		<description>I am a total chocoholic! I hate it! I used to be able to stay away from it If I didn&#039;t have any in the house, but if it was there it would&#039;t be for long because I wouldn&#039;t be able to resist eating it! 

But now I&#039;ve gotten to the stage where If I&#039;m craving chocolate I NEED it. nothing else will satisfy me, and if I try to eat anything else I just keep eating and eating till I&#039;m sick because I don&#039;t feel full till I&#039;ve satisfied the urge! It&#039;s frustraiting and depressing, though I&#039;m not sure if I&#039;[m feeling that way because of some kind of withdrawl or because I am not satisfying my craving?

so I buy chocolate (and chocolaty food, like coco pops, chocolate cake, or chocolate spread) to stop myself from over-eating, but when I have it I find it so hard not to just eat it all in one sitting that I keep having to buy more! almost daily! 

My interest in normal food has dwindled to the piont where I have to remind myself to eat. there are many days where I get to ten aclock at night and realise all I&#039;ve had that day was a bowl of coco-pops and a snickers!

I&#039;m a little overwait, not by much, my BMI is slighty high and my dress size is 12-14. My wait remains constant at that leval I don&#039;t really gain or loose any! but my body doesn&#039;t get the nutrients it needs from a chocolate based diet! My health dwindled because of that and so now I&#039;m taking all sorts of food suppliments to counter it! 

So here I am; stable wait, stable health. but unable to kick the chocolate! I wan&#039;t to get help but there doesn&#039;t seem to be support for it the way there is for alcoholism.</description>

		<description>I never ate chocolate much until the age of 12 when I ate it with a group of friends.  We had a king size block each.  I felt so sick yet it was soo nice.  I always crave it now.  So yeah I do agree with this article</description>

		<description>You&#039;re kidding right? Is her &quot;addiction&quot; causing her serious health issues, interfering with her everyday life, having a detrimental impact on family and friends? No? Maybe just leave her to enjoy her choc, then.</description>

		<description>Yeah, I wonder. If it&#039;s there I&#039;ll eat it, but I don&#039;t really seek it out. I know someone who&#039;s cravings for chocolate declined after the menopause, hinting at a hormonal connection, for her, at least.</description>

		<description>That makes sense.  I like chocolate, but wouldn&#039;t call myself a &quot;chocolate lover&quot;.  I can often take or leave the treat.  But my wife cannot.  I wonder at what age we become programmed one way or the other.</description>
