But I want chocolate.  What IS it with chocolate, by the way?  Why is that the universal (stereotypical) stress food?
I mean, I know what's going on.  I'm tired.  I'm anxious about upcoming vacation and tour.  I'm anxious about my new job.  I'm worried about my marriage.  I'm worried about my child.  There's a lot of stuff going on.  I'm also seeing physical changes due to exercise (and still no dieting!), and I can FEEL that I am internally struggling with that, for whatever reasons I tend to struggle with losing body mass.
Now I need to decide if I want to just have the taste of chocolate that I want and be done with a taste, or if I want to reason my way away from it.  I think either approach will be okay, and after typing, I think the latter will be the choice for tonight.  I can have it tomorrow, if I want.  And I think I will end my night with some yoga, since that has been tremendously helpful for my mood lately.
