Looking for a buddy up for a no chocolate challenge week...
It has always been my downfall and the state of my diary today is shocking, I know it's not healthy but it's mostly chocolate!
If anyone else has this problem and fancies a 5 day no chocolate challenge, please add me.
It would be great to have some support..

    I'll do a substitute if it suits... No wine week?
    I usually have a glass of red every couple of days, it's empty calories I could do without :D

    Ha ha that's how I would usually feel about no chocolate but I have been eating x2 chocolate bars per day, it's getting out of control so it's time to knock it on the head (Well for 5 days at least)

    I'm in.
    I definitely need to cut down on chocolate - at the moment it seems to be every day multiple times.

    No chocolate for 5 days, I think I can do that. :sad: But it will have to start on Monday, I ate 5 pieces for lunch. And we have a couple bags of chocolate peanut clusters in the cabinet. Soooo good! Add me as a MFP buddy and we will keep each other ontrack. My diary is open.

    I am also a slav to the Freddo bar!! (Though eating two of those a day is really just one chocolate bar, you shouldn't feel to guilty!)

    I am willing to try this. Though there is a massive amount of biscuits left over from Biscuit Friday in out kitchen at work....this will be agony!

    I would do this, but I'm hosting a Halloween party this week. Ain't no way I'm making kahlua chocolate mousse-based worms in dirt and not eating them!

    So far so good, lets keep it up!

    Yeah but they are so addictive, 2 is a good day haha
    The place I used to work was like that, absolute nightmare because every Friday the whole office would bring food in, I would generally be over my my calorie goal by my 10 am morning break!

    Stay strong though..

    Good luck everyone!! I am most of the way through a self imposed no chocolate october (choctober haha) - and I have been winning so far! It was getting to the point where I wasnt logging chocolate for a week or two because I scarfed so much haha.
    I have noticed much easier to resist when I am committed to no chocolate - it helps that the boyfriend one upped me and took on the challenge of no chocolate OR lollies for october.

    Hell, im looking forward to november first!

    Haha the great thing is though it has broken the cravings a bit!

    Good luck!!

    Feel free to add me chocoholics. I feel you.
