Her role as a government agent Nikita Rai in "24" required her to remain fit as a fiddle, but now that the TV show is over, Mandira Bedi is going easy on her strict diet.

The actress relished chocolate after a long time.

`I'm eating sweet today (Monday) after more than six months. So I woke up at 7 a.m. and have systematically consumed six bars of chocolate already, before 7:30,` Mandira posted on microblogging site Monday morning.

The 41-year-old says she will now workout only next year now.

`Exercise and me...we'll be friends again in 2014,` she said.
