Of course you continue on your program for better health. Read your Know Your Why list again. [Free downloadable .pdf Form 1...the others are good to have too. https://cookingketowithkristie.com/...nloadable-pdfs/ ]

As you said...it could have been much worse for your health if you binged on a sugary chocolate bar. Why the concept of "Fat Bombs" has become so popular in the Keto Diet websites. You can find hundreds of recipes, but here is one example: https://lowcarbyum.com/chocolate-pe...at-bomb-recipe/. Keep them in your freezer and have ONE when the chocolate cravings hit.
Of course, it is better to not eat anything, or a HB egg with mayo, but the option to have a "sweet" treat made with an acceptable natural sweetener is what has gotten many through the tough early days of going LC, switching your body from running on refined carbs to getting it to run on fat, mostly from your body!

I highly recommend Kristie Sullivan's videos and articles on DietDoctor how she finally, after dozens of diets and WLS, committed to a Ketogenic diet. http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=470795 What she did when the craving for sweet overcame her was make a 3 Ingredient PB Cookie (there is a video for those) and Fat Bombs, her video explains how to use them: https://youtu.be/OgZ4Sfb6J1s
