Hello Paul and Nephew! Glad you always get a few bars of chocolate. I think it's important to treat yourself once in awhile. My downfall is cookies (homemade, hot out of the oven). I have no "off" switch when fresh cookies are involved-LOL! Have a great week
I love chocolate. Other sugary things, I'm really not fussed about. I'll eat some cookies or candy if they're there, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get them. Chocolate, however, is my one true vice. So I limit myself to 2 bars a week. Because if you deny yourself constantly, it's hard to keep up with any kind of diet. By allowing myself that little pleasure on the weekend, it's easy to eat helthy the rest of the week.
Amazing how things add up. I try to stay in $55 US a week for just edibles. Cleaning products etc are above and beyond that. Olive oil is pricey and you have to be careful as all extra virgin oils ate not created equal
$55 is a tight budget, especially if you try to get fresh, non-processed foods. And yes, olive oil (and oils in general) has gotten so expensive. There's always a bit of an "ouch" moment when you have to restock items like that. At least it will last me a while.
