i am preggo right now, so i eat chocolate on a daily basis. seriously. and yet, i CANT for the life of me figure out how i am gaining weight soooo fast. lol. but really though, i eat some form of chocolate at least once a day, and after im done, i think of how horrible the after affects to my body are going to be. then i tell myself that i will stop, but yet, i cant help myself. BUT i dont eat a ton of it in one shot, i know this much sugar isnt good for baby, so i just have a small amount each day. my motto is that there is no such thing as too much chocolate. i can indulge in a tripple layer chocolate cake, with chocolate chips in it, and a side of chocolate ice creme.....and still want more.

I agree with your motto ~ you cannot eat enough chocolate. I am also pregnant and it is my favorite food. I think as long as you are taking your vitamins and are still eating healthy foods, your baby should be just fine. I am not the model pregnant mom because I eat junk foods and smoke, so I am not one to talk. Enjoy your chocolate, I know I will!

I take everything in stride. I don't really like chocolate that much, actually.
Diabetes runs on both sides of my family, so I'm very careful. Also heart disease, high blood pressure, etc. So when I was pregnant, I was very careful not to eat the "wrong" foods.
I'm glad that you're limiting your intake of chocolate. That's good for you & good for the baby. And once you have the baby, you can enjoy a little more.
Congratulations, Mommy-2-Be! :)

yes, i admit, i feel guilty everytiem i eat lots of chocolates in just one sitting especially when i see myself in front of the mirror and witnessed how fat i am. i have a slow metabolism and it's not so easy or me to have good exercise because of my physical disability. but i just love chocolates but can't help feeling guilty abusing its consumpton.

i won't feel guilty after eating too much chocolate 'coz i really can eat a whole bar of any black or white chocolates specially with peanuts or almonds ,or walnuts and raisins :) as long as i will drink water and brush my teeth afterwards so i won't worry for anything else .

Yes, always. I love chocolate so much and I'm trying to cut down on my calories but it's really hard specially when I feel like I'm nearing my period because that's the time when I'm always craving for chocolate. But what I do to lessen the guilt is I exercise a little so that it would somehow even things out
