My husband bought me one of those that was 100% dark chocolate, no sugar whatsoever, basically baker's chocolate, when I was pregnant and had gestational diabetes and it was valentine's day.
I think I may have growled at him when he asked to try a bite.
I can’t even choke that stuff down it’s so bitter, I’m not much on chocolate anyway but bakers chocolate (even the high quality stuff) isn’t on my list of things I’d consider edible.
Nah, that was a one off, expensive chocolate thing. Now that I don't have a placenta sucking up all my insulin I just eat regular chocolate when I happen to get a craving.
Unfortunately that's not true. Normal milk chocolate from Lindt has 57 calories per 10 gram, 90% cacao chocolate from Lindt has 59 calories per 10 gram.
You know that the healthiness of a food isn’t measured by how many calories there’s in it, right? And that the dark chocolate is healthy-ish because doesn’t spike your insulin as high and doesn’t contain as much sugar? It’s still vain calories, but better than consume milk chocolate, especially if it’s like milka’s with a lot of shit inside.
That's true, calories don't tell you if something is healthy or not. But I was talking from a "losing weight" perspective and most people are doing it by counting calories.
It's just important to remember that just because something is healthy, it won't necessarily help you to loose weight.
Yeah, that’s like fat loss mistakes 101, people think “oh this is healthy, so I’ll eat a lot” then they get fat and confused. I think avocados are one of the biggest stars in this case, they’re highly caloric.

Just buy the good stuff. Lindt has very good/healthy-ish dark chocolate which is super satisfying to eat.
