chocoholic..

How do I stop eating chocolate all the time?! I have to stop before I gain too much weight! I crave it non stop. I send dh to get me reeses from the gas station lol I end up eating most of my sons candy when he has some ..its awful. How can I kick these cravings?

Just say no. Have self control.

I try, doesn't work. I feel like an addict. If its in my house I eat it. I don't go and eat like a huge bag or anything I just have to have some everyday, if not then I will have a little glass of chocolate milk or something sweet.

Don't know what to tell you. Sucks you don't have self control.

Yes it sure does

Don't quit cold turkey it makes it really hard... slowly but surely cut out sweets... try one day without a week (and only little bits on the days you do have it...) I had the same issue cuz I craved sweets when I was pregnant and the cravings kept up after I had DS... but now I have 1 sugar day a week (but I also eat sweets on holidays and birthdays so that I'm not torturing myself) but I don't go crazy... I'll just have a brownie or a bar of chocolate.   Try eating natural sugars more when you're craving chocolate... that helped me a ton! I love chocolate covered strawberries so having regular strawberries helped with my sugar cravings   hope that helps  

Switch to plain dark chocolate.

It works   or at least it did for me... I've been going 1 1/2 months with just 1 sugar day a week (sundays... so today is an awesome day lol) and holidays... although DH was a sweetheart and only got me flowers (and a cute outfit I wanted) for valentine's day since I didn't want to have just a few chocolates from a heart and have it jut hanging over my head for a few days
