    I think Bubble Yum makes a chocolate-flavored bubble gum.  It's really good and very few calories .. I think maybe 15?  Nips hard candies are also goood.

    Special K makes cereal bars drizziled with chocolate, which I like.  They take the edge off of my chocolate cravings.

    Re: all i want is chocolate

     I still have chocolate. Try getting the single Sugar Free Chocolate Jello Puddings only 60 calories. It helps with that craving and my kids love them !! I have no other ideas on chocolate craving that are low calorie except the 50 calorie Fudge Bars but you get those from Schwans if you have Schwans in your area. Anyone have chocolate ideas? Please let me know too ! Amanda

    Eating an orange every day for 4 days will cut the chocolate cravings.  If you eat any chocolate at all, the cravings will be up and running again.  I find abstinence from chocolate to be the easiest way out of the obsession.  Tampabayb

    Re: all i want is chocolate

    I have the chocolate problem, too! However, I fix it with either Quaker Chewy Granola Bars Low Fat Chocolate Chunk (90 calories and 2 grams of fat) or sometimes for dessert I have a Weight Watcher Smart Ones Brownie A La Mode ( 200 calories 4 grams of fat) which can be found in the freezer section. They are DELICIOUS!

    If you think you can handle it, I often recommend that people keep things like Dove Bites, or Hershey's Kisses around and have two or three when they get a craving.  Sometime totally eliminating something like chocolate (or ice cream, or bread, etc.) leads to a feeling a deprivation (and desparation!) -- and that leads to bingeing.

    Another thing is angel-food cake (no fat) with a drizzle of chocolate syrup -- just to avoid deprivation.

    I also would recommend the South Beach Living 100 calorie snack bars.  The Peanut butter chocolate chip bar is 100 calories and 3g fat.  That's my favorite, but they also make other flavors, including one with just chocolate.  That may be a sweet chocolate fix without too much fat and calories.

    Hi smilegardenia,

    I too, like anything chocolate (pastries too!).  I found at Costco the Special K bars and they come in strawberry, chocolate and vanilla.  I also got those Hershey's chocolate pretzels, the 100 calorie bar/4.5 grams of fat.  They taste pretty good.  if you find anything good out there, let me know.  luvsnacks

    Re: all i want is chocolate

     there are some kashi bars out there that have chocolate in them with coconut and are 120 calories ea and 3.5 grams of fat. if i take small bites i can get about 6 bites out of it. it is so good.

    they do have a pumpkin type one that is very tasty too. I got mine at Target. They have sales on them too. Have one with a glass of water/large and it is so satisfying.

    good luck.

    Re: all i want is chocolate

     What's wrong with chocolate? It happens to have many health benefits, but make sure it has a high percentage of cocoa solids -- eat the real thing and not chocolate impostors! If you need a chocolate 'fix', maybe getting accustomed to darker chocolate would do you wonders, and then you can be satisfied with only a square or two. Whether you take dark or milk, depriving yourself of something you love so much will only make you crave it even more than you wanted it to begin with.

    You can also desensitize yourself to troublesome foods by dealing with them one at a time. To keep it simple, have chocolate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for as long as you want to, and after you figure out that you can have it when you are hungry for it, it will lose its magical power over you. You will see that after a while you will prefer something else over the chocolate, but you will always know that if you wish to have some, it's there for you and you will not deprive yourself of it. 

    Chocolate actually has enough fat so you could have it as a meal, or to add fat grams to a meal according to the Alli guidelines, maybe instead of the old standby peanut butter all the time.

    There is never a legitimate reason to eat when you are not physically hungry or to eat past satisfaction. --Susie Orbach

    Taste everything; finish nothing.

    You keep food from going to waste by putting it on your waist.

    You can't eat now to satisfy a hunger yet to come.

    There is no trying; only doing. There is no becoming; only being.

    Re: all i want is chocolate

     I take a 3 muskateers bar since it is low in fat and slice it into 4 pieces and eat just one section. I also keep the 100 cal snack cakes they have 3 grms fat and have 1 with 1/2 glass of skim milk for a snack. but if you are craving it and dont eat it, you may slip and eat way more than allowed and we dont want that.

    Re: all i want is chocolate

     Fiberone has a excellent snack bar, not only does it have chocolate drizzled on it but there are some other great bonuses with it. Low calorie , low fat , high fiber per bar. Costco has a great deal on them out here in the west and they are very chewy so i get a workout just eating one. They are filling and hit the spot and hold me over until Dinner.  Buy some hershey dark kisses and just dont eat the whole bag. I can make a bag last much longer these days compared to the past.

     I like to have a tablespoon of Special Dark Chocolate Chips right after dinner. Helps my chocolate cravings. I gave it up for Lent and never realized how much I really miss it until now.
