It was such a warm sunny day that I went outside on my lunch hour and walked around. I passed the Godiva chocolate store, and remembered that they had some chocolates squares that were 72% cocoa, so I went in. Then I saw a big advertisement for new "chocolixir" frozen drinks, and before I knew it, I was ordering one. I asked the woman behind the counter if she had the nutritional information for the chocolixir, and while she looked for it, I sucked down half the drink.

I copied down the nutritional info... 99 carbs total!! :o So I left the store, and threw the half remaining into the trash. Know what? It wasn't even worth the 50 carbs. Lesson learned. The drink wasn't great, but as soon as started drinking it, I couldn't stop, like a baby sucking on momma's teat! I'm such a choco-addict. For future reference, you should know that it tasted like drinking melted dark chocolate, which is essentially what it was. Very rich and (too) sweet. END-OF-CONFESSION.

Onward and downward (in size, that is!) :p
