A few years ago my sister, Liz, and I went on a chocolate fast for 6 weeks. Liz and I were roommates at the time and we thought it would be a good idea to help us kick our chocolate addiction. Of course we also planned to end our chocolate fast with a chocolate feast! The feast was amazing! We invited several friends to join us in our feast. Since our table was pathetic we moved it out of the way, put a tablecloth on the floor and had a picnic in the living room. The menu included chocolate fondue with fruit, cheesecake, cookie dough, cinnamon bears and more goodies to dip, we had a peanut soup and salad to help cleanse the palate and we finished off with a Skor cake it all its ooey, gooey goodness.
Now 3 1/2 later, I am going back on a chocolate fast because I definitely have a major chocolate addiction that sabotages my efforts to lose the rest of the baby weight. So from the time I get back to Utah on Friday until Brigham comes home I will be abstaining from chocolate. My reward should I succeed in this momentous undertaking is the pasta maker attachment for my kitchenaid, and if Brigham's return flight stops over in the right location, some European chocolates.

Good Luck in this endeavor. I have a major chocolate addiction as well, but don't think I could be that successful in it.
I remember that chocolate feast with such fond memories. Good luck with your fast. I know I would never be able to withstand eating chocolate for that long again but I don't have the proper motivation either.
