This is not breaking news but as the big day approaches it is important to discuss. There have been many expensive research studies to find out what we already know.

The number one reason women avoid having sex is because they "feel fat."

Here is something I want you to repeat to yourself over and over when you are feeling this way:

What he finds sexy is that a) you are naked and b) that you'd like to have sex with him.

Remember we see imaginative things flaws on our body that noone else sees. In study after study the majority of men prefer women with curves. And a moajority of men in these studies say that a friendly smile is the most attractive feature on a woman. Now, I don't know any of these men (who say the smile thing) but I am sure they are out there. And I am sure that to them, a friendly smile = someone who might be more likely to have sex with them.

And in talking to my male friend, confidence (not arrogence) is sexy. Boys like nakes bottoms and don't take the time to notice the little bits of cottage cheese in that area. So, be proud of your body and remember that he is damn lucky to have the chance to see it! I mean , seriously, is his body perfect? See how lucky he is??!

But just to help you get to that self acceptance at least on the big day...the day before drink lots of water, avoid the bloat foods (like we talked about) and get plenty of sleep the night before. This will help you feel your best...naked or not.

If you like dark chocolate, this is  the best medical news in ages. Studies in two prestigious scientific journals say dark chocolate -- but not white chocolate or milk chocolate -- is good for you.

Dark chocolate is a potent antioxidant and lowers high blood pressure (Antioxidants gobble up free radicals, destructive molecules that are implicated in heart disease and other ailments).

According to the study: "Our findings indicate that milk may interfere with the absorption of antioxidants from chocolate ... and may therefore negate the potential health benefits that can be derived from eating moderate amounts of dark chocolate."

So, Don't even think of washing it down with milk. And if health is your excuse for eating chocolate, remember the word "moderate" as you nibble. I am not giving you a  license to go on a chocolate binge. Eating more dark chocolate can help lower blood pressure -- if you've reached a certain age and have mild high blood pressure, say the researchers. But you have to balance the extra calories by eating less of other things.

So you may want to get your sweetie some chocolate that is on the dark side. Or perhaps you should hint that you would like some yourself. Or hell, just pick up a bar for yourself if you've got that chocolate craving.

Me, I am not a fan of the dark chocolate.

 Unless this cutie counts!

So I will just have to continue to eat other antioxidents. More on that another day!
