[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 252672"] Marq...unless your dark chocolate that you have daily is sugar free...you are having sugar daily. Perhaps it is sugar free or has very little sugar in it. Is it just plain dark chocolate/no sugar? They say it has medicinal value...good idea! Your doctor sounds like a great source! I tend to agree with you. I think that many people need to give up sugar (what I call an obvious dessert) altogether so that the insulin doesn't spike and cause cravings. Or at least give it up altogether at first and then add it back using (portion control...of course). Some people, I have found, become too frustrated if they have to give up dessert totally or get too frustrated if they get it in their head that they have to give up sugar completely. They want a little treat. It varies. Some want their tiny treat nightly...some want it just on Saturday (or the weekend) and some want it when there is a special occassion. I like it on the weekends and then if something special comes up...so perhaps twice a week (max). Personally, I have found that knowing I can still lose weight and have a little as a treat on the weekend and during the week if the occassion warrants...is a relief and it also seems more like "real life." It seems more like a life plan. Everyone is different. in my humble opinion, it is wise to know your body. I think it is wise to know where you stand with sugar and alcohol. No doubt..too much of it will hamper weight loss. There isn't much room for leeway, I think. Knowing where you stand is key. I think taking vitamins is very important...I personally like a multi and the B vitamins. (in my humble opinion). And I think anyone who continues to struggle...should get support. It is well worth it. Your informaiton is wonderfull and I am glad you posted the details. I am following a plan that is similar. when I have stress...my weight goes up a bit. I know how to get it back down and quickly take care of it. For the most part, I've been able to stay at my goal weight. :happy: p.s.
