Eat chocolate and lose weight!

Eat chocolate and lose weight, yes I said it! Even in the same sentence. Chocolate lovers will be delighted to know that not only can they feast their lips on heavenly chocolate, but they can also lose a few pounds by eating it! I’m starting to think this may be the most delicious diet idea ever!

Chocolate as a healthy food? That goes against everything we’ve been told about dieting and losing weight. But it just so happens that by deliberately choosing the best chocolates, you will not only benefit from weight loss, but also find relief from high cholesterol, heart disease, depression, and much more.

It’s no wonder dark chocolate is healthy for you. Everybody is talking about it. It’s all over the news and I’m sure you’ve seen the stories and read the articles that dark chocolate is really good for you. Dark chocolate has been found to lower blood pressure. Additionally, the antioxidant content of dark chocolate has been found to help in the fight against heart disease. But don’t go looking for that Hershey’s Bar or even a Godiva Bar just yet. The chocolate you buy in stores is loaded with fats, fillers and waxes and while experts say that eating 70% cocoa is best when eaten in moderation… right? No longer.

I don’t know about you, but dieting is really hard for me because when I cut out certain foods for a long period of time, I usually end up eating them and feeling VERY guilty afterwards. Chocolate is especially difficult for me because I love it. I’m sure I’m not alone in my love of chocolate. Did you know that people spend more than $7 billion dollars a year on chocolate? The per capita consumption of chocolate indicates that each person consumes 12 pounds of chocolate each year! wonderful! Now you can benefit from consuming chocolate and not feel guilty one bit.

With new scientific studies showing the ability of dark chocolate and raw cacao to help stabilize blood sugar, it makes sense that the right kind of chocolate could help those looking to lose weight. And that’s just the beginning of what research says about the health benefits of chocolate.

Are you looking to lose some weight and sick of the same old diets and food restrictions? If you could figure out how to eat more chocolate and lose weight at the same time, would you do it? Surprisingly, you can eat chocolate regularly during your weight loss day while increasing your rate of fat loss. That sounds like something I can get attached to!
