Another one for the potato chip battle

[Duncan]

you think that's bad, alicia swore off bbt for her resolution... it's like taking crack away from a crack addict... her withdrawal is pretty vicious

[nature boy]

yeah, that's what i was thinking. lent maybe, but as a new year's resolution it seems drastic to just give something up like that.

[Duncan]

joel gave up chips for a whole year in 2009 i believe... i give him props for that.. if he can do it... i probably can't lol

[nature boy]

he did?
crazy.

[Duncan]

so i caved... it took me all of 17 days but i had ketchup chips last night... lol... so much for my resolution.. i think i'm gonna alter it and say i'll have max 1 bag a month lol

[nature boy]

lolz. just alter it to "i'll be careful with how many i eat".

[Duncan]

haha.. but that could mean anything!

oh, and alicia cheated with bbt the day before btw... lol... we're both weak

[nature boy]

exactly. enough to say that you're doing something, but not enough to actually do anything.

[Duncan]

haha, but i really do wanna do something... i'm just weak...

i think scaling back bit by bit is a good start.. maybe i should stop buying the super jumbo sized bags first lol

[se7entse7en]

I think the first step is to not walk down that aisle.
The final step would be trying to resist chips @ friends' places.

[nature boy]

yeah, it's crazy how chips has become its own aisle. what's next? instant noodle aisle?

it was very tough to go without chips for a year. so tough in fact, that even though i think i have probably developed a MSG allergy
(not totally sure its MSG, but it seems to be the case) i still eat chips today.
my advise is to just try to start it up again even if you failed on your first attempt. we won't always get things on our first try, especially with a challenge this quite tough.
