My Matured Sweet Tooth

I have a sweet tooth. I know big confession for an overweight gal like me. When I started this journey I cut out all deserts and sweets of any sorts. It was rough, but had to be done in order to see any results. Well, that was 8 months ago and I have come a long way. I still have the sweet tooth but it has changed, it only needs a little bit of sweet to be satisfied and this is what works best:



Notice, it is Dark Chocolate this is significant for me because my whole life I am despised dark chocolate - even in chocolate chip cookies I preferred less chocolate chips because they just weren't sweet enough for me. I have come a long way. After lunch and dinner when my sweet tooth kicks in (because it ALWAYS does) I break of one square (only 36 calories) and amazingly enough my sweet tooth is satisfied. I feel like this is a sign that I am becoming a grown up (or at least my taste buds are...) I am not even sure how much I would like milk chocolate at this point - it might be too sweet (crazy!). I found this chocolate in my Moms pantry when I was so desperate for something sweet I gave it a try, but if you can't locate them in your own Moms pantry, they can be found a Trader Joe's and if your sweet tooth is ready for it, this is the Dark Chocolate to try.
