Dark Chocolate, Banana Chips, & Strawberry Frozen Yogurt, Oh My!

Yummy chocolate!  Yeah I know, I shouldn't have had chocolate but yesterday I most definitely indulged.  I went to Walgreens to pick up some water (I don't trust the faucet water around here) and a movie from Red Box and I somehow talked myself into buying some Lindt smooth dark chocolate, banana chips (mistake!), and Blue Bell's Strawberry NONFAT frozen yogurt:

  • I'm not the biggest fan of dark chocolate but it's been a few days since I've had sweets and OMG that chocolate was AMAZING.  Very smooth just like the label says.  I went with the dark chocolate, because if I eat sweets I might as well go with one that has some benefits.  
  • I ate the banana chips because I saw somebody eating them yesterday and then the cravings proceded.  I've decided to indulge on my cravings as long as I eat them in moderation so I went for it.
  • The frozen yogurt was amazing!  180 calories for a cup (where most icecreams are about 180 for a 1/2 cup) and the flavor was great!  Now, that may be coming from a person who will drool over anything sweet since I haven't had any goodies in a while, but the fact remains, it was very satisfying and didn't have a diet taste.  Go Blue Bell!! 
I guess yesterday was a day of laxity, but I've gotten to points in the past where I felt like I was sacrificing and that feeling is what makes me rebound. I'd like to avoid that thank-you very much!

Still working on that whole working out thing.  I think I might just resign to the fact that it's way too difficult to exercise away from home.  It's only another week right?  It wouldn't hurt to get some exercise in but it won't kill me. 

I'm also drinking as much water as possible.  Not that I'm avoiding diet drinks, but it's gotten to the point where I drink so much water, I don't have the space in my stomach to get the diet drink in lol

*WARNING* Do NOT eat a multi-vitamin on an empty stomach.  It will make you nauseated and want to puke.

Going to Texas today to visit my parents for the weekend so hopefully I can stay true to my goals and plan.  I know my parents use my visit as an excuse to make goodies (which I never pass on by the way), but as long as I exhibit some self control, it shouldn't be a problem.

Love & Dark Chocolate,
Elizabeth
