Yes I ate a Chocolate - but it didn't even taste good

Oct 02, 2014

There they were - sitting on the desk of my co-worker - Hershey Nuggets!  They stared at me, I had trouble looking away.  It's been 3 months and really haven't been tempted - but they were just right there!  And I swear I could smell the chocolate.

What a major disappointment.  Yes I ate one and didn't even enjoy it.  So much for "missing" my beloved friend. While I justified having one by looking over my menu for the day and making the choice to splurge, I was so sad when I didn't enjoy it.  My mind wanted to love it, the taste buds had a mind of their own.

So, lesson learned. Even though some of old habits and likes of the past are still ingrained, they really have changed.  It was a surprise, a realization.  I guess the lesson learned is that I can, and probably should, still try some things to see how they affect me and how I feel about them.  Living the low-carb life has certainly changed my taste buds and what my body needs.

Now to get my head to catch up!  I'm counting this as an NSV; chocolate is no longer my achilles heel.
