Have not eaten chocolate since November 2008! Do have Sky and pets. Like a drink as well when I can afford it.

This is one of those subjects that we will never agree on.

Interesting to see if IVA's are still making an allowance for smoking - it's not allowed in BR.

WB - if I start on chocolate again I wouldn't stop and I'd wack the weight on again which I do not want to do.

I loved a smoke, gave up on no smoking day 1998. Even now occasionaly i get the whiff of one and i could still smoke it.
Couldnt afford to start again now though.
Not a big choccy fan, savoury more my bag, give a lump of cheese and a pork pie and i will show you my reflection in a mirror.

I gave up in 1996 and I'm the same as you OT - could 'bost' a fag sometimes!!!!!

I loved chocolate but never touch it now. Savoury I do like but not pork pie (hate the jelly!) love cheese though!

I don't eat many crisps either although I do like them! I've always hated jelly in anything savoury.

My big weakness is crackling on pork - I love it!!!

I love crisps, especially Pringles! I can't stand jelly on savoury food, and I also wouldn't eat a pizza with ham and pineapple - fruit and meat don't mix!

Unfortunately I love it all...chocolate, cheese, pork pies, any salt & vinegar crisps. I could go on with Love Hearts, Scotch eggs,caramel popcorn, sponge puddings and custard. It's no wonder im in Weight Watchers LOL!!
