I loved this book. But that has nothing to do with my post.
Since beginning Weight Watchers, 6 weeks ago now, I have not eaten much chocolate. Maybe 4 times, and, for a confirmed chocolate addict (I was genuinely afraid of my habit) that's a big deal. Three of those occasions were this week, as I celebrated my birthday and the visit of a friend.
Sunday night we ate at my favorite restaurant, Ted's Montana Grill. As it was my birthday celebration, I had dessert; a peanut butter cookie and two scoops of Haagen Dazs chocolate ice cream. It was wonderful; but I was up in the night with heartburn.
Wednesday night we ate at my favorite restaurant, (find me where it is written that I can't have two; I dare you) the Public House. Afterward, as it was my actual birthday, we went to Culver's and I had a hot fudge sundae. I was up three times in the night with heartburn.
Tonight I had dinner with my friend and part of her family. Her son smoked a brisket, there were lots of go-withs, and I made a chocolate zucchini cake. I am about to head off to bed, and I have heartburn.
Do you suppose I can't eat ice cream anymore? Or is it zucchini?
Because it can't be choc--choco---chocolate, can it?

Hmmmm... could simply be the extra occurences of richer fare all in a short period of time.
Otherwise, I'd be blaming the corn syrup sweetners in the ice cream, but I'm terribly biased against corn syrup.
Hope you're feeling better!
Susan and I were just talking last week about having trouble with ice cream.
