I would sniff all the lovely Easter Eggs in the shops yum. Would you trust yourself to just sniff the choc and not eat it? Or what about some toiletries that smell of choc. You can get those patches that smell of vanilla that are supposed to kerb your cravings, but Ive never tried them.
Good Luck, the first week is the hardest
hi scarlett, honey is a great idea, I love it and have a big jar of Orange Blossom honey in the cupboard :D
hi veggiebear, I honestly think if i sniffed chocolate in the shops I may get arrested for eating and running lol, well done for stopping eating it yourself :D
lol at jo and argggghhhh to the blooming adverts over there >>>
Hi Pixi, when I was dieting, I used to get a pot of natural yoghurt and mix it with a level teaspoon of 'Options' chocolate. You only need a teeny bit and voila - chocolate yoghurt (with mint/orange/whatever flavour Options you're using!). Mmmmmmm.....
I know you're not dieting, but it'll still stop your cravings!! xxx
Paul McKenna has a wonderful technique for completely stopping eating certain foods. He says to imagine the most revolting thing you could possibly ever eat. Imagine the taste, the texture and keep imagining until you feel really sick. Then think of the thing you are trying to give up (choc in your case!).
To be continued............... (because AB is still playing up)

Imagine it tasting like the revolting stuff and keep imagining it until you feel sick again. In time everytime you see chocolate you will feel sick. (In my case I had to think of vomit as my 'revolting' thing, in an effort not to eat cream cakes and I haven't eaten one since.)
However, beware, you might never like chocolate again!!! Is that what you really want Pixi!!! xxxxx
