I went away on a ladies retreat this past weekend. The retreat's theme was "Taste and See that the Lord is Good".
Someone decided that CHOCOLATE would be the main ingredient of the snacks. Chocolate was everywhere!
But, I resisted! There was a chocolate fountain, with fresh fruit to use to dip....so I enjoyed the strawberries and bananas. I also came prepared with some acceptable snacks in my purse.

Found that with preparation, I can go to functions like that and still be in control and stay on program. It really is a great feeling!

That is so impressive! The smell of melted chocolate is almost irresistable, so well done for resisting!

Ooo... Chocolate is my weakness. Good job with planning ahead on the snacks! I'll have to try that sometime!

Well done! Having chocolate there is completely opposite to what I learned in church yesterday. Love self as in 1 Cor 13. Be patient when getting healthy. Be kind to self. God wants you to be healthy and to make healthy choices.
