    Oreo quest bar is amazing as well as white chocolate raspberry. I'll have a no sugar jello pudding that you find in the fridge section of the grocery store. Or I'll make a protein pudding with a scoop of chocolate protein powder, a little no sugar jello pudding powder, some water and then microwave it and keep stopping and stirring and adding more water until it's pudding consistency and it's warm and gooey.

    Lake Champlain's Salted Caramel Chocolate. 3 squares and I was good (I did 2, stopped, then came back to the third later). Good quality chocolate, and also dark chocolate, will cure that craving.

    One thing that food journaling has made me aware of, is that if I'm going to spend calories on something like chocolate, than it's going to be good chocolate to make it worth it for me. I recently bought a few chocolate bars from Vosges. They're so good! I got the Super Dark set. Certainly intersting flavors. I'm planning on trying the Reishi Mushroom & Walnut bar this weekend.

    Whoa! I haven't seen the Reishi Mushroom and Walnut bar. That is Vosges as well? I've had a few of theirs and really love them. And at 8 dollars a bar I savor every bite.

    I also just eat chocolate; nothing wrong with it. I do the Lindt Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt -- it's about 50 cals a square, but after one or two I'm typically pretty satisfied.

    I will say, over the past few years of restricting calories and changing up my eating habits, I have given up a lot of chocolate, but because I don't actually enjoy it anymore. Milk or white chocolate which used to be my go-tos taste far too sweet to me now and more than a little of it and I actually seem to get a headache. Probably for the best though haha

    It is! I splurged and bought the super dark library. They're marketed as dark chocolate with 'super foods'. I don't put much stock in super foods, and I'm certainly not eating chocolate to be healthy. I do love dark chocolate, though, and the flavors looked interesting.

    I just eat real chocolate. GOOD chocolate. I am not wasting calories/money on 90 calorie chemical snacks when I can have a few squares of dark chocolate instead.

    For when the Chocolate Monster hits I'll get into my stash of Mini M&Ms I bought after Easter clearance.

    I also like the Quest Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough bar.

    Crying is usually my first move. Then I go for a walk. Then I make tea. I then sit down and have a chocolate biscuit - if I ate actual cadbury dairy milk I think I'd be in trouble, at least for now! I will allow it more as my cravings come less often/insistantly!

    It's my most effective so far way of having 'just a little'. I need to wait a while before I actually have that 'little bit' or else little becomes a lot!
