Quest bars and the occasional Bryers low carb/sugar fudge sickle sp??..thus far, not been a "slippery-slope" for me.

Really, I would choose artisan breads over sweets any day. Do I indulge? Nope, I do not trust myself.

85% dark chocolate. I take a square brake into 4 smaller pieces and make sure it slowly dissolves in my mouth...

Or make avocado chocolate mousse.. .

There is also a 90% dark chocolate--I can't remember if it is Lindt or Ghiradeli brand. Really a nice fix. :-)

I flipped love chocolate! Always been my weakness. I have chocolate protein drinks everyday. When I get to goal I intend to have a tiny bit of candy once in a while.

Thanks for the post.

I really love this stuff called Crio Bru. It is ground, roasted cocoa beans. You brew them like coffee, preferably in a French press. Then you add a little unsweetened soy milk, or Fairlife milk, and/or a little coconut milk(like you would add a creamer to coffee). Hot, or warm, or chilled. Feels very indulgent.

You can buy it on Amazon. I like the "Cavalla" version:
