And for cake bakers as well:

"Chocolate

A good piece of chocolate has about 200 calories. As I enjoy 2 servings per night and a few more on weekends, I consume about 3,500 calories of chocolate in a week, which equals one pound of weight per week.

Therefore, in the last 3 1/2 years, I have had chocolate caloric intake of about 180 pounds, and I only weigh 155 pounds, so without chocolate, I would have wasted away to nothing about 3 months ago.

I owe my life to chocolate."

This theory makes my day! Janice

I'm so glad that you love chocolate !!! CC would be at a lost without you , so keep eating the chocolate for us

Janice,
OMG!!!!!! That is TOOOOO Funny, But thankfully your Not wasting away on us... I can't wait to tell my Hubby about this and He Will feel MUCH Better about his chocolate habbit..errr ummm addiction,, lmao =0) ~Throws a dove bite your way~
=0)Sweet~

this is great news. i don't feel so bad anymore about all the chocolate i eat. now i can say i have to eat it or i will be no more.

LOL Janice! That theory works for me . I usually have my chocolate on top of cake or an eclair or in a pie...you think that throws off the calculations? Without chocolate, everyone around me would have wish I had wasted away.

I am cracking up reading this! Does this philosophy work for icing as well???

I love it Janice ... not that I needed an excuse to have chocolate hehe

I'm going to have to eat more chocolate...lol..
this is toooo funny...

Just another affirmation that chocolate should be one of the major food groups...it's necessary to sustain life!

Funny Janice!!!!! I eat lots of fruit but I have to have a few chocolate chips w/ it too!!! Can't forget the marshmello's!!!!! YUMMY!!!!!

3 CHEERS FOR CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!!

I have to laugh at that too... I was thinking I love chocolate especially when I am bored, but I find that I am more addicted to Iced cappucinos.. especially the frappucinos and the syrup you buy called Nescafe's Iced Java
Heck I think I will have another right now!

I like these quotes:

"Give me chocolate and nobody gets hurt!"

"Stressed is desserts spelled backwards!"

I also like: "Life is uncertain, have dessert first!"

and of course dessert is chocolate, or at least cake!

Janice

You all are too funny! Here's to three cheers for chocolate.

Janice

Way too funny!

I don't know what I would do without chocolate....lose my sanity I guess! LOL . White chocolate is my favorite...just can't get enough

I'm working on my maintenance right now...I have white chocolate pudding (sugar free of course) and chocolate stick graham crackers to go with it...yum!
You know how important a good breakfast is! Janice
