OK, no more depressing shit

I cheated on the diet with a little piece of World's Finest Chocolate like from a fundraiser. I have to admit it tasted like total shite.

Eckerd's had big heart boxes of low carb Valentine candy. Please, someone remember me on Saturday night.

i never did care much for world's finest chocolate. it's a sham, but the cause is justly.

I despise diets that make you feel like crap if you have one little piece of candy. Think about it -- the calorie intake from that piece of chocolate was probably less than with one egg or piece of bacon, which is totally fine on Atkins. I don't see the logic necessarily. I have to have my little bits of chocolate each day or else I binge on things like an entire bag of Oreos after a while.

Jeff's brother-in-law who lives in France tells me that the French have a saying that goes something like "Eat a little chocolate every day, and you will never be fat." Evidently the logic is that if you allow yourself *small* indulgences, you won't be tempted to do the entire-bag-of-Oreos thing.

Anyway, that's my method. Don't feel so guilty. :)

Atkins doesn't allow any sugar, though I've cheated on that a little with ketchum, ranch dressing, etc. Though lately, I'm doing a "modified Atkins" type diet, which is more satifying. The weight loss is starting to show! 13 pounds all together and I think I've lost more inches than pounds.

I see no problem either with a few small endulgances. Though I must say the candy tasted like shit, so the ol' metabolism must have changed. I usually get orgasmic over chocolate!
