I love chocolate, who doesn't! I keep it out of the house to avoid cramming my face. I recently bought chocolate calcium chews and multivitamins. Any time I need a chocolate fix I eat one. They're only 20 calories each and I know I'm getting healthy benefits from eating them!

I too get chocolate cravings but didn't want to emphasize "never" having chocolate because then thats all I would think about. So I would eat 1-2 of the very small bite size candy bars to staisfy my craving. But I like your idea, so much better.

What are some recommended types? I haven't researched these in years... I used to get the calcium chews, but I am sure now there are so many options available! :-)

Thanks! I have a real problem with this. You not only get the chocolate, but the health benefits from the vitamins... cool! Now I will go get me some! :-)

Sugar Free Hot Chocolate helps me when I need a chocolate fix.
when I get that sudden crave for chocolate I grab a small handfull of semi-sweet chocolate chips, instead of reaching for the chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake, brownies or other high calorie chocolate fix. 1 oz (about 60 chips) has just 132 calories.
