How much of a chocoholic are you?

I love chocolates, but not extremely so. I know there are some who are truly passionate. I do remember eating multiple giant bars of Lindt chocolates in one day and then getting a horrible migraine that night (weird - scenes from a Baywatch rerun I'd seen the day before kept on flashing through my mind as I suffered from a splitting headache). That's probably the most extreme I've been with chocolates, but there are various ways to get a chocolate high (http://www.bukisa.com/articles/314351_achieving-the-ultimate-chocolate-experience). What about you?

I also love chocolates! I can definitely eat a lot in just one seating but I limit my intake because I tend to get fat easily. LOL. L love eating anything and everything from reese's to m&m's to ferreros! Anything! But I am not really a chocoholic because I do not like eating chocolate-flavored ice cream. I just find it yucky. Weird, huh?

That's funny because I don't like chocolate ice cream either. Give me chocolate bars and cake and other sweets but I can't stand chocolate ice cream. lol.

Am I a chocoholic?. During my younger years i always eat chocolates, i always have chocolates on my hand, when playing with friends and during study periods, its an energy booster for me. I love anything with chocolates, from choco bars, nips, ice cream and chocolate cakes, chocolate frosting is the first cake frosting that i learned and mastered the most. When i was in highschool i even sell chocolate candies and chips to my classmates. I always have chocolates on my bags, i always have craving for chocolates. But just two years ago i was diagnose of type 2 diabetes, that's when my family prevented me from eating chocolates or anything that have high sugar content. I can't stop my craving for chocolates, when i feel bored and sleepy in the office, i will get a bar of chocolates and take some bites just to regain my energy. I know its not good for my health... Am I chocoholic?

I understand the craving, but take care of yourself, okay? Diabetes is not something you can mess with. :) Thanks, btw, to everyone who participated in this discussion. I really enjoyed reading the replies. :)

Though i do not eat much of the chocolates daily, but i love to have swiss dark chocolates very much. If ever i feel like having something sweet i tend to get dark chocolates as these are not too sweeter and has the exact taste of a chocolate has in real. i love roasted almonds in the dark chocolate too.

I like chocolates but I don't eat them regularly. Well... if you don't include them for flavors in ice cream, pastries and drink. I don't eat them even if its already in front of me. It's only when I crave for them that I eat a lot. ;)

I am one of the world's biggest chocolholics. I enjoy this guilty pleasure whenever i can. Chocolate is my comfort food, I wouldn't want to be without it. When life is stressing me out, i need a Hershey bar to bring me back.

Everything with chocolate is absolutely divine. From milk chocolates, to dark and bitter, the choices are endless. I'm not a 100% chocoholic, but I do indulge in them from time to time. I don't blame those die-hard chocoholics, as chocolates are wuite addictive. :)

Hmmm ... i think i am a chocoholic. I could eat chocolate every day, in big amounts. I like to eat chocolate when i watch a movie, or when i listen some music, when i read. But when i am depressed i eat alot of chocolate, it makes me calm down, and it gives me energy.

May i call myself a "seasonal chocoholic"? LOLZ.... i don't always eat chocolates because once i start it's like i'm being addicted to it and i just want to eat chocolates everyday! ^.^ I like the dark ones specially for their antioxidant effect (http://www.livestrong.com/article/5966-need-antioxidants-dark-chocolate). It's my best friend when i'm very stressed at work.

I love chocolates but I'm not a chocoholic. I can resist eating them especially now that I'm on a diet. There are times when I feel a craving though. I always give in and just jog longer than I usually do.

I absolutely adore Chocolate. I can't really afford to splurge on candy so I don't get to have anything chocolate in excess (the drawback of being a poor college student) so whenever I do get to enjoy some nice chocolate, it's like absolute heaven. I actually got to have a Charleston Chew monday which was the first time I had had anything with chocolate for a long time so it was amazing.

I have always liked chocolate. Mostly milk chocolate. I believe it's the silky smoothness of the chocolate itself. I remember my mom buying the Hersheys nuggets that had milk chocolate and toffee. They were so delicious that I used to sneak into her room while she was at work and steal some. So to answer your question, I would say I am a moderate chocoholic.
