Sugar Savvy

Working in an office, I am surrounded by delectable aromas that come out of the microwave. The food always smells so delicious that I wish my Lean Cuisine would turn into a juicy hamburger with chocolate French fries.

When I finish my cuisine, I sit back at my desk and begin to feel this force that turns my head towards the drawer next to my keyboard. One of my coworkers gave me a bag of the tastiest little bite size candy bars, Dark Chocolate Nestle Crunch Bars (one of my weaknesses).

I am not trying to lose weight, but just maintain my figure so my wedding dress will fit perfect in a few weeks. That voice inside my head, though, keeps whispering, “One bite size bar won’t show a new crunch on my thighs”. But I know if I have one, I will have another, and then I will find myself surrounded by the miniature wrappers and chocolate on my keyboard. I continue to do my work, until the force takes over. I grab the miniature piece of Dark Chocolate Nestle Crunch heaven, and put the rest back in the drawer. I devour this sweetness and I must tell you, I am satisified!

But . . . one more won’t hurt me, and by the way, it is said that dark chocolate is good for you.
