@chocolate5lover milk chocolate just tastes bland to me, I started eating dark chocolate when I was just a kid because my mother favored it. I suspect that dark chocolate was more in the 50 - 60 percent range though. I like it all the way up to 85% but more than that I don’t care for.
I have been gaining weight for a while now and vacation was really the icing on the cake - even though I ate no cake! I would like to lose 10 - 12 pounds to get back to a more comfortable weight where my clothes fit. Thankfully I still had some pants from a higher weight so I am stuck wearing them right now. Some of the gain is fluid retention from eating out so much - I use very little salt at home. Experience has shown me that even fluid takes a couple of weeks to make its way out of my tissues.

I always keep a pair of warm-up pants around, just in case I have enjoyed too much good cooking. I call these my holiday pants : ) It pays to have a sense of humor when battling a pesky disease.
