Do not let the last post fool you. I do have bad habits. But, I have made some positive changes. Those positive changes are progress that I need to acknowledge, no matter how small they seem to be.
Sugar. I have eliminated white sugar from my coffee; rather, I switched to Agave Nectar. It is true, you use less nectar than white sugar. The taste is not as strong as honey - at least not the Agave in the Raw. I'm sure the darker nectar is more intense.
Chocolate. We all need a little chocolate. It stimulates parts of my brain that otherwise seek out far worse substances. It is a lesser evil. I like dark chocolate, but lately I've only had milk chocolate around to nibble on. I've gotten very good at portion control by eating only one or two rectangles off of a Hershey's bar or by eating only one little chocolate out of an Advent calendar. Hershey's are approximately 17.5 calories per rectangle on a standard size bar; the Advent chocolates are about 15 calories each.
