Melanie, chocolate--specifically, dark chocolate--is my "drug of choice" when I'm highly stressed, feeling emotionally at odds with the world, or suddenly feel like crying (I'm perimenopausal). Good for you, though, to realize that little indulgences need to be made-up for right away. You go, girl!

12 Hershey's kisses do NOT have "1000-1100 calories" as Melanie claims in the video. According to the information on the package, 9 Hershey's kisses have 270 calories--that's 30 calories apiece. So Melanie's 12 kisses had 360 calories, not a thousand or more. I'm not suggesting it wasn't a "splurge"--but it's important to keep such things in perspective. "A kiss is just a kiss"--and 30 calories.
