Well written. This story does a great job capturing the never-ending battle after each meal - should I or shouldn't I indulge. I enjoyed reading this. It reminded me of my internal "guilty pleasure" battle I have.

Yesss too true!! That happens to me all the time!! (although I don't have as much self control lol) I really liked the writing of it, but quick super minor thing you accidentally said 'sit us' instead of 'sit ups' just wanted to let you know! But other than that this was epic!
Also quick but important thing, your soul. Have you ever looked at a beautiful painting and thought that the painting created itself? No, of course not, the painting means there must be a creator. Now imagine every sunrise, sunset, mountain, atom in your body, all your family and friends. Can you imagine that making itself? No of course not there had to have been a God creating that. And no matter how good of a person you think you are, you have sinned against that God. But there is still hope for you, that's why Jesus died on the cross for you, yes you. Repent of your sins and trust in Jesus and he will replace your heart of stone for a heart of flesh. I'm not exactly the height of knowledge on the topic, so I would highly recommend that for more information you go to Living Waters on YouTube, please just watch one video and you won't regret it. Alright have a nice day, God bless!

Absolutely. Chocolate ice cream with a humongous topping of redi-whip. If I'm in the mood, some jimmies, maybe you call them sprinkles?
Then we're talking my language! I hope you can tell I enjoyed your post of guilty pleasure.
Good luck.
Cheers, May the cream be with you.

LOL, yep, been there, done that! You have given names to those little voices in the head. I had not thought of that. Thank you for entering this fun story into the contest. Well done. Terry.

I have one of those annoying little voices in my head too and it has a sweet tooth. As long as there is some yummy treat in the house it whispers to me until I finally yield. It's the only way to shut it up. I haven't yet found a way to muzzle it!

This is an amusing piece. My guilty pleasure is thin, vanilla Oreos. I tell my husband not to buy them, EVER. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Wonderful! And don't we all rate to that! Am with you all the way with your ice-cream treats but also that annoying battle inside your head, the Yin and Yang. A good amusing read which makes me smile. We need more of that. Many thanks Debbie

I can identify with this write as I love a little bit of chocolate and ice cream occasionally, but I try not to buy ice cream then I am not tempted and I buy low sugar chocolate! If I did not control the intake I would be fat! Ha ha ha, a fun post Harry, love Dolly x
