Did you know there were rules?

Did you even know that there were certain rules and regulations for eating chocolate? No? Then this came just in the nick of time! Phew!! I need to try just a tad bit harder. Especially on # 4!!



1. If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it too slowly.
2. Chocolate covered raisins, cherries, orange slices, and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.


3. The Problem: How to get 2 lbs of chocolate home from the store in a hot car. Solution: Eat it in the parking lot!
4. Diet Tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the edge off your appetite and you'll eat less.


5. A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Isn't that handy?
6. If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer.
But if you can't eat all your chocolates, what's wrong with you?



7. If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves.
8. If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a balanced diet? Don't they actually counteract each other?


9. Money talks, chocolate SINGS!
10. Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger.



Have you every wondered why there are no such organizations as Chocoholics Anonymous?
Uh, Hello? Who would want to quit?! LOL.
If not for chocolate, there would be no need for control top pantyhose. An entire garment industry would be devastated! Put "EAT CHOCOLATE" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done!

Have a most excellent day my friends!!
HUGS!

  2. You know there may just be something to that #4
    I once knew a lady with a perfect figure who always ate her dessert before her meal,she said that was how she kept her figure.
    I wonder if that would work with that bowl of ice cream I seem to crave every night.

  12. Love this!! What a great post!!

    Coffee sounds good.

    I've told Debi we need to have a FL blogger meet up sometime.

    Once we get done our school year this year, maybe I'll put one together. It would be fun to finally meet :-)

  13. I read Chocolate Rules the other way at first... rules as a verb. Nice how it works both ways.

    #4 is going to be my new #1 diet rule. #6 totally cracked me up. I'm glad you included a Lucy pic. I miss her.

    I must remember to pick up some chocolate bars before I use my BOGO coupon at Ruby Tuesday this weekend. Hmmm... maybe not. I wanna get my money's worth out of that. 8-]

    Have a JESUS-filled day! ^i^

  16. Since chocolate actually grows on tree and is from a bean I count it as a vegetable. Oh yes, I do not kid. Well, I do, but wouldn't that be neat?! I'm loving these! Who said Friday Funnies had to wait until Friday?! Not us!

  17. I am a big-time chocoholic! I have heard that dark chocolate is good for you, really!

    I like to think that chocolate comes from the cocoa bean and everyone knows that beans are a protein. So eat to your hearts content!!!
