You can't have just one

This post is not about cats. This is about potato chips.

I like to explore what is available online. I came across this when I wanted to find out how others perceived potato chips.

I did not crave for chips before. I started to become a potato chips lover since 2006. It was around the most crazy time at work. I had lots of pressure and everyone was demanding. I wanted to deliver high quality work but I did not have enough time. So I made time by using my private time to work on some deliverables. I was a workaholic. Sunday was the best time for me to relax. I usually had a very long sleep. I would not wake up until 2pm. Life was crazy at that time. Pressure was with me almost all the time. I somehow started to indulge myself with potato chips. Pressure is certainly a catalyst for potato chips. We should have someone to do research on this correlation.

I was addicted to potato chips. I went to Safeway and just wanted to get potato chips. Not the small packages, I looked for the largest ones. I felt thrilled when I saw buy one get one free. Two at the same time. Wonderful.

Absolutely everyone in my group liked potato chips. So everyone came by my cube to enjoy some. Life was progressed with potato chip bags.

Then, I found out the downside of potato chips. Potato chips made me fat. Potato chips changed my figure. I had unwanted fat here and there. I scared. So, I started to quit potato chips. It was not easy. Hard to suppress the desire. But, for my figure's sake, I had to.

Am I successful? Kind of.
