Introductions

Hi, I'm Laura and I'm a chocoholic.
I've abused chocolate for as long as I can remember. Everything from stealing it from my mom's pantry and hiding it in my closet so that I could sneak away and stuff my face to becoming angry when being denied or "cut off". All the stereotypical symptoms of an addict, I've got 'em.

I had a wake up call when I got engaged and instead of dropping inches I promptly expanded, due largely to the three pound bag of Hershey's nuggets (seriously) that my fiance brought into our house, foolishly trusting me to "exercise some self-control". Yeah right.

I've decided to start this blog as a sort of support group for people struggling with food addictions of any kind, not just chocolate. Heck, chocolate and sweets are just the tip of the iceberg for me. I also tend to crave fast food and anything made out of potatoes. At this point I'm not sharing any stats (i.e. current weight, goals, etc.) this is strictly a place for me (and anyone else who feels like participating) to air our struggles and triumphs throughout our journey to food sobriety.

I will get clean and take back control of my life! Let's do this!
