    Righto - I'm in too please. Chocolate - yum! Hardest part will be NOT buying some every day at work, or as I gas up the car, or as I buy a paper, or as I pick up some other groceries :(

    Desperately need to lose some weight for summer. Have started walking to work, but I'm finding that that just makes me want to eat more!

    Oh well - in for a penny, in for a pound!

  • I just wanted to say that every time my eyes glance at the title of this thread, I either read it as 'Chocolate Turkey Challenge' or 'Chocolate and Turkey Challenge' - makes me giggle every time!

    I'm on holiday as of next week for 2 weeks with chocoholic OH so will see how I get on with him around munching on Galaxy!


    I knew going on holiday with a chocoholic OH and friends would be a disaster not a little bar but a 1kg bar of chocolate that has lasted us a week and a half :o

    So October is a new month and starting tomorrow chocolate free, I will last for a month or more if it kills me.

    I've lasted six days without buying a cake of chocolate - awesome!! And I like having change in my purse still. Normally I wouldn't have any cos I would have bought . . . chocolate with it! :)

  • This was just too difficult for me to keep going. I am losing weight and not eating ridiculous amounts of chocolate, but I've done this by giving myself a small piece of chocolate each day. This way I deal with the craving but don't binge. It seems to be working, but I'm going to have to bow out of the Cold Turkey Challenge. :o

    Good Luck to the rest of you. :A
