What I am giving up for the New Year

I was reading a fellow Triathlete's blog www.trigeekdreams.com and he blogged about giving up something for the New Year. He is giving up fried foods and Tortilla Chips, so that got me thinking about what I should give up for the New Year. I was thinking about Veggies, but that would be too easy, so I decided to give up chips. I should probably give up Candy too, but that is too hard right now and I cannot make myself give up both in one year. So, I Melissa Black, hereby declare that I am giving up Chips this year, 2006. If I am at your house please do not offer me chips. If I am bringing something to your party please don't ask me to bring chips and if I am throwing a party, please do not let me buy chips. :-) I know this will probably be hard at first, but the more I do it the less I will be wanting them. Thanks Kahuna for the challenge.

Sounds like Lent to me. Good luck with your life sans chips. I did it with Soda and now I don't even miss it one bit.

Yay! Melissa you are so funny! I promise I will not offer you one chip if you don't offer me one Snickers bar. :)

Oooh, that will be tough. I'm pretty sure you have what it takes to beat this chip thing though. How about soda, wanna give that up too. I gave it up one day and haven't really looked back since. I rarely have a soda and I rarely crave one. I didn't realize it but soda is terrible for you. All those sugar calories, phew. Glad I don't drink it anymore. Good luck with the chip thing, you're gonna rock it. Like all addicts, you must tell us if you have a moment of weakness. This makes you accountable to the other bloggers and it will help you reach your goal. Sound like a plan? Take care and good luck. Be strong!
