Chocolate - The Enemy
Hi, my name is Kim and I'm a chocolate addict. Seriously. I have absolutely no control when it comes to chocolate, and it doesn't matter what form the chocolate is in. My drug of choice is brownies, cookies and cakes, but anything will do in a pinch. Currently, we have no less than ten # of chocolate sitting right outside of my office here at work, and I've indulged way too much on a daily basis...until today. I've decided to go cold turkey. I tried telling myself to just have 1 piece. 1 piece led to ten. Ten pieces leads to growing hips and I just have to put the kabosh on that.
I've promised myself to not eat ANY chocolate for at least today and then I'll tackle tomorrow when it arrives. It helps that Cathy brought in delicious pumpkin scones today. It eases the blow (since I have the will-power to eat a small portion since it isn't chocolate) and still allows for my sugar-high.
Cheer me on folks...I need your sponsorship for the twelve-step program that I'm on.

UPDATE - Friday 10/21/05:
I did it! I went an entire day without chocolate! I'm so proud of myself that I plan on doing it again today! Tomorrow I will fall off the wagon as we're going to Max and Erma's for lunch and we have a coupon for free chocolate chip cookies, which are mighty yummy. But 2 days without chocolate? That's unheard of in my world!

Be strong girl!
Ahh, who are we kidding? You're waiting on a kid! You are under stress! Attack that chocolate!
I know, I'm not being very helpful. But, realistic, no?
Good luck avoiding such a strong, wonderful, delicious & delightful drug. If it would help you, any piece you pick up, put in an envelope and mail it my way...I'll sacrifice myself to help you avoid the chocolate.
Good luck!
Your fellow chocolate addict.

Oh God, we really are long lost sisters!
Oh sweetie, I wish you luck.
I've tried giving it up every single day this week. And do you know how many days I managed to stick to it? NONE!!! Arghhhhh.
If you figure out how to avoid the deep dark velvety delicious food from the gods, please let me know. In the meantime, I'll be the one over here with my hand in the See's candy bag. ;-)
Good luck. The Chocolate Demon has been a monkey on my back for far too long. :-)I'm telling you, there ought to be a patch for this disease, or a government program or something, because giving up yummy, delicious, mouth watering chocolate ain't for wimps!! Crap...now I have to hit the vending machine. hee hee
