3. After we beat ourselves up, and stare at the empty wrappers on the table of devoured chocolate, we ask ourselves why are we so vulnerable to chocolate whenever there is a weak moment---so we go into deep reflection.

4. Then, your mother calls, or the next thought comes in quickly---and YUP there's goes the little bit of deep reflection right out the window.

5. THEN REPEAT!!!
