Feel like I'm going to have to give up chocolate. The amount I'm eating in a week is just daft now. Thing is, I almost feel like an alcoholic in that I don't think I'd have the ability to say "oh, I'll just limit myself to one small bar a day". Plus I'm certain itst the main reason for my podge that I've got coming. Having a podge whilst rock climbing isn't conducive to good climbing. At all.
I think the big thing psychologically is to not look at it as "I'm refusing to eat this" and rather say "I don't need this today". Now my problem is now finding a replacement for chocolate. Nuts? Bit bland. Fruit? Surely the best option, right?

let me aX: what do you get from it? is it the sugar? is it the stimulant/antidepressant drug part of it? is it for hunger or pleasure? there are ways to get chocolate drug without the sugar. e.g. “cacao nibs.” they taste a little sour and smell like olives actually but they’re alright if you can handle, like smoking filterless cigarettes (gitanes, i miss you so...) there’s also chocolate sweetened with sugar alcohols (erythritol, xlytol, maltitol, etc) which helps some but can give you the farts/the shits. there’s also stevia which does not meld weld with every flavor. personally i make a chia pudding with ground cacao (wtf is the difference with cocoa) that can be sweetened with stevia with little harm. the chia + whey provides protein + good fats and the cacao is for drug value. can also be made with erythritol. ![]() |

Honestly now it's just an addiction. I'm just eating it for the sake of eating it. Yesterday I had one of those big bags of revels, the at lunch I had to chocolate bars, then I got home and had a coupla slices of rocky road. Gotta cut that shit out.

Stop smoking weed, it will stop the cravings for munchies
![]() edit: and now the more serious answer: there's supposed to be more "healthy" chocolate, e.g. https://lovechock.com/ I've no idea what this is, only did a quick google for alternatives. They claim they make "Chocolate that honours your body." But that could also be total bullocks There's also carob, which is an alternative for if you're allergic to cacao

Haha! I actually only smoke it when with friends which might be a couple of times a week. This is just eating for the sake of eating. I'm not a big fan of dark chocolate. However, it could sate the craving for white chocolate.

Yeah, it's definitely sugar I'm addicted too. Can't start looking at a 6 pack of doughnuts and saying "yes, this is an absolutely fine replacement to a four pack of wispas". Damn this sugar shit is gonna be a tough nut to crack.
Kevin Smith said that coming off sugar is harder than heroin. Ignoring that he's probably not done heroin he has a point.

I appreciate that but I ain't a chonker. 5'10 and 11½ stone is fine. It's just a paunch on the belly that needs sorting out! Climbing and work keep me generally fit. Thanks though!

This is the austrian president holding up a polar bear plushie. No particular reason for posting this. It's just weirdly adorable taken out of context.
![]() And now for the context, if anyone wants to know: He used the plushie as a visual device to talk about the plight of many species due to the drastic climate change. I look at pictures like that and it's a stark contrast to the re-elected Conservative Party chancellor (the president being a former member of the Green Party, now a left-leaning independent that however does what the austrian president is expected to do - representation, being calm and collected, generally not interfere too much) who's just a neoliberal on steroids who had many disgusting flirtations with the far right. At least those far right fuckers have lost a good amount of votes during the last election, creating the possibility that the government will enter into a coalition with a party that's more, well, sane. So, there's that. No doubt that whoever will take the mantle will also certainly take the fall once another scandal surrounds that wannabe-Gordon Gekko though. Now, with all that heavy context it's still an oddly adorable image. |

Ignoring that our shitty old coal-powered stations are much more likely to collapse under high-workload than the renewable ones. And that we're edging towards, or are past, majority renewable power in several states.
