  • I'm a teacher and received 8 boxes of chocolate, 1 mug of chocolate, and 1 candy bar from my students. I plan to regift it so I don't eat it. I'm not a big chocolate fan so that helps with temptations

  • I've made myself a plan to avoid temptation. I have a list of several activities, most including texting or calling a friend that is supportive to avoid doing something I know I shouldn't do.

Knowing myself I'll probably have a chocolate or two, feel sick, and give the rest to my roommates/boyfriend lol. I told the boyfriend I can't really handle sweets so hopefully he knows better than to get me anything like that, it's work that I'm worried about. I'm gonna try regifting anything I get, I think if I pick someone to give it to as soon as I get it I'll be less likely to give in and eat it.

Just think of your future Valentines days and forgo the sweets this year. :)

Great idea

I'm 4 years post-op so I do allow myself treats, but have to monitor myself carefully. My hubby is very supportive of my nutritional needs so no chocolate for me.

naturegirl, I do recall that avalanche of chocolate from years as a special care assistant. I used to eat it all!!! Can't image that now.

This is soo adorable. I love how your students spoiled you for Valentine's Day!!

I made protein peanut butter cups. Using chocolate protein shake, PB2. So good. JUST like a Reese's

I failed. Over the day I ate 2 cupcakes and 3 chocolate covered strawberries.
I wish I was a dumper.
I'm so disappointed in myself.

What stage are you at?

I'm 4 months out. I haven't had any issues sticking to my meal plan at all. Ugh. I failed so hard.

It's in the past now. Justice forward
And get right on track.

I treated myself to 4 oz Fairlife chocolate milk. Good protein source and satisfied the nagging chocolate desire.
