Choc consumption - am I normal

or just a huge piggy with uncontrollable urges?

DH thinks I eat too much . He is one of these people who can eat several pieces in a sitting & leave it at that. Of course, the chocolate sits in the fridge staring at me all day. DH's answer is to divide the block in half but this means I eat mine in a day & he takes aaaaages to consume his half, all the while it's staring at me each time I open the fridge. I must get round to informing DH that his latest idea has failed dismally as I have just eaten the rest of his half. Oooops.

Some days I feel like I really NEED to eat chocolate & if there's none in the house I have been known to resort to eating the cooking choc melts . They're a pretty poor substitute though but when your addiction rears its head you do what you have to do to try & satisfy it!

So, my name is Sally & I am a chocolate addict. But it could be worse, way worse right?!! Please someone just tell me I'm not alone.

I used to be like that sally! But i just stopped buying it, and after a week i stopped wanting it. Now i get HUGE toothaches when i eat it so thats my punishment lol..

I'm totally the same...........espcially with the choc melts!!!

DH is always saying "we must have a mouse........it's been at the biscuits or choc or basically anything sweet!

Another chocolate addict here to! Has to be my fav food. Have tried to cut back though, due to bfeeding. Not that keen on choc biccies, just chocolate bars...yum!!

Gosh I am glad I am not the only one!!! I have absolutely NO willpower. If I have a bag of lollies I eat the the whole thing in one sitting even if I feel sick I still have to eat the whole bag. Same with biscuits- I will eat the whole packet. Not really a huge fan of chocolate so at least that is one thing I dont binge on.

Choc buttons here too! Dh ann I are as bad as each other,... but I think he may even be worse than me cos I hardly ate any choc while preg, and almost none while bf but DH craved it all the time! It never lasts past the day its brought in our house!

Um HUGE Choc addict here! It can't be in my house as I will eat it that day.

Sounds weird but if you are craving it that much maybe you should have your iron levels checked!
I was anemic and craved it like you!

I love dark chocolate! Dark chocolate and red wine. Mmmmm!!

They are both extremely good for you (dark choc's full of iron and red wine's full of antioxidents) so I feel totally justified and I ignore the fact that I can't shift my belly weight.

Oh, and let's not forget about lollies.....

Normally I am the same and eat chocolate whenever wherever, but with this pregnancy I can't stand it (well up until last week when I had to make chocolate brownies just because!!)

Still am only eating little bits though, last time round I could have eaten it all day and had a girl, maybe this ones a boy!!

Hi, I'm Felicity and I have a chocolate, lollies, icecream and chips addiction.

I blame the baby. Until a month ago, I didn't have a sweet tooth. Now, heaven help anything that has sugar - I'm in and I don't stop eating till it's gone. DH can't stop laughing cos it's so not me. Hopefully the cravings will go away (or I'll develop self control).
