I'm a chocoholic

Yep, that's right. I am a chocoholic. I don't mean that I like chocolate and I eat it occasionally. I mean that when I see chocolate, I attack. I don't just have one or two pieces, I have ten. It's hard for me to control myself around chocolate, and it's hard for me not to think about chocolate. 

This obsession with chocolate started at a young age, and ever since it's been quite the ride. I enjoy almost every kind of chocolate there is. My favourites happen to be: Godiva, Lindt (Lindor (SOOOO GOOOD)), See's, Guylian, Hershey Hugs, Smarties, Aero, Coffee Crisp, Kit Kat, Cadbury (especially Mini Eggs) and Maltesers, to just name a few. I go crazy when I am around these chocolates, and it just cannot be stopped.

One of the down sides to having this massive chocolate addiction is that I tend to break out a lot when I eat too much chocolate. Since this past weekend it was time for me to celebrate, I ate quite a lot of chocolate. And now I am paying for it. So I have told myself, after years of trying, to take a break. Not a huge one! I'm not giving up chocolate for good! Dear God I could not do that! But just for a week. I will not have chocolate for an entire week. This may not seem like a challenge to most people, but to me this is a huge obstacle. I received a lot of chocolate for my birthday, and it just stares at me when I am at my desk. So on Sunday, I will allow myself to have one piece of my birthday chocolate. This way hopefully I will be able to ration myself and to learn that everything is better in moderation. Wish me luck. 

If any of you chocoholics can relate to me, please comment! We can share our stories. 

Here are the pictures of the birthday chocolates that are sitting at my desk staring at me as I type this. The last one are cupcakes which I actually devoured on my birthday.

so good... 

mmm gimme, please.

I already ate these, and they were delicious.
