Oh chocolate – My dear chocolate. Where art thou?

I gained a few pounds over the sembreak. I binged on everything I could lay my hands on. That luscious cho-co-la-té was tempting, and I gave in to it. I was so disgusted to find that some of my clothes would not fit me anymore. I admit it, I’ve been hooked to chocolates and everything with chocolates. I find it hard to resist. I’ve become a certified addict. But now, I have been trying to bring my weight down with moderation, and I’ve gain positive results. But that layer, the bulge in my tummy, seems want to stay.  

This is no different from giving in on the sweet temptations of sin. Once you get a taste of it, you’ll crave for it. Because you say it’s fun, it gives you the thrill and excitement you’re looking for, it’s definitely not boring for you, and it’s nice to sneak out once in a while. Yet before you know it, it has already enslaved you. And when you finally decide to get things right, you can’t put the shattered, broken pieces back together.

So how do we prevent these short-term gains from giving us long-term pains? Control it. If we think we can’t get it out of our system, we better not have it, at first point. Resist the temptation. The evil forces has no power over you, you make your own choices. The decision is yours, and yours alone.
