Ok well I had all good intentions of starting to exercise and eat healthier…… but as yet that hasn’t happened. I think I need to go to rehab……seriously. I have a very unhealthy chocolate addiction and I don’t know how to combat it. Theres help out there for alcoholism and eating disorders etc….. but what do you do if you can’t stop eating chocolate. I have managed to cut it down as I really was eating ridiculous amounts of it per day before but I am still paying out way too much money on it each week. Sometimes its like I’m eating it not because I really want it but because I’m being told I want it, if that makes sense? I managed to take about 3 days break from it but then caved in. But before I did that suddenly I noticed some changes….. My tatse buds seemed to of changed. Certain foods and drinks weren’t tasting the same and chocolate wasn’t an enjoyable taste in my mouth anymore and I was just eating it for the sake of it but wasn’t enjoying doing so……
Does anyone else struggle with chocolate and if so how did you combat it, I have tried going cold turkey before and just get all shakey and headachey and pretty crabby for the first 2 or 3 days

I have a chocolate problem too. What has been working for me is to just buy plain chocolate. Like hershey bars. I put them in the freezer so they take longer to eat. I make sure I eat healthy stuff with it, like peanut butter. Another thing that helps me is Hot chocolate. I drink a cup in the evening before bed. If I need to unwind I will add a little Jim Beam in it. Makes me sleep like a baby and curbs my sweet tooth. Good Luck!
