We all think of weight loss food as the really healthy items, lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, a selection of foods high in fiber, a small quantity of fats, some protein and some carbohydrates.  After weeks of eating the same healthy food you may start to resent your diet and start binging on the foods that made you start your diet in the first place.  If you start to feel this way, stop and think about all the hard work that you have done and are about to undo. 

Being on a weight loss program does not mean that you have to miss out on the treats.  When you do notice a change in yourself, reward yourself with a treat. I do not mean go for a large bar of your favorite chocolate or a huge bag of candy.  A little treat every now and then will not do any harm.

Chocolates should be made a luxury in your diet and not a routine. Do not indulge in too many of them. Yes, you can treat yourself to a piece or small bar of chocolate occasionally, but do not get into the habit of settling down in the evening to eat a large slab of your favorite chocolate.  If you can not resist the temptation to binge, do not buy it from the grocery store. If your partner, friends or family normally buy you a box of chocolates as a gift ask them to buy you something else, for example tickets to the cinema, a new dress for when you reach your goal or even a day of pampering.

When you buy your chocolate look at the calorific value on the wrapper, some of the diet chocolate bars are very nice to eat and are low in fat, which is a bonus.  Avoid the cream filled chocolates because although there is less sugar, there is still the cream in them, which is high in calories.
