Pat -

First of all - I would like to congratulate you on your weight loss - regardless of how much it is - it is better than still having the pounds or gaining additional ones!

But I must tell you - chocolate is very good for you and very medicinal! (Now how is that for an excuse to enjoy it!!)

It is a woman's God-given right to enjoy chocolate.

Chocolate will never argue with us, throw dirty laundry around, complain about spending money while we are saving so much at sales, or hide the remote from us - as well as other things.

Since we only live once - we may as well live as CHOCOHOLICS!

If chocolate was bad for us - God would not have created it. And there is so much we can do with chocolate.

So enjoy!

(like my philosophy??)
