[Sca-cooks] cravings?

[Anne]

Yes, actually -- two multis a day, and two B-complex ... seems to be
what I need to stay healthy.  *Life* gets stressful!   :)

Watching potassium intake as well, since doc just started me on a
diuretic.  Don't like red meat, though, and anemia is a recurring
problem, I have to watch for that.

But the cravings are *really* intense ... !  And if I don't give in, I
spend the evening in the kitchen baking something just as bad for me
until I break down and just have the stinkin' chunk of garlic bread,
or whatever.  :)

So -- what kind and form of chocolate is your poison?!
