    If you cant eat in moderation, then you can fit some into your calorie allowance. Eat chcolate just eat less.

    There are plenty of threads where people suggest different chocolate options that have lower calories or tips like moving to dark chocolate and keeping it in the fridge (use the search function). You can always do a bit of extra cardio to earn some extra calories and use it as eatback. An average chocolate bar is 250 calories and a bag of chips from 95 up to 240.

    Cutting it out compeletely can often lead people to binge. Chocolate and crisps yes please, every day for me.

    I'm from UK. For me - ITSU dark chocolate rice cakes and Kinder chocolate with cereals bars - these are the chocolate treats I'm having when I crave chocolate. It helps to know that I can have 1 or 2 if I really want and this won't cost me an entire meal :)

    If you're in the states try finding a grocery store near you that sells Halo Top chocolate ice cream- it's low cal and it's amazing! When I crave chocolate I eat this and it curbs it for not too many calories out of my day! :)

    Chocolate is my let down every time, food I can handle, am mostly eating salads and slim shake....but I can't stop snacking at work on chocolate and biscuits etc. genuinely has anone managed to get over this hurdle and can give me advice other than will power which I lack!

    I've lost 34 lbs easy while still indulging in chocolate almost every single day. The only difference between now and before is now I eat a few pieces instead of eating an entire pack well over 1000 calories lol. I find that letting myself have a few pieces keeps me away from huge binges which I've had a tendency at doing when I felt deprived. Now I also allow myself to have a bigger cheat meal after a week or two of being good and I allow myself to eat what I desire as long as I stay under 2200 calories (which is maintenance for me) and it has worked wonders for me. I look forward to those days. Hope this helps!

    The unhealthy way to do it: eat nothing but chocolate for a day or two. Literally nothing else. You even lose weight despite the calories but you feel sicker than fasting. You will not want chocolate after that.

    Otherwise: unsweetened cocoa powder, salt, stevia, almond milk and hot water make super low-calorie hot chocolate. :3

    Not sure how helpful this will be for you... but it works for me. I have the world's biggest sweet tooth. I could literally replace all of my meals with sweets. One day I decided to put some of that crystal light stuff (the squirt kind) that you put into water, in boiling water. It's so good! It's much sweeter than tea, so you get your sweet fix. I love it and have it ever night!

    Try Popsicle brand fudgecicles. They're only 40 calories and just yum! I eat chocolate daily. I think I go into some kind of withdrawal if I don't have it every few hours. LOL I add 1/2 tablespoon of Hershey's baking chocolate into my chocolate protein smoothie for lunch, then mix in some dark chocolate cashew milk (when I can find it). It's still not enough. I even have a chocolate topping I put on my popcorn that has next to no calories so I don't even log it.

    I also just add unsweetened cocoa powder to like...everything. I just ate it on my berries.

    Love it! I too like cocoa with yogurt and berries. It’s yum, and has fat which is great. There’s nothing wrong with chocolate, and I agree that dark chocolate is a great option. It’s satisfying and helps toward my fat macro, so I see nothing wrong with it.
