Orange - ouch!
I couldn't tolerate either of those, they would send my figures into orbit.
My figures rise slightly when it's TOTM. I just accept this and growl a bit. I don't crave chocolate, but there again I never did. I just want to eat more, so have to be mindful and stay away from the fridge, but I think I am used to it, and basically just ride through now.
