i shamelessly admit that I clearly have a genetic advantage as I have embraced chocolate as a major food group all my life without masses of problems and that's bloody unfair. I could probably stand to lose some weight now and be healthier. But bad things TASTE TOO GOOD. i have just had a slab of Thorntons chocolate and some white wine for dinner, and you know what? It was MUCH better than being a size 10 felt... I may have biscuits for pudding

i also think there is something wrong with people who say wine and chocolate don't go together. to be fair, i don't think there are many things wine doesn't go with!

Stealth - I recommend a visit to Selfridge's chocolate hall after Easter to pick up some goodies in the sale. Charbonnel et walker champagne truffles in particular so much better than sex that I'm not surprised I'm poor and not having sex any more!

I don't think that anything tastes as good as being slim feels, but I don't seem to remember this when I'm scoffing my nightly easter egg.

LauraIngallsWilder · 02/04/2010 20:51

Have a chocolate
I agree with you partly because I too like chocolate
But also because I know that phrase is an inspiration to people with eating disorders.

I commented as such on the thread and was told to go away.............

Being a healthy weight is obviously a good thing - but LOTS of things taste better than being slim feels

As a child I used to eat cheese by gnawing on an entire block... and finishing it.

Kate Moss said this didn't she?

She takes so much cocaine she can't actually taste anything.

Probably.

omaoma · 02/04/2010 20:52

luckily this probably preserved my teeth from all the chocolate

dh has just eaten a Gu Banoffee pie in front of me. There are two in the box but I have resisted and had an apple instead. I bet that one remaining banoffee pie tastes much better than being slim feels!

we are trying to focus on how pleased you are when you can wear anything,
fit into clothes that became " shrunk in teh wash"
and not have to worry HOW your arse looks other than fabuloso

AnzoneioBanderas · 02/04/2010 20:54

i dont think we are model style by a long way so dont worry!

30andMerkin · 02/04/2010 20:56

Well brie definitely does, for starters.

As does a really lovely French burgundy. Or Rioja. Or Chianti.

Flapjacks defo. Green'n'Blacks - check. Perfect roast chicken and mash - check. Pecorino. Bacon sandwich. Mini Magnum. Mmm mmm.

BelleDameSansMerci · 02/04/2010 20:56

I had an apple for my dinner because I wasn't hungry.

Now, for pudding, I'm having ginger sponge pudding and double cream. I couldn't give a stuff how good being slim feels...
