I mentioned on Sandi's blog that I would stay out of the Halloween candy if she would.
I do believe that many foods can be part of a sensible meal plan, but I also know that candy can be a trigger for some of us.
If a public declaration of your "candy intent" would be helpful, put it on this thread.
I declare that I will not have a single piece of Halloween candy tonight. I declare this because I want to exercise my control and restraint, because I am in charge of what goes in my mouth, and because I want to offer support to other 3FCers who may be choosing abstinence tonight.
If any of you would like to declare your intentions, please do. It may be zero candies, or five candies, but if a public declaration will help keep you in control of your consumption tonight, feel free to do so!
I will not have any Halloween candy today or tonight because the scale had moved down this morning and I dont want to jeopardize that! I am strong and can resist!
I know I won't have a hard time in the beginning tonight. Last year I got the good candy to hand out. One for them two for me, one for them three for me. You know how it goes. The longer the gap between kids the more I ate. This year I only bought the kinds of candy I don't like. So that part will be easy. The hard part will be when my kids come home and they have the good stuff. They will dig out the kinds they don't like but know I do. They will try to give me those. I think I'll just put them in a container and make my husband take them to work with him. He's a stick boy, he can handle it. The kids will have to keep the rest of their candy in their rooms this year. I don't even want to see it. It's way too easy to grab a handful as I pass by.
I am declaring to eat NO CANDY tonight! -- my scale was wavering between 238-237 this morning and I intend to see the lesser of the two in the next couple days!
No candy for me. I only bought Almond Joys and I wouldn't have touched them even on my worst, most bingeful day.
My poor husband does keep wandering around looking for the little Hershey's bars. I told him to go buy himself a Hershey bar but he said it wasn't the same as the little miniature halloween ones. It appears I'm not the only one in the family with food issues.
LOL! Almond Joys would be the one I would go for.....rooting through the kids' sacks of candy and having one....two.....three....oh, look, a Mounds....and a Twix....
Sneaky lil candy bars!!
I'm so glad you all are joining in this thread! And it doesn't have to be zero. If someone is planning 2 treats and that's it, that would be a fine declaration as well.
My post is going to be somewhat of a strange declaration. I declair that I will eat one mini snickers. I hope I follow through. I started this change last year at the begining of October. I did not have any candy last year. So I want one piece this year, BUT I doubt I will. I want one, I haven't had any candy in a year. But some how I think it wont be worth it to eat it. I know that sound strange. We'll see what happens. Good luck and stregth tonight! Jelly
I'm declaring my ONE candy bar limit. I've bought the candy bar, and I can't wait to savor it tonight for dessert. Oh, I'll just nibble on it all evening *^^* However, this is it. No leftover candy or extra candy shall I eat!

I'm one of the few people who doesn't like coconut, so Almond Joys & Mars are what I'm handing out to the kids. The office is a whole other series of temptations. But I found I've gotten weirdly picky since I made changes. I might be tempted if I see a Reeses peanut butter cup (my favorite), but even then, since I didn't buy/bring them in, I'd moderate consumption because I don't want to be known around the office as Reeses Snarf Face. And even still, I saw a minigoal on the scale this am, which is some pretty powerful motivation.
I won't have any - for no other reason than 1 can turn into a bag for me LOL so it's easier to avoid all together.
And I've discovered I like to "spend" my calorie-bucks differently now - i'd rather have a little more FOOD at supper instead of paring off some calories for a candy bar -- woah, who AM i??? what the??? heheheheh
hmmm this time last year i had a chocolate moustache and was surrounded by the empty wrappers of about 40 pieces of mini snickers LOL

that I would stay out of the Halloween candy if she would.
