In Chocolate Paradise



Recommended Posts

This is actually kind of funny. I ordered the 10 lb option of chocolate Paradise energy squares thinking I would get 10 1 lb bags. It was cheaper to order it this way.

Nope!!

They sent me a 10 lb big ol' plastic bag of chocolate energy squares. Literally enough to fill a small wheelbarrow. So here I am with 10 lbs of mana sitting in front of me in an open bag and I was grabbing big handfuls of it, laughing manically like I won the lottery, letting them fall through my fingers.

Now I know you guys are salivating now. :)

It truly was a massive amount of energy squares!! I ended up stocking them away into some old Protein Powder containers and a couple freezer gallon bags. I am guilty of sampling the goods a little too much ( no worries though cross fit in an hour) :( I bought these as Snacks for before my fitness activities, 2 squares at a time. Probably won't be ordering the 10 lb option anymore.

Now honestly tell me: what would you do with 1o lbs of chocolate paradise energy squares sitting right in front of you?

Are they really that good? I have never tried anything "health related" that tastes good when its chocolate flavoured.

Don't know what they are, but if I liked them, I'd be getting them the hell out of my face, lol! Probably freeze them :)

I haven't tried the chocolate energy squares. So I'll pretend I have a ten pound bag of my beloved caramel calcium chews - or better yet....my even-more-beloved Quest Chocolate Brownie Protein Bars. Now that's a party!

Yup - these little bundles of energy are really good and provide good carbs and fats for those hard workouts. I would not eat them as a regular snack though because 2 are 120 calories. They can be a little addicting so you need to understand who is the master and who is the slave when eating these. You can order them off nuts.com. They work really well to fuel the legs before and during a long run (45 minutes and up).

Interesting question. Each standard pack of chocolate energy squares is 1 lb and contains about 15 squares. If my bag contains 10 lb then there are 150 squares. Each square is 60 calories making the grand total 9000 calories. Not really that bad considering the amount of nutrition per cubic inch you can derive from it.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
