Picketing the Cadbury Corporation. Anyone with me?



Recommended Posts

For the last 6 weeks, I've been trying my darndest to lose the last bit of weight I have left. Then the Easter candy came out. Those Cadbury eggs are my biggest downfall. I think over the last couple weeks, I've eaten about a lb of them.

I've got to sit down and write letter to Cadbury, explaining myself and my struggles. Maybe then they'll take them off the shelves. Do you think that will work? I didn't think so...

Looking forward to the week after Easter (not the day after, when all the Easter candy will be 50% off!)

Girl I am right there with you!!!

Cadbury eggs are my FAVORITE candy of all time. I seriously love them and used to look forward to Easter to have them all year long.

Last night my daughter bought a 5 pack of them and offered me one in the car. She's lucky I didn't push her out at a stop light. LOL

So far, I have resisted temptation (and I have no idea how) but I am growing weaker and weaker.

Being from England I grew up eating Cadburys Creme Eggs....I feel your pain...every time I see them it takes everything in me to resist...at Halloween in the UK you can get Cadburys Scream eggs which are basically the same only the middle is green and my sister sends me some every year...so this year I'm going to have to tell her no thank you! :)

I have found that trying to ignore chocolate makes me want it even more . Creme eggs were always one of my favourites although now I think they are a bit too sickly sweet. When I am craving chocolate I usually buy a Curly Wurly. They take a little bit longer to eat than just milk chocolate as they are chewy and they are pretty low in calories - somewhere between 80 - 100.

For me its the mini eggs. I find the cream ones revolting. I will get the minis for Easter day have my serving and send the rest back with my nephew to college.

I love both kinds of Cadbury eggs, but I used to eat those mini-eggs by the bag. Not the little bag, either. I'm not going near those things. They are the devil. I am planning to have one Cadbury Creme Egg. One.

My sister and I refer to the Cadbury mini eggs as Easter crack! I thought we were the only ones who couldn't resist!

Cadbury eggs and Reese's Peanut Butter eggs are my most favorite of all!!!! My husband brought home the Reese's ice cream eggs 3 nights ago! I seen them in the ice cream section of the store 2 days before and ran quickly from the aisle! Now the temptation is killing me! I had a dream last night that I got up and ate one! I had to check the garbage to see if there was a wrapper in there and I wasn't dreaming! No wrapper! Whew! I feel like telling the kids that they don't get supper unless they eat one first! Lol..

Easter candy is my most fav!!!!! I love it, used to look forward to it all year. I ate so many BIG bags of the mini eggs it was gross. But I also couldn't stop eating all the rest either I loved all Easter candy. This year I have done so good not one piece or even one shamrock shake!!! Maybe just on Easter this year ;)

I am glad I don't eat those. I use to eat the coconut cream eggs. Not this year! I do have dark chocolate in the house though.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
