Our Favorite Guilt-Free Ways to Eat Chocolate
Get Your Fix
Plain Ol' Dark Chocolate
Let's start with what we're all really craving: A hunk of plain chocolate. Diet disaster, right? Wrong. A one-ounce piece of dark chocolate amounts to only 151 calories, and its positive attributes don't stop there.
The flavonoids in chocolate are heart healthy, can lower cholesterol, and can even help prevent certain cancers, such as skin cancer. Dark chocolate is by far the healthiest option, as it contains less sugar and more antioxidants than milk chocolate or white chocolate. Stick to a small one-ounce serving when you really need it, and you can satisfy your next craving guilt-free.

7/7/2011 01:29:24 PM Report Abusedark chocolate doesn't have enough SUGAR to fulfill an urge that chocolate creates. milk chocolate is where the good stuff is... dark chocolate is way too bitter to be considered an acceptable substitute. the guilt free way to enjoying chocolate is no shock... use it in moderation and maybe a few extra sit-ups/squats/laps to your work out routine just to make sure :)
