    Stay strong! You'll feel worse if you give in to the temptation.... but so proud of your self if you don't!

    You could try to chew a piece of gum and drink a glass of water. Savor the coolness of the water and let it put out the little frustration fire from your bad day. Good air in, bad air out. Oh and a big hug froma stranger who wants to show a little support.

    Oddly enough, someone on here gave me some advice about that- and it works!
    1) Drink a glass of water, 2) go on a walk or exercise for 20 min or so, and 3) if temptation still exists, buy a chocolate bar that is between 50-75 % cocoa.... and let yourself have one or two squares.
    I swear up and down it works!
    Also, weird thing is: if I crave chocolate and I let myself have some 'milk chocolate' I immediately feel bad, and second, crave more. When i tried the dark chocolate advice, after 1 piece I was totally sated!!!

    Hope you have a MUCH better day tomorrow - you rock!
