I caved :(
I went grocery shopping and bought all kinds of healthy food: salad, cucumbers, carrots, and conveniently pre-portioned frozen vegetables that I can heat up in the microwave for a quick lunch.
I had enough self-control not to buy my favorite candy, Reese's peanut-butter cups (the white ones *sighs wistfully*), but after a week without chocolate - except for my daily spoonful of Nutella -, I succumbed to the lure of the extra-dark Hershey's with Macadamia nuts and cranberries. Three squares = 200 calories/100 fat calories. From the lips to the hips, I'm afraid, because I was so exhausted today that I skipped my evening walk. But you can't live in the States and not occasionally eat Hershey's chocolate. It's un-American!
