Someone give me permission to eat this

nickicaps · 04-10-2012, 04:40 PM

I know it's part of the programming from diets past but I still cannot accept that on my first UD I can eat chocolate. I tried to be very healthy today (green smoothie, fresh veggie juice, tempeh on whole wheat) but now dinner is here and I really want chocolate but I am afraid I will sabotage my efforts.

Someone give me the green light!!

KeirasMom · 04-10-2012, 04:42 PM

Chocolate has proven health benefits, so go ahead. Just factor it into your calories, and if you're coming from low carb, expect a little water weight, but don't feel bad at all.

piratejenny · 04-10-2012, 04:42 PM

You can so totally eat some chocolate!!!!!!!!!

Jbinme · 04-10-2012, 04:44 PM

No worries! Enjoy some chocolate!!

AsmallerME · 04-10-2012, 04:48 PM

Eat it. I'm low carb and still eat lots of chocolate. It's a requirement.

sophiethecat · 04-10-2012, 04:53 PM

Eat and enjoy your chocolate.

Just figure it into your calorie allotment and enjoy every last little bit of chocolatey goodness.

nickicaps · 04-10-2012, 04:55 PM

I love you all, I really do :-)

I am totally staying within my UD limits but I want to appreciate the freedom this diet gives by allowing "forbidden" foods and such. Or else what's the point right? But you know how it is- years and years of assigning "BAD" labels to some foods cause this kind of internal conflict. And I hate that! I want to heal and balance my mind along with my body. Thanks girls!

DD80 · 04-10-2012, 05:27 PM

Eat it!

I've eaten on DDs too...

don't tell anyone...ok?

Beeb · 04-10-2012, 06:02 PM

EAT IT AND ENJOY IT!!

babykinz · 04-10-2012, 08:17 PM

Looks like you have our permission, ENJOY!

mykidsteacher · 04-10-2012, 08:33 PM

Chocolate = GOOD. Eat it and enjoy!

gotsomeold · 04-11-2012, 01:45 AM

Ya know, I think it would be a good thing if everyone who is not allergic or otherwise endangered would 'eat the chocolate' sometime while JUDDDing.

Realizing the rubber ball of weight really does bounce up and down as it moves towards the bottom of the stairs gives such a peaceful feeling of being in control.

I hope you enjoyed every wonderful, melt-in-mouth, blissful bite!

annieS · 04-11-2012, 01:52 AM

enjoy chocolate, enjoy pizza, enjoy life, you're JUDDDing

Dottie · 04-11-2012, 04:21 AM

The sacrifices we make

sungoddess · 04-11-2012, 09:10 AM

Every up day I enjoy two squares of dark chocolate with almonds and sea salt along with a glass of wine. I lose weight!

Enjoy it.

nickicaps · 04-11-2012, 09:14 AM

I really can't wait until I have the first month is under my belt bc I am admittedly a skeptic- not of JUDDD but lately I feel like my own body is betraying me and that NOTHING will work.

In any event, the chocolate was amazing!

Kissa · 04-11-2012, 10:28 AM

I recommend Dark Chilli Chocolate, it is delicious and it doesn't hang around long.

Eat woman!

vilanteira · 04-11-2012, 10:35 AM

Absolutely, eat the chocolate!

Since adding back chocolate into my life, I've been a much saner and happier person. I usually go for the really dark chocolate since that's what I prefer in terms of taste.

I tried this one for the first time last Saturday, and it is the BEST chocolate I have ever had, the sweet chocolate with the sea salt is amazing! I eat 3 squares on UD and savor every mouth watering bite

What brand is this?

Kissa · 04-11-2012, 03:01 PM

I love salted dark chocolate, but not as much as chilli chocolate.

I am ending my UD with some right now.

And that dark chocolate *Chocolove* thing with the coffee nibs in it? Aye Yi Yi Yi YI!!!!

Kissa · 04-11-2012, 03:39 PM

Mmmmmm, yes.

lisamt · 04-11-2012, 05:54 PM

Chocolove dark chocolate almond & sea salt is my favorite! I also like their cherries & almond dark chocolate.

vilanteira · 04-11-2012, 07:18 PM

I have got to try this chili dark chocolate I keep hearing about! It sounds so intriguing.
