For years I could not eat chocolate because it triggered a migraine headache.....took me a long time to figure that one out. One Hershey Kiss would make me hurt so much I decided they did not taste as good if I had to endure that much pain.

I quit smoking 15 years ago, enjoyed the first one I smoked and enjoyed the last one I smoked; however, I do not crave cigarettes and it does not bother me to be around people who do smoke.

A pleasant surprise came when I went through my second puberty, aka menopause, I found I could eat chocolate again; now i try to make up for every day I could not eat it. Did find, however, it is not as good for me as it is to me, so found out I can again not eat it for health reasons. Did find out that I can eat an ounce or two and it not be unhealthy, and I love dark chocolate and try to tell me that this small amount is enough. So far, I am able to nibble on this small amount and be satisfied.

Have found with my faith increasing I am able to handle things like this more. I know God let me quit smoking; no doubt about it; He knew I would need that money for this grandchild we inheirted when he was 2 and is now 17; he is the light of our lives.
