Giving up
So, as my 8th month of not eating chocolate draws to a close, my mind is drawn to next year. I really don’t know whether I’ll go back on chocolate in 2010. I definitely don’t see myself counting down the seconds until January 1st and then cramming as much Cadbury’s into my mouth as possible.
The thing about my chocolate habits was that the only real time I ate it was at parties, there was never much chocolate around the house anyway. Okay, this December 2008 post disagrees, even saying I’d love to be able to say that it’s all because of Christmas, but we both know it’d be an utter lie... Hm, how do I explain my way out of this one? :-)
Giving up things is fun, and I’d totally be interested in giving up. Chocolate was the only substance that warrants giving up; I don’t drink, smoke or engage in wanton drunken debauchery, no matter what I tweet.
What I should do is I should take something up now to give it up January 1st.

How about going back on chocolate but only really good chocolate with a high % of cocoa solids. With 70% or 85% cocoa solids chocolate you only eat a square or two. I don’t recommend you cram Cadbury’s into your face with gay abandon.
