Chocolate and Irony Diet by Osmosis

One of these things is not like the others:


What's missing is most of the Peanut M and Ms, some of the Hershey Kisses, the new Snickers Peanut Butter Squares bar, a 3rd Snickers with Almonds, and a 2nd Toblerone.  I can't believe I bought most of this assortment at the same time as the new Weight Watchers magazine.  The scary thing is, I didn't see the irony at the time.  With blinders on, the conquest of chocolate over reason must be fulfilled.  I wonder if the cashier recognized the futility of this pairing.  HaHaHa, oh well.

Do I believe I will lose weight through osmosis, by reading the magazine and watching, "The Biggest Loser," "I Used to be Fat," and other weight loss programs?  As for the irony and the humor, I don't know which is truer.

Oh sigh, yes...it's happened to the best of us. I've often found myself in the supermarket checkout with a frozen pizza, a bottle of wine, a bag of chips, and a Women's Health or Yoga Journal. Yup. I see the little indulgences as food for the soul, though, so not so ironic or counter-productive after all, eh? :D

Clare, that's a good excuse, I mean perspective LOL! Life without chocolate, I don't know how I used to do that.

It is comforting to know that there are others like me...I too bought that magazine the other day, I have yet to look through it.
Mmmmm chocolate.
