I was given one....never looked it up and then popped it in my mouth!
I've been pretty on target and successful with CICO so I felt okay about it. About 20 minutes ago I started feeling crappy and sluggish......what a learning moment! To top it off it was 77 cal flushed down the toilet!

    Can you believe my partner regularly buys the 125g bags of these and eats the whole thing as a snack? Luckily he has a very high calorie burn!

    I haven't seen them in (any) of mine yet... Now I'm on a mission! I loooove gingerbread.
    (I also don't go to the city often where a lindt shop is, so now I have to check that out too - eta, apparently it only opened in August so I'm not that far behind) :D

    I love Lindt chocolate in bar form but not super fond of the balls. They just sit in my cantina all year :(

    There's a bunch of them popping up in DFOs and Harbour Towns as well, if you have one close ;)

    I saw the Gingerbread ones on a display near the checkouts, haven't bought them yet but I'm crumbling!

    One small piece of chocolate should not make you feel crappy and sluggish. Maybe you are just coming down with something. Did you enjoy eating it? Then I'm not sure how that's 77 cals flushed down the toilet.

    Nope it was not worth it for the reaction of "yuck" afterwards. I am not a huge chocolate fan anyways....But.....set fruity, gummy as well as sour candys in front of me and I'm a gonner!
    I have just felt so good not eating high sugar items.

    I'm a massive sucker for fruity, gummy candy too. And it always makes me feel like crap, because I always overeat on it, but I just keep going back.

    Oh Lindor chocolates = endorphins, sertonin, dompamine & happy dancing. I can not imagine one making me feel bad. Having said that, I look the other way when I pass them in the supermarket.

    My store has the big bags of them on sale this weekend. I may have to buy a couple thanks to this thread.
