Eating Chocolate for Breakfast Is Good for Your Diet

New research from Tel Aviv shows that starting the day with a full meal that includes a sweet dessert contributes to weight loss success.
PROBLEM: Though restrictive diets often result in weight loss, most obese dieters fail to keep the pounds off as soon as their cravings start to overpower their discipline. Can a more forgiving breakfast topped off with sweets help prevent this all-too-common obesity relapse?

 I am liking THIS diet!!

As if we needed an excuse, is it 0530? Time for chocolate and bourbon (where are my fucking cigarettes).

Chocolate has caffeine.
Really you don't have to read further than the name of it, 'The Chocolate Diet' to know it can't be good for you..

Sometimes I eat chocolate ice cream for breakfast- just because I'm a grown up and I can.

Less satiety eating a 300 calorie breakfast than a 600 calorie breakfast with high protein? Shocked. I can only get to the abstract, not the full article but I would like to know more about the composition of the other meals as daily calorie amount was the same between both groups and was a calorie restricted diet (1600 or calories). The chocolate is being given too much credit. Is it the extra carbs, the protein, the larger breakfast? With the two breakfasts drastically different concluding the chocolate is the reason is just sensational journalism. It seems like too many variables were different between the two breakfasts to be able to come to a meaningful conclusion. What happens if the larger breakfast was the same but the sweets were omitted? What if the low carb breakfast contained as many calories or more protein?
I question the study without being able to read the whole thing. The doctor involved has been selling books for years advocating her diet plan and now her own study proves it. I'm a little suspicious.

Who underwrote the research?

And it's research from Tel Aviv, no less. Really gunning for that overweight middle aged midwestern female target market, aren't they?

For me Rhythm...it is a case of "eat what you will" only small portions and [b]FUCKING GET OFF YOU BUTT WOMAN! AND EXERCISE!"
What I got from that piece was that one can eat what one will (depending on availability) it depends on activity.

Hehehe, and what use or value is a woman who doesn't eat what she wants, luxuriate in what she eats, and lounge around, slightly soft, very supple, like a contented cat? I can think of some "activities" that would burn off anything a woman might care to mow down on. 
I say eat all the chocolate you want Kichi, you seem to be doing just fine. Here's a amusing thing to muse over, if a study came out tomorrow that pegged chocolate as the sole perpetrator in all manner of health woes, would you stop eating it? I know I wouldn't, that shit is delicious!
