Confessions of a Chocoholic

So, two weeks down, and I've lost exactly 18.0 lbs., making my weight an exact 188.8lbs. All in spite of a little cheat that happened this weekend.:

Picture this: I'm hungry. Like, actually hungry. A wild candy bar appears! I used GOBBLE DOWN, and while it was super effective, I was somehwat disappointed with having a first major cheat (while I'm at it, let me also admit that I've used non-standard soap and chapstick). Luckily, it happened Sunday, and I've yet to see signs of it causing any impact on my progress. I am hopeful that it will sustain.

So, at 188.8lbs. I am a mere 13.8lbs away from victory! Though I set my original goal at 175lbs., if you think about us as being a little more than halfway done, I may make enough progress to get down to 170lbs.

And though victory will mean the modified diet for three weeks (or so) - which will include cheese, in case I wasn't thinking laborously about it every five seconds - I will still have to abstain from chocolate until March. Just in time to get fat again on all sorts of Easter candy.
