Why did I nearly miss it? Well, I think that the main reason is that I just don't really think about chocolate anymore. It's a habit I have broken - and to be fair it wasn't hard to do. The hard part was in not drifting back into it in a thoughtless, careless moment.
Of course I have tried other things in the past to ditch the chocolate:
- Stopping on a memorable date such as a birthday
- Stopping a month before a memorable date
- Cutting up the chocolate into ridiculously tiny pieces
- Eating a 1lb of Thornton's misshapes in one go thinking that I would sicken myself ( I did feel sick but it didn't stop me!)
- Sharing
- Leaving all of my money at home so that I wouldn't be tempted to visit the shop on the way home ( great until I needed petrol)
And any or all of those might work for others, but in the end the thing that worked for me was exactly the same thing that I would use with a client: Hypnotherapy and EFT.
I'm now looking forward to making it a full year without chocolate, toffee and Haribos.
Roll on December 31st!
