I always enjoy pushing myself to try new things. I like to see how far I can push myself and my self control. To do this, I like to give up little things I enjoy or set goals like going running every day for a period, just to see if I can. So last year, for my New Years resolution, I decided to give up chololate for one whole year. Now some people might find this a simple request, but not me. I am a very avid baker (baking about 3 times a week) and I literally had chocolate every single day. So, to say that I was going to give it up for a whole year was a huge step for me!
Not only would I not be able to eat chocolate candies, but also practically everything I baked, everything everyone else bakes, Easter candies, Halloween candy, Christmas candy, and everything else which I sooo deeply loved. Not an easy task for anyone!
But..
I did it! One whole year without annnyyy chocolate! One whole year of lots of questions and crazy looks as I gave the explanation! One whole year of being tempted to lick the brownie bater spoon! One whole year of realizing that every resteraunt has practically no non-chocolate dessert options (except vanilla ice cream). It was a hard year, but I am soo glad that I prooved to myself, and to the many who were hesitant of my capabilities, that I COULD!
And lets just say, after a whole year of no chocolate, even the lowest grade chocolate tastes AMAZING!!!!
