[QUOTE="MrsA2, post: 2373265, member: 521715"] It is possible to include chocolate in a low carb lifestyle. Just as long as it is very dark chocolate. I regularly eat 85% 90% or even 100%, just a square or 2 at a time and usually at the end of my last meal of the day. Granted it took some getting used to, I loved milk chocolate but the thought of no chocolate was too much and over a few weeks I worked my way up the percentage scale. I find the 100% quite difficult to like, but it does kill any craving stone dead. I find the 4g of carbs from 85% cocoa chocolate fits well with in my otherwise very low carb way of eating. I have a tray of homemade millionaires shortbread in the fridge as we speak. One small square is all it takes to satisfy me. LcHF is not about deprivation, it has to be way of eating for life for most of us. You'll be surprised and pleased how much your tastes and cravings change over time [/QUOTE]
