Chocolate Overdose
When I first came to America, I was fascinated with many things including chocolates. I was about 12 ½ years old and have never had chocolates before. My first encountered with chocolates was Babyruth. I asked my mom to buy me a package of Babyruth. It came with six bars I think. Anyway, on the way home from the grocery store, I ate all of the chocolate bars. Yes, they were that good. My stomach didn’t settle well with this indulgence. (Overdose maybe a better word.) I was so sick to my stomach. I didn’t touch another chocolate bar for a long long time. I guess one can call this “detachment from overdosing. ”
Do you remember the last time you completely detached from something you enjoy by overdosing it?

Yes, watching too much Chinese series movies. I watched so much that I can predict the outcome of them all … hahaha. One good thing did come out is I learn the many Chinese-Vietnamese terms like dai ca, su muoi, tau qua nham ma ….. lolz
Internet.
Tequilla.
Oh yes, one Celine Dion cd was played on my pc, stereo, friends’, roommates for 1 whole semester. I now develop a phobia of Celine Dion’s songs. I cringe everytime I hear her voice. lol…
I do this with chocolate and then I don’t eat it for months Judi
I did it with my favorite ice cream the other evening, Haagan Dazs, peanut butter and chocolate. I had been eating vegetarian for the first time in my life and really watching my calories so eating a quart of ice cream in one sitting really made me feel bad, but it sure tasted good going down. I have done this with so many things in my life. Balance, great word, unsure of the application though. lol

Afew years ago I did it with golf! We played three times a day for four days! It wore me out. I only played once on the fith day!
Yeah very well, avocado. I stopped eating it since I was 11 years old. I used to eat 6 a day, mashed them up, ice, and sugar. Yummilicious until I realized I couldn’t eat the last scoop, and that was it. No more avocado.
Wow…good question, haha. Umm….I really can’t think of it, even though I know there has been some. I guess I would say chocolate as well, any kind; around Easter or so, I usually eat a lot of it and get too sick (and disgusted, haha) by it to even want it until I find some really good chocolate a few months later. In fact, I would say that I haven’t had a significant amount of chocolate since around Easter. It’s a new tradition I guess, haha.
When I was quite little, I used to slip into my mother’s kitchen and steal sugar. One time the sugar bowl was empty, so a pulled my red wagon up to the cupboards and climbed onto the countertop so that I could get into the new bag of sugar that was stored on one of the upper shelves. I spilled it, of course. All over the counter and into the wagon. Mother emptied it all into the wagon, handed me a spoon and made me eat until my stomach hurt. I never stole sugar again.
