Hi Humminbird,
Are you taking any supplements? I found L-Glutamine to be enormously helpful in preventing cravings for chocolate and other sweet things. 500 mg ½ hour before meals, as suggested by Dr Atkins.
It's just a matter of breaking the cycle. Some folk find they cope by eating artificially sweetened chocolate, but IMNSHO that is just perpetuating the cycle. The best time to eat the AS chocs are when you no longer NEED them, but just feel like a tasy snack. Make sense?
Cheers.
