I eat chocolate frequently... mostly in the form of unsweetened cocoa, about 1 tsp or so every few days (I mix it with ricotta and a splash of brandy and a tiny bit of maple syrup, it is an AWESOME dessert and keeps me from eating a tub of ice cream!) of course, I don't have the girl to prove it yet :) but I'm not worrying about it too much!
Thanks ribbons. I have been going cold turkey from chocolate since January but a really naughty bar found it's way into my mouth earlier.I'm hoping it won't do too much damage.:O
The best of luck ribbons ttc your :DD:xx
You too Irishmom! I am sure you'll be just fine - I understand, chocolate is VERY hard to resist :)
No, it's jsut fine as long as it's part of your day's diet.
The whole, chocolate-sways-blue idea was originally based on the idea that choc. blocks calcium absorption. But that's been debunked, not to mention that we don't evne know for sure whether calcium even sways and if it does, whether it's better to have it absorbed into our bones or floating around free.
My concern about chocolate is that the antioxidants in dark choc. may help boost fertility to some extent so it's best to stick with white chocolate and milk chocolate, rather than the dark stuff.
I did'nt think it was possible to :heart: you anymore than i do already Atomic lol. Thank you for putting my mind at rest. I literally only had a fun size milk chocolate bar.I had a moment of madness and before i realised what i had done it was gone haa! :nyd:

trust me that is nothing, i completley went all out the other weekend, I felt so guilty especially when stealing my dear partners bacon and eggs from his plate, but the smell was just too much and it was just there and once i started i couldnt stop and blew all my levels out the window for the entire weekend on just that one meal im certain .....Kinda got him to make me some, BUT i figured and after much re assurance from the dear Atomic, i know I have enough time to get things back on track before i ttc, one treat here and there wont hurt, although i am on the LE diet i think for some reason the IG diet still is in the back of my mind when it comes to foods, I keep reminding myself No food is out of bounds as long as i keep within my ranges of calories sodium protein etc. But i have cut out meat and fish altogether which has been soooooo hard for me but its only for a short time not forever and if it helps make my dreams come true then it was all worth it!
