Giving up chocolate!

Hey !
 
So if you've read my last post you will know that I have written a bucket list and I did say that I want to start ticking things off it... Due to the fact I can't magic up hundreds of pounds to take myself away on Safari and I definitely can't become a size 8 over night I have decided to set my sights on a slightly more achievable thing on my list! It came down to either giving up chocolate for a month or become a vegetarian for a month. With all this 'horse meat posing as beef' in our ready meals and burgers I was definitely preferring to give up meat, but I wanted to make it fair and a bit more interesting so I flipped a coin. Heads; give up chocolate, Tails; give up meat...
 
Heads! Damn it!
 
As of tomorrow, 11th Feb I will be on a chocolate ban until (at least) 11th March! For anyone who knows me you will know just how difficult this will be for me. Not a day goes by I don't eat chocolate (disgusting I know) but I really do get cravings for the stuff! Today for instance I have eaten a handful of cadbury chocolate buttons left over from a bag opened yesterday and a chocolate pudding I had for dessert this evening!
 
I will of course let you know how I get on, wish me luck!

My 'Bucket List'

Heyyy
 
Tonight I was looking through files on my computer, having a bit of a clear out as you do and I found a file I named 'michelle'. I had absolutely no recollection of what this could be and my face lit up when I opened the file...it was my bucket list!! I first typed up the list about 2-3 years ago and having a quick look through it, it didn't take me long to find no.47 Pass my driving test ( which I passed 3 days ago!) :)
 
As much as writing a bucket list is amazing and I think everyone should have one I'm not naive and I understand that I'm being very optimistic in many of the things I have on my list but at the same time I have many things on there I think are very achievable and i WILL do!!
 
I've amended it a little and crossed out those I've done....but this is my list :)
 
If you have one I'd love to see!
 
P.s Apologies for the poor quality of the list...hope you can still read it though!
