I've got two chocolate oranges in the fridge that I bought at £1 each before Christmas. My problem is not so much craving them as not being able to stop if I have 'just a couple of segments' 😱 😉

That's exactly what my problem is,it's all or nothing.
 
I have a small bar of chocolate that they gave us at the end of the x-pert sessions and so far I have held off having it. I am diet only but I had a bladder disease that if I do anything I shouldn't then the sugar affects my bladder badly so this keeps me behaving. I didn't realise it would react so quickly and was naughty 3 weeks ago with takeaways but I paid for it and it took 2 weeks to stop my bladder niggling about it so keeps my cravings as cravings. I do having ice lollies thought as dietician checked them out for me and said I could so they seem to be my naughty craving at the moment.

Couldn't help but respond to your post 🙂
Yes yes yes - cravings all the way !!
Chocolate !! I buy Lindt or sainsburys taste the difference and have two squares after dinner, ok and sometimes after lunch as well. It works well because the carb content isn't too bad and you get that chocolate fix. Also have some cookies and cream Haagen Daaz in the freezer .....
 
O-o-o-o-o-o-h! Horrible people talking about chocolate and sweeties and treats and.... I HATE YOU! I was being good and the little demon on my shoulder was getting seriously annoyed while my good angel was preening his feathers, and then you had to go and mention chocolate. Now the angel is moulting and the demon has a big cheesy grin.

There's a bar of Green and Blacks in the fridge...
 
Pete and Northy put the chocolate oranges out of their misery and eat them, you have insulin use it 😱
 
Apologies to all I've given chocolate cravings to today - 8 digestives later and I feel a little sick to be honest!!!

Guess that's my punishment - on the plus side i've managed the insulin well and not gone about 8! :D:D:D
 
Ooh I'm terrible, love chocolate and biscuits and cake! I do try to be good though but I also have some plain chocolate on hand for regular fixes, I love Green and Blacks 70% dark chocolate with lemon.
 
Mmmmmmmm I could murder a M&S plain chocolate and ginger about now...
 
This is a naughty thread! I try not to buy choc digestives too often because they don't ever go back in the cupboard.... 😉
 
I love digestive biscuits spread with some butter and a piece of cheese :drool: I'm just so pleased the gluten free digestives are scrummy 🙂

If anyone has a B and M store nearby, heads up, I bought a 1kg bag of peanut M&Ms for £4.99:D
 
My DSN'd put you all over her knee and smack your bottoms! Had a mini choc brownie this morning - needed it to teach grammar. It's amazing how much glucose English grammar requires...🙄
