What if I eat it and then am radically honest about the fact that I ate it? I see potential here...

Then again, if Flick's not enthusiastic about it, you can't touch it. And if you're not enthusiastic about him eating it, he can't touch it. That chocolate will be around until the next millenium.

I checked all Dr. Harley's books.......
I even did an advanced website search.......
And you'll never believe it...... but,
Chocolate IS exempt from POJA......
I think it's the only exemption......
Recovery began 10/07;
Meeting my wife's EN's is my "thank you" that refuses to be silenced.

Oh, thank GOD. There are no rules in my house where chocolate is concerned and I was worried. It's every man(or woman) for himself. Do you think Dr. Harley could be persuaded to include that exception in his next book.

 Actually I'm the type that would "save" it for all eternity. My DH and kids are teaching me that it's no good just sitting there, you may as well eat it before it goes bad... or before they do!  ^^^^^^ Just cus I've wanted to use this lil guy for quite some time...

What if you give the chocolate to your spouse but you really wanted it for yourself?
Is that sacrifice?
Will I start resenting my spouse?
Worse, will I start resenting chocolate?

Just give up chocolate for Lent.
No wait, that's a sacrifice...
Give the chocolate to your spouse but while he's sleeping, eat it yourself.
Sure that's IB, but the next morning you can practice PORH and confess. Confession is good for the soul so that takes care of Lent as well.

If you eat chocolate in secret and never tell your spouse, is it a form of infidelity? We have financial infidelity. Do we have junk-food infidelity?
And, is it an EA if you only LOOK at the chocolate and think of eating it, but don't?

That reminds me of the old philosophical question:
"If a woman talks in the woods and there is no man there to hear it, was there really any sound?"

Retread: LOL!
But even if the man is there, what if he isn't listening?

OT: See this guy? ----> I thought that blue kleenex box was a podium or a stage lil dude was standing on. I thought the kleenex was an envelope, as in "... the envelope, please." I thought when lil dude holds the kleenex to his face and blows his nose, he was doing a Johnny Carson "Amazing Carnak" thing where he holds the envelope to his forhead to discern what's inside. I couldn't figure out why he was crying, unless maybe he wanted someone else to win the Oscar. It's freaky how lil round yellow dude is just floating above the kleenex box. Am I the only one bothered by this?

"I've looked on many chocolates with hunger. I've committed junk-food infidelity in my heart many times. God knows I will do this and forgives me." (I love this guy) Yes, I've committed chocolate lust in my heart. But I remain true to my first love, vanilla. However, reality intrudes. My trainer says: "Anything you eat in private shows up in public" I think the same wind up being true for infidelity of the non-food variety?
