    It's my mid day I've eaten good all morning and will eat good all the rest of the day reward.

    What's this chocolate thing you speak of? :laugh: Can't remember the last time I had it. But, if you take away my coffee I'll fight you like an alley cat :grumble:

    Nope,can't do it and don't ask to give up peanut butter either. I mix peanut butter in with my low carb hi protein powder and a little bit of warm water and make a pudding. I call it gruel, beats a nasty shake sometimes.

    I am with you! Chocolate is my weakness. It will be a struggle but I need to try (and succeed).

    I keep a bag of Ghirardelli Dark Sea Salt squares in the frige. Have not had one in about 5 weeks....But can have just one without going nuts on the bag so I know I can do it! And you can also! Good luck!:drinker:

    This will tough, but I'm not going to do it for the effects of pointless calories. I'm going to do it to master my horrible addiction to chocolate. It's almost like crack. I'm in!

    ^^This. My Ice cream cones (with chocolate in the ice cream) is my reward for surviving the day. I would have NO motivation to go on without it....:noway:

    PS: I had half a generously-sized bar of dark chocolate with sea salt and almonds. 150 calories, 200% DV of Holy Crap That Was Worth It

    You mean no chocolate at all. No chocolate milk, shakes, candy, frosting, cake, whipped-cream, cookies, pic, peanut butter, danish, eclairs, etc., etc.?

    Okay, I'm in! This should be pretty easy, since I'm not big on chocolate!

    I understand you want to test yourself, BUT

    They're not pointless calories:
    Higher percent of chocolate (60% and up) are full of powerful antioxidants.
    It's a carb and fat (both good for you).
    Helps to release endorphins (no wonder you feel better after eating it).

    Fail to see the downside~
