for the day. There's no need to feel bad if it fits into your daily goal.

      A) Dark chocolate is not junk.
      B) That's 124 calories. You'll live.

      If you can't work 124 calories into your day/week, then you need to reassess your calorie goals/activity level.

      Eat "healthy" 80% of the time. Fit yummy, portion-controlled treats into your calorie goal.

      Dark chocolate covered coffee beans are in my diet most days but 4 or 5 beans, not handfuls. 8 Calories each.

      If it fits, why not?

      Dark chocolate is fantastic and loaded with health benefits. I eat 2 small squares (fingernail sized) every day but to really get the health benefits you apparently want to be eating 85%+.

      Food is not "bad" or "good", it's just food. It should not be a source of emotional stress. Eat whatever you want, as long as it fits into your calories.

      Dark chocolate is fantastic!! I like the really dark stuff - 86% cacoa.
