Weird you ask that - was just saying yesterday I rarely used to eat it but now most days and every week
edited to add I think with the cost of a single bar being so horrific now, we buy more share bags/ large bars

50-100g most days. I like chocolate a lot and eat it instead of biscuits or dessert. OK, sometimes I eat chocolate as well as dessert. It's usually in the form of bars of middling quality milk chocolate. I do endurance sports, so I've got the calories to play with.

A lot less than I used to tbh purely because more and more chocolate bars are tasting like crap.

This is true, sadly. I do love Green and Blacks and Montezumas. Tony Chocoloney is awful, though.

Every day.

Cadbury you are only getting 20% cocoa! Cheap chocolate is false economy.

Every day. Sometimes more than once. Whats the AIBU?

Every day
I have half a bar of Lindt Les grandes hazelnut

pinkmags · 17/04/2024 07:32

Twice a day - after lunch and after dinner!

@GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing Whats that like? I do like dark chocolate and go to it when I'm trying to eat less sugar but not sure whether I could go very dark!

I eat chocolate most days @Aquarius1234

Yesterday I has a few white chocolate digestives but I'd usually have actual chocolate

same for me. I don't buy it because I can't stop at one square. Easter was the last time for me, and Christmas before then.

Yeah see I eat it several times a day, but got two dark chocolate Easter eggs and I haven’t touched either of them yet because I got three boxes of chocolate for Mother’s Day and another three for my birthday and am still only on the second of those. My Christmas chocolate lasted me until March too. I generally only have to buy myself chocolate from August-December 😆

@Humanunkind
Honestly?
Sheer willpower! If I can do it, anyone can as I was horribly addicted.
Adult dd still eats it the way I used to (family bars in one sitting, whole large Easter eggs etc) I watch her and am genuinely amazed, the way people used to be watching me!

Humanunkind · 17/04/2024 19:26

Thank you @otherwayup - well done! I need to change my habits, that would be a helpful start, I think.

Tisfortired · 17/04/2024 19:28

It was every day until I started my wedding diet in January! Now it’s once a week. Today I had a star bar as I had been dreaming about one for so long and it was heaven. I actually really enjoy chocolate now rather than it being a habit I just eat without thinking.

WildFlowerBees · 17/04/2024 19:34

Before I had Covid in October every day, Sadly it tastes awful now so nothing for almost 7 months. Great for my waistline I've lost a stone in weight 😬

Every evening
