Happy Easter, how did you do with food and candy???

I think I did well. I had a party yesterday and the only bad thing I ate was some chips. My friends and I are all trying to lose weight so we tried to keep it as healthy as we could. Easter (today) I had only 1 hurshey's kiss, 1, small bunny that comes in the bunny money mix, and a mini cadbery egg. I didn't know that they came that small, I was excited, LOL. I had ham, mashed potatoes, that I only ate 2 bites of, corn and 2 home made perogies, for dinner. For Breakfast, I had 3 small pieces of keilbase (I spelled that so wrong), 2 small pieces of ham, and 2 cinimon buns. Later on after dinner when people were eating pie, I had taco dip. It is low in carbs, lol.

All in all, I would have to say that I am proud of myself. I didn't finish my dinner and I only took small portions at breakfast so I wouldn't throw anything away, that drives my FIL nuts, LOL. I did great in the candy department because I could easily put away a ton of chocolate, and I stayed away from desert :biggrin1: .

How did everyone else do???

I did "ok". I ate some crackers w/brie. Potato's. I fell down with dessert... I ate a piece of cake with pineapple, sf vanilla and coolwhip.

The important thing is I didn't eat any candy! That was a major NSV ....

We'll see tomorrow when I get on the scale..

Today, I was good...a little ham, no potatoes, and no candy or dessert. But Thursday and Friday, while I was stuffing the eggs for the kids' Easter egg hunt, I ate probably a (total) cupful of M&Ms.

I am on a soft diet so I had a little macaroni and cheese, soft vegies and some frozen yogurt for dessert. I make a cheese cake to die for but resisted the temptation to "dive in." LOL.

9 jellybeans. They were sour, I couldn't resist. :) No other candy - never been much of a sweets person.

We did easter yesterday. My mom's side of the family is Greek so we eat a little differently than most when we get together. dinner was homemade gyros (I made it, so I know only fresh/unprocessed meats & good things were in it), 2 thin slices. Homemade hummus with feta on a whole grain Wasa cracker. Marinated, grilled leg of lamb. Desert was a few slices of fruit. My "downfall" was the fat-free covered mini-pretzels, although normally I could eat a whole bowl, and this year I had about 8 yesterday and about 6 today. Lots of decaf sun tea and Water.

I had one cadbury egg. I resoned that it melted in my mouth so it wouldn't hurt my newly placed band, and I'm taking in so few calories anyway on liquids, soo......

I was bad :) but it was so good

LOL waterlily! That's exactly what I told myself!

I did Great, well for the most part. I had a protien shake for breakfast followed by one Kryspy Kreme Donut, and 2 doughnut holes. for lunch my DH made us a picknic lunch with chese , chicken salad, hummas and toasted pita with one glass of wine. for dinner I had a protien smothie

late snack, I had anothe KK Dougnut and I Gave the other 6 to the neighbors!!

I did very good thanks to a fill about 2 weeks ago (I had no choice) so I contented myself with giving the goodies to my mom who loves those black jellybeans and a few other grown people who loves candy as well.

It's always a joy to see others who enjoy it so much.

I had a little ham, a little sweet potatos and some fresh green peas...i did have one small soft roll....but the problem area...cake...i made a pumpkin spice cake with pumpkin cream frosting...uhmmm..i did have a small piece. Not going to beat myself up...BB(before banding) I would have downed 1/2 the cake by now as well as stuffing myself with dinner.

My problem will start today. We don't celebrate holidays, so yesterday was easy. But all that unsold candy will be on clearance at the stores starting today...half-price Cadbury eggs are a REAL temptation!

I didn't eat any candy! Yay me! It was everywhere ay my Aunt's. Not to mention I watched her stand there & eat 1/2 a pecan pie while she was talking to everyone. She just kept nibbling. And she stays small. She's ADHD. She eats like crap.At my Grandms's I had a plate of food that took me 2 hours to finish. I had a piece of pork loin that was baked, a small spoon full (ssf) of chicken & dressing, a (ssf) of corn, a (ssf) of green beans, a (ssf) of asparagus & cheese & a (ssf) of lime jello salad. I wouldn't have eaten itall, but Grandma had worked hard cooking everything & I was the only one who showed up for dinner. She was so upset. You should see the leftovers she sent home with me! Good grief! Thank goodness Lonnie is back home!

I did really good, but only because I am on the liquid pre-op diet right now. But WOW was that Protein shake yummy! NOT!

Bad timing by having surgery so soon after a food related holiday... It was really hard to not indulge just one piece of the kid's candy! I swear that a chocolate bunny was calling my name all day just to torment me!!!

I had 2 slices of ham (cut off the honey baked crust and that practically killed me). I had a spoonfull of greenbeans and one deviled egg. I brought my candy into work today so I an watch everyone else eat it and let it stick to their butts! I am quite proud of myself.
