So interesting to read about stockpiling!!! I do that, especially with foods that have a charge for me.
I think giving up choc for a determined amount of time is a great idea, and then I can see how it affects me.
I’ve lost my journal can’t find it anywhere, so have started a new one, will note all this down
Have a good weekend everyone. It’s early Friday evening here in the UK, I’m just in from work, and normally I used to have a few squares of dark choc as a treat ( I can’t only eat one square unfortunately), but not tonight

: And I really enjoy my one square, but
: my chocolate consumption has not
: crept up at all. Also, I use the
: 90% cocoa and the few times I have
: tried the 85% cocoa (once it was
: mixed in with the 90% and I bought
: the wrong one, and another time
: someone gave me one), even though
: it has only a tiny bit more sugar,
: I don't like the flavor nearly as
: well.

: One thing I only have every once in a
: while because even though I really
: like it, I can tell it isn't good
: for me, is lattes. Every once in a
: blue moon I will get a decaf
: latte. However, I know it isn't
: good for me because it takes away
: my appetite and gives me a bit of
: a stomach ache, so most of the
: time, even if I want it, I don't
: order one, and have herbal tea
: instead. (This is when my husband
: and I go to Starbucks.)
