attention chocolate lovers!!!!! You can now eat all the chocolate you want and not gain a lb!!!!!!

OK, Not quite... but I got your attention RIGHT?!?


I wish I could tell you I found a miracle cure for Chocoholics disease or better yet, found a chocolate bar that tastes amazing and actually burns calories as you eat it... and gives you a 6-pack and automatically lifts your back side, makes your boobs bigger, and gets rid or wrinkles! (hey, this is my fantasy, It can be whatever I want!)


Unfortunately, I haven't found that for ya yet (but I've devoted my life to the pursuit of it!)  In the mean time,  I did find this...




Twix raises the bar in the battle to cut out calories as ‘lighter’ chocolate market widens





















Lighter: The usual biscuit base has gone and Twix Fino has 48 fewer calories than a normal Twix
It has lost its crunchy biscuit base and ditched some 48 calories.
But the brains behind the new, lighter, version of the Twix bar are hoping it will win over a fresh legion of chocolate fans keen to quench their sugar cravings without piling on the pounds.
Confectionery giant Mars has unveiled its latest Twix chocolate bar which has a third fewer calories than the traditional version.
Called Twix Fino, it is the first permanent addition to the Twix brand in its 40-year history, and is pitched against Nestle’s Kit Kat Senses and Ferrero’s Kinder Bueno.
The latest research reveals that many major sweet manufacturers are increasingly responding to the demands of women who love a pick-me-up chocolate bar, but are worried about their waistlines.
The new Twix variety, with a recommended price tag of 52p, features a wafer rather than a biscuit base and contains 94 calories compared with the 142 calories in a standard bar.


The opposition: Galaxy Bubbles, above, is another ‘lighter’ chocolate product, as is Mars Delight, below






It joins Galaxy Bubbles, which came out in January, and Mars Delight, launched in 2004, in Mars’ growing portfolio of ‘lighter’ chocolate bars.
Bep Sandhu, from Mars, told trade magazine The Grocer: ‘The lighter version will help expand the appeal of the brand to female professionals looking for a lighter snack.’
The new variety, which is Mars’ biggest launch this year, is available in independent stores and selected outlets now, before being introduced to supermarkets next year.

Erin's Break-up diet rules!

1. Do not Hit the Taco Bell Drive through, HIT a punching bag instead!  Try a kickboxing class, picture his head and WAIL AWAY!


2. LISTEN to my ANGRY Music play list over and over again while screaming the lyrics and doing crunches!


    Erin's Angry Play list:


           1. I Don't Care by Apocalyptica
           2. Since You Been Gone by A Day To Remember
           3. Ignorance by Paramore
           4. Stronger by Kanye West
           5. add some of your own


3. Take full advantage of the heartache from your horrible break-up and starve yourself until you are so week you haven't the strength to dial his number!  (ok, just kidding on this one... eat a balanced diet so you feel great!  but still... DON'T CALL HIM!)


4. Buy a pair of jeans that make your butt look amazing!  (a few lunges never heart anybody either)

The Great Debate!

"Should I or Shouldn't I?" That's what you'll say when you're driving past Wendy's at ten o'clock at night, or when your alarm go's off at 6 am to go running! But, are getting dressed or brushing your teeth up for discussion? NO! Neither should eating healthy or exercising. At this point you're probably still doing the GREAT DEBATE when you should STOP THINKING and SUCK IT UP AND DO IT!

GET YOUR BUTT IN GEAR! ...yes, I said BUTT! :)

The HARSH REALITY!

You cannot keep shoveling the same crap into your mouth every day and expect to lose weight!
