Reeses Indulgence...

chocoholic: chocoholic is a pormanteau of "chocolate" and "alcoholic," referring to an alleged addiction to chocolate.

Chocoholism, if not maintained, may result in over-consumption of chocolate, which may cause high blood-sugar levels and possibly obesity.

Today is my weigh-in day at Weight Watchers. I now weigh-in in the mornings at about 6:30 am. (No, I'm not a crazy person who enjoys waking up early in the morning, I'm a mom and get no choice in the matter) Anyways, I go in the mornings to get on the scale because if I don't, I find myself not eating all day so I don't add any unnecessary "food weight" to my weight.

I'm very proud of how much I've been able to stick to it this time around. I have completed 6 full weeks now without much struggle. (maybe a few speed bumps, but I've been able to overcome them)

So, I walk in, I get on the scale and what do you know, I was able to lose 1lb. this week, which made me very happy because not only is it much more significant that the .2 I lost last week, but it means I've walked past a donut shop (that always has a VERY sweet aroma) about 20 times on the way to my Weight Watcher meetings without ever going in. = )

I walked out feeling very happy and capable to tackle another week...another pound. I get in my car to come home, turn on K-Love...and of all the things they could possibly be talking about, they are talking about REESES Peanut Butter Cups!!!! AY!!!

Anyone who knows me well knows I LOVE Reeses with a passion. They were asking callers what they do with a Reese Peanut Butter Cup...luckily I missed almost the entire list except for the last two which were as follows:

1) Deep Fried Reeses Peanut Butter Cup

& (saving the best for last)

2) Reeses S'mores... meaning graham cracker, toasted marshmallow, REESES PEANUT BUTTER CUP, graham cracker...YUM!!!
(the caller explained it as, "inside the s'more you have melted chocolate and still a chunk of creamy, rich peanut butter"

I almost made a u-turn and drove to the grocery store.

All I have to say is, God has a sense of humor....wish my luck this week, I'm going to need it!!!
