Chocolate Ball Revenge

So, I just wrote in my last blog that I've been obsessed with chocolate balls. Chocolate balls are a really easy dessert that you don't even have to cook. They come in a bag and you mix the batter with water and oil, put them in the fridge and pop them in your mouth. Healthy? No, they are definitely not healthy. So, now that I let myself go today and ate maybe four - ok, I'll be realistic - maybe 10...I have to figure out what to do with myself! At first, I was going to calculate how many calories I consumed and then work off that many calories tomorrow.

And then I decided to be human. Ok - so I goofed...so I like the chocolate balls a bit too much and I need to remember next time to feed the extras to.............anyone but myself! So, I will exercise tomorrow just like I try to do everyday and I'll survive. And I won't - I repeat I won't - get on the scale tomorrow and be even more horrified with myself than I already am. I do think that's it very important to put our health in perspective. So, sometimes we fall off the wagon and sometimes we indulge. It doesn't mean that we are bad, nor does it mean that we can't get back on. It also doesn't mean that we've gained a hundred pounds. Good lessons to learn on a night when I'm full of chocolate balls!
