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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
