Many believe chocolate and dieting are incompatible, but this is not necessarily the case. Weight loss is achieved by creating a calorie deficit, which means that you eat fewer calories than you burn over an extended period of time. This is not a short-term solution, but a long-term commitment that needs to be maintained for weeks, months, or even years to achieve sustainable results. I ate at least one bar of dark chocolate, weighing between 75g and 150g, every day for eight days while maintaining a calorie deficit.
