    I have gestational diabetes and not being able to have chocolate is driving me nuts! I didn't eat that much, a freddo or few squares now and then, but I'm packing a seriously big block of Cadbury in my hospital bag! I'm coeliac too so I really only have plain cadbury. Lollies used to be my weakness but since there are very few good gluten free lollies, I moved on to chocolate. I have to say I'm quite happy with that decision

    We can make a family block go two nights. Basically though, we try to not have it in the house too much, except for my emergency stash of Lindt

    My DF is definitely a chocoholic. We can't keep any in the house. In saying that I have a new treat for me and that is frozen mars bars O.M.G soooooooooooo scrummy and they last longer cause they are so hard to eat

    if there's a block of chocolate or a packet of chocolate biscuits in the fridge they're safe - i won't touch them - until DH opens them - then i notice every time i open the fridge!! There are four blocks in the fridge that have been there since before christmas and they're still unopened - but once they get opened i'll eat them

    two blocks were there to make peppermint bark over christmas but i got sick so didn't do it... hmmmm i guess i could make it now - we still have the candy canes... mmmm nom nom nom

    I love choc, we generally have some in fridge at all times, generally I am ok but sometimes once I start I need to finish it. Other times a few squares or 1 or 2 tim tams is enough.

    If I am being a total pig, I can eat a block in a day easily! That is why I do not buy large blocks - I have self control issues!

    DH is worse than I am - blink and it's gone!

    I'm more of a lolly and cakes person, but put Haighs, Lindt or Koko Black in front of me and I'm yours

    Never used to eat much of them. Developed cravings for dark choc ice cream when pregnant. Haven't managed to shrug that craving off. In fact it's gotten worse. With Xmas & all there seemed to be lots of choc at home. Aargh! ;-)

    I used to eat about 1-2 chocolate bars or 1/2 a block of chocolate a day.

    Now I don't eat sugar so I eat 1 or 2 small honey sweetened chocolate patties and usually one homemade honey-sweetened chocolate brownie per day.

    I love chocolate!!

    ICED COFFEE! The Farmers Union one. OH. MY. GOD. I have been drinking soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much of that since having Miss Z! seriously, at least a glass if not 2 a day :|

    I have stopped this week. I swear.
    Right here Nikky - I always have 2L of Farmers Union One in the fridge now that I'm home all day, and I have a glass with breakfast, as I'm not much of a hot coffee person so I drink FUIC in place of it!

    With Farmers Union and Haighs, Adelaide is an awesome, but dangerous place for a sweet tooth like me to live

    Also, check out Malteaser (MaltEaster!) bunnies. Soo good, small bunny with a creamy malteaser filling...*drools*
