The true evil of Halloween - candy

[*Lexie* 1,486]

I figured I'd have a few pieces of Halloween candy today only. I had a Snickers Peanut Butter and went to My Fitness Pal to log it and it's 130 freaking calories!! So not worth it, I'm not eating another bite.

I just decided to stay away from it. I bought crappy candy (at least crappy to me) to give out to kids this year so I wouldn't be tempted by the chocolate. I think this will be the first Halloween in my life where I don't have ONE piece of candy! If I'm closer to goal next Halloween, I may indulge in a fun size Snickers

No candy for me this year. Just made it through my first of two pizza parties today. This one also had a make-your-own ice cream Sunday bar. Ate lunch beforehand and wasn't tempted. dinner tonight is another pizza party. Gonna eat dinner before that one.... and bring along a Protein shake to "break open in case of emergency"!

There was all kinds of candy and donuts and Carmel apples at the office today. Drug reps bringing all kinds of crap. I didn't eat any. I will not eat Halloween candy either. Just not worth it to me. Good luck to everyone. It's cold and windy here in Michigan for the kids this year and it snowed earlier today. Yuck!

I have struggled with the candy tons for the last week. I wish in some ways that I had had gastric bypass so eating it would make me sick because it is so bad today, I can't even remember what candy I have eaten to log it. I feel like I am back where I started before surgery, out of control!

Halloween candy is evil ! I am on my pre-op diet and just got back from taking my boys trick or treating. Fortunately, we live in the major boonies so we do not get trick or treaters here. I didn't have any candy in my house to fight against. Now I think I am going to have the kids keep their candy bag upstairs just to keep the temptation out of sight. I can't walk up and down the stairs in my house so it would be safe there . We always go out to eat dinner on Halloween. We went to a local restaurant and I had a side salad no cheese, fat free dressing on the side and a bowl of Tomato basil Soup. I stayed on my pre op diet eating out which is an accomplishment!

Stay strong everyone! The few minutes of good taste isn't worth the calories or self recrimination after eating it!

This day has been a serious trap for me. I went way over my calorie limit. Definitely slider foods...yeah, I've sworn it off and getting back on the horse! Yeehaw :/

I have two boys and I ate two pieces of their candy and logged it in. Then I told them to hide their candy so I wouldn't steal any more. I don't trust myself! I am done with it. The two pieces were only because it was Halloween but no more!
