The Chocolate Diet - Part Two

Disclosure: I have been provided with product for a review.All opinions are 100% my own.

I have just started on my third week of chocolately, dieting goodness.   I am surprised that:

• I am not at all sick of chocolate yet and it just proves to me, that I probably would never be sick of chocolate.
• The shakes do actually fill you up.
• It does appear to be working.
• It tastes good.

I have lost 2 kilos to date and I am finding it easy to stick to. I know that I would be losing more weight if I was to include some form of exercise in my day, like walking or getting on the exercise bike.  But I do hope to start doing a little bit of exercise, every morning in the following week. So we will see how I go. 

I have found that if I have the sachet in some low fat milk for breakfast, it will satisfy me right up until lunchtime. Then I mix it with water for my lunchtime drink. I found it is does taste good either way. But yes, I do prefer it with milk. If you shake it vigorously for a minute or two, it gets a lot thicker, yummier and fills you up more!It is satisfying my craving for chocolate. Usually when I crave chocolate, I will buy a large block, and then I tend to over indulge. But I am just loving my little block of chocolate as my after dinner treat every night. It is satisfying me.

I'd love to share just one of the delicious recipes that are in the meal plan with you.

This is the Roasted Sweet Potato, Zucchini and Feta Frittata Squares.
