If I am not supposed to eat it, I am unable to resist it.

I have an enormous amount of will power - I will eat that slice of pie, I will eat the last of the butter pecan ice cream (yummmm!) and I will buy that yard of fabric (oh you say there are only 3 yards left, better get them all then)!

HA!

Pretty much anything sweet - especially chocolate. Also, salt and vinegar potato chips. Talk about 2 ends of the spectrum!

have this thing for chocolate moose tracks, an alaska classic ice cream. to die for. can eat half a carton for supper. this stuff is addictive. however, to be practical, i buy the churned kind -- less calories!

I don't desire chocolate but if it's in the house forgetaboutit. At Christmas someone always gives us a box of chocolates. Once the box is opened I leave on the dining room hutch. Everytime I pass the dining room I take a piece, coming back I take another piece and so it goes. A week of so later DH asks, "Didn't we have a box of chocolates?" Funny man, did he expect the chocolates to sit there all week, someone had to eat them before the went bad. LOL! May in Jersey

Good for you !! a little bit of what you fancy does you good!!

Good for you and you keep up the good work. You worked too hard to get where you are!
Thank you!! We will see how today goes.
How did you get IN control? I would love to know, I just can't seem to get to that point or stay there! :(
