I buy expensive "good" chocolate....not just a regular chocolate bar and break it into pieces and freeze individual servings. It takes longer for frozen chocolate to be eaten so you actually have time to savor it :) currently I use Ritter Sport Dark chocolate with hazel nuts YUM!!!! its the best dark chocolate.

what I do is wear a HRM then I go to a website that has a calculater that takes my age, duration of exercise and average HR and then gives me the calorie burn, If you do not have a HRM, then I would just pick an exercise that is simular in the database :)

you could be intaking too much fiber...if you are intaking more than the recommended amount...I think its 35g your body might be having trouble moving things along....I think in the food traker you can set it so you can see your fiber intake too, :) Hope you feel better!
