  • im going to the movies any snack ideas???
  • I just went last night & we had dinner before the movie. We (dbf & I) did get a large frozen coke & I had a few sips.....oops. I would go for diet. What are you going to see? We saw "Wedding Crashers" Have fun!
  • we are taking the kids to see charlie and the chocolate factory but i really want to see wedding crashers! I hope i can resist the popcorn!!!
  • Take some nuts and cheese sticks! Have fun!
  • I think im gonna take some roasted chick peas and some sugar free hard candy!!! Thanks for all your help!
  • I'm going to see charlie and the chocolate factory too! i want to see wedding crashers as well, but i've been looking forward to this one, too. huge johnny depp fan!!!
  • ellis- I was thinking nuts and cheese and then kept reading and saw you wrote that! Great minds think a like! Can we have sf candy?
  • You can have up to 75 calories a day of SF candy but be careful of eating too much if your body has problems with too much sugar alcohols.
  • Yeah, watch it with some of those SF candies. You might find yourself in the washroom instead of watching the movie.
  • warning to those with a sweet tooth
    I never had a problem with the SF candy, but that's lucky me. Word to the wise: Don't go see charlie and the chocolate factory, not that the movie wasn't good, it was great, but I was having MAJOR SWEET CRAVINGS! Obviously I've only just begun phase 1 and I was about to freak out on some chocolate. If you have strong willpower though (and you love johnny depp <3), go for it! ^^
  • HAHAHA i agree I also got major chocolate cravings!! But the movie was awesome!!! And I didnt give in to those cravings!
  • Way 2 Go Ang! Ya see , planning ahead to deal with those tempting times pays off!
  • My dd and I went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on Sunday. My downfull is nachos (with extra cheese!). We decided to go out to lunch after the movie, so we each just got a pop. That's it, nothing else. It helped knowing that we were going straight to the restaurant immediatley afterwards.

    Have fun and enjoy! We certainly did.

  • Like someone said already - eat dinner before you go. Get some popcorn, because you know you can't resist. Get some Diet Coke too, to quench your sweet tooth. After the movie, be careful, as you'll probably get cravings. So have a snack or something handy for when you get home.
  • I want to go see Charlie and the Chocolate factory. Maybe I'll eat before I go, have some sugar free chocolate to nibble on-you know the ones with lots of sugar alcohols and then I'll be too busy to be concerned about sugar cravings. Think it will wait to trigger the intestinal disadvantage until after the movie?
