LOSE WEIGHT ON CHOCOLATE
While talking to my son he was telling me about a new thing out that lets you lose weight. So of course I had to know all about it. Here it is: chocolate. Now how can you lose weight on chocolate. I am a choc. or die person. If I don't get my choc. I feel like I could pull my hair out and I am dead serious. So to lose weight and eat choc. to me that would be heaven. He said it is a new program that is going on down in Nashville. This is supposed to be a type of healthy chocolate and granted I have been reading a lot on the dark choc. and how it is supposed to be healthy for you. I will try to find out all about it and post it on here. But with the way we cook it would have to work wonders. I am trying to get started back on WW. No matter how much I try I just can't seem to be like the ones on the biggest loser and lose weight. I have thyroid problems and that is my trouble. I can go all day and not eat and just eat a little in the evening and do this for a week and still not lose weight.
When I was younger in high school my dad was a printer. A man sent him the grapefruit diet to print up and this has been at least 30 years ago. lol. I went on it and went from a size 14 down to a size 7 and I can say that it does work. But you had better not have a bad stomach because it can sure upset it. And now a lot of meds. today does not allow you to drink grapefruit juice and take them. To me the best diet to follow is WW. My aunt was telling me how her daughter wanted to get preg. and her doc. told her she needed to lose some weight first. She said that the best way was to walk for at least 45 minutes a day and you would lose weight. It would stay off better by walking then just trying to starve it off. I know different ones who has starved it off including me and gain their weight back plus more. Well I am no doctor and not trying to get anyone to try anything but me for one sure needs to lose. I will try to find out more about the new choc. thing that is going on. See you all......

Pour the sauce mixture over the meatballs in a crockpot and cook on low for 3 hours or a little longer. Just test them to see if they are seasoned good.
