Halloween Candy



Recommended Posts

Soooooooo...how are we all doing on the Halloween candy front? lol

I'm REALLY proud of myself so far! We've got entirely too much candy in this house waiting for trick or treaters, and I've only eaten ONE small piece of it. One of those little two bite kit kats. And I know I should technically be like OH NO! I SHOULDN'T BE EATING CANDY! But considering last year I would sit there and polish off half a bag all by myself...I think I've shown pretty good restraint! ^.^

No candy for me!! I've been sugar free since Aug 1st and I'm not going back! Besides, I know what all the candies taste like. I don't need them or want them in my life!!!

I plan to give all the leftovers to my students. Til then I will stick to my "candies": two caramel Calcium chews a day. Good enough for me!

For the last five years since living in this house, we haven't had ONE trick or treater. Most of the people on the block have grown children who have long since left the nest, and those with little kids, well......don't know what they do for Halloween. As for the neighborhood kids, we live in the hills, and I don't think they want to walk all the way up here.

So, THIS year, we both decided not to buy any candy. If by chance someone rings the bell, we're not going to answer it. All the past years, we're the ones who end up devouring the candy, and I tell my husband to take the rest to work. Not happening this year..... uh uh, nope.....not happening :mellow:

Oh I've already gotten into the Kit Kats. I knew buying it early was a mistake lol.

I'm not worried about it, being honest. I'll get back on track by Friday at the latest. *shrugs*

I ripped open the Kit-Kat bag tonight myself. The Halloween flavor and the white chocolate are good. Giving them all away tomorrow night. I swear :blink:

I waited until today to buy it and leftovers are going to work on Friday. I've decided to allow myself 2 pieces while we're handing out tomorrow so I don't have to feel sorry for myself and know to leave myself an extra 200 calories tomorrow so I don't exceed. And I'll crank up the treadmill tomorrow so I can be guilt free ????

I only buy Candy I hate. I hate most of them. Last year we had no one so this year no candy and lights out. Too bad I do buy me Godiva dark chocolate bark. I don't over do it.

Kit Kats are very yummy.

My wife had to put together 54 hostess bags for this week and there was tons of candy at our house, Before it would of been one in a hostess bag and one for me, one in the hostess bag and one for me, This year I ate a mall Kit Kat and half a snicker, I consider that pretty good for a chocoholic.

I also gave up sugar and candy long time ago, and in 5 years living here never had a kid asking for candy on halloween..so I am doing ok. Actually chocolate is not one of the sweets I would prefer, I am a cake person...but so far so good, haven't had any in months!

The chocolate is killing me. Went to a travel tradeshow convention and almost every vendor had halloween candy! Mainly Kit Kats. Now just going to this tradeshow I found out thst Kit Kats come in white chocolate as well as milk chocolate. If that wsn't bad enough I'm doing a seminar at sea to learn how to charter themed cruises. Well, the last two cruisesI I was on I lost weight without restriction. So, now that I have a green zone feeling I'm not worried about food. However, chocolate is another story. I won't be too tempted but I still love chocolate. Which reminds me, I'll be doing my cruise to lose in mid 2014. If you're interested let me know by personal messaging me. It would be nice to meet other peopleon this forum!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
