    Or try a smoothie with cocoa powder in it. I really like an ice/skim milk/honey/PBfit/banana/cocoa powder smoothie. Totally quashes my cravings, and is filling besides. AND I REALLY LOVE ME SOME CHOCOLATE. :smiley:

    I agree with all of the above suggestions. Also, if you find that you crave chocolate, maybe look and see if you need to take Magnesium supplements! I was deficient in Mg and since taking Mg supplements I basically never ever crave chocolate anymore, so I eat a lot less of it :)

    As VictoryGarden commented "...try(ing) a smoothie with cocoa powder..."

    I buy a dark cocoa powder (Hersey's) - only10 calories/tbsp. I've put it in my coffee, yogurt, protein powder or oatmeal...a sprinkle of Stevia and my chocolate craving is met.

    I eat chocolate every day. No guilt. 80 pounds down. I just weigh and log everything and try to eat in moderation.

    Try this it is as good and is much better for You, will fix your craving and still be healthy


    Homemade chocolate

    1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp cacao or cocoa powder

    4 tbsp unrefined coconut oil, melted

    vanilla stevia drops to taste (If you'd prefer to use a liquid sweetener, such as agave or pure maple syrup, use this ratio instead: 1/4 cup cocoa powder, 1/4 cup coconut oil, 3 tbsp of your liquid sweetener.)

    optional extracts, cocoa nibs, or other add-ins

    optional 1 extra tbsp oil or water, if it needs to be thinner


    Take a look at this

    I eat ghiradeli 60% dark chocolate chips. 16 (big) chips is 80 calories. Sometimes I put them in my oatmeal in the morning with sliced banana and other times I just eat them plain. Just gotta be careful to not have to many servings at once...

    I keep around a giant bag of Hershey's kisses, and I eat four of them at the end of every day as dessert. I could never live without my chocolate fix. Lol
