i have been taking chromium picolinate for about 2/3 years. I take way more than I should - 1 every time I eat as opposed to 1 per day. I'm terrified of giving them up cos Ive convinced myself I wil get fat without them. but my legs are getting too muscley even though im not exercising which im sure is a result of this and I dont like it - they are too out of propotion. I cant stop taking the tablets but i dont want to look like this either. I hate my body and I dont over-eat, but I'm never happy with how it looks. help me!

Yes, I would say that you are addicted to those and sould probably stop. BB1Fit already responded to your other post in the nutrition forum. Chromium will not make you gain fat if you stop using them. Gaining fat is determined on your exercise and nutrition, what you feed your body and how much you exercise.
