    A spoonful of chocolate ice cream.

    Then WALK AWAY FROM THE REFRIGERATOR.

    I'm not into deprivation. There's not that many calories in it.

    From what im told...you dont have to cut it out... just have to limit it... down to a size that will just satisfy your taste buds... and im pretty sure a glass of water will ease the hunger pain :)

    i eat about 10-12 chocolate chips (dark chocolate preferred) with about 5-7 dry roasted unsalted almonds. tastes like indulgent trail mix! you get your chocolate fix, healthy fat, and even some protein. boom! problem solved!

    I usually have a square of dark chocolate with some peanut butter on top. Keeps me from Reese's king size packs and the one little square tastes better anyway. Always satisfies my chocolate cravings and it allows me to focus on other things. XD

    Chocolate Shakeology gets me over my chocolate and ice cream cravings and gives me super foods, amino acids, protein and a full day's worth of veggies, stamina, energy and is all natural and no refined sugar. And a square of dark chocolate (at least 60% cacao) per day...

    *good* chocolate curbs a craving in a much smaller portion that cheap hershey's chocolate. That's my suggestion, however, I'm not actually into most chocolates so my cravings are few and far between and never very strong.

    ummmmm i usually use chocolate to get over my chocolate cravings, lol!
    but those 100cal chocolate covered Thinsations packs are really f'n good. still have sugar, but whever, cant have everything, lol. and if i opened a bag of chocolate chips or anything else id be sitting till the bag was gone, or id close it up and walk back 10min late, open it and eat more, put it back *repeat. portion controll is not my thing. if i give myself a little bit, i end up taking alot. cant even bake in this house anymore.

    these are good, but extremely carb heavy!

    Endangered Species dark chocolate with cacao nibs! :)

    If you treat yourself to some real, good chocolate sometimes, the cravings shouldn't be as bad.

    I am loving these responses. I am not a chocoholic by any means, but when that craving hits I usually eat a few squares of Dove Dark Chocolate. So yummy! I like the ones with Almond too!!! I also like these Dark Chocolate Cocoa-powder covered almonds. I think the brand is Emerald? They hit the spot too!

    Dark chocolate covered cherries. So sweet you don't need a lot of them. I like a really good quality dark chocolate because the better the flavor, the less you crave. It hits the spot faster I guess. Ghiradelli's peppermint bark is a favorite too.

    Maybe a few chocolate chips? 30 pieces are usually 70 calories. That helps me when I crave chocolate. Or Luna bars, like the chocolate coconut one. It's so chocolatey that it makes me not want to have chocolate for the rest of the day! c:

    I understand about LOVING chocolate because I am right there with you, but my eating habits have got to be sustainable. I will never cut chocolate out of my diet, it just wouldn't work for me. If you know you can have a little bit of chocolate every day, maybe you won't feel the need to eat lots of it, just look forward to having more tomorrow. :) Works for me (most days!).

    I eat a square of Trader Joe's 72% Swiss Chocolate. It is vegan and only 60 calories per square. Another great option is Wax Orchards Fat Free Fudge Sauce. Vegan, only 45 calories per tablespoon, and fruit sweetened. It is so intense, you don't need any more than that. Good luck!!

    If I want chocolate I'll just have a small handful of chocolate chips or a square of good dark chocolate.
