Halloween Candy



Recommended Posts

Anyone else like me sitting here on the internet instead of plowing into the "easy to go down.....Halloween candy" at their front door!?!

I love candy!! When we got home tonight, as always, my son and I poured all of his candy in the floor. We separate the chocolate, the really cool candy, the suckers, and the not so good candy. Now he has 4 neat little bags of candy. I know, it's a little obsessive. I didn't even eat one bite, but now that everyone is in bed and I am the only one up, I am having a hard time not eating a peice.

candy was everywhere at work today. It was hell. I'm on full fluids after surgery and between my pre-op and post-op diets, I haven't had much in the way of sugar recently.

I let two little chocolates from a small package dissolve in my mouth as a "treat". Some treat - I was sick as a pooch and high as a kite.

I licked the rest of them and threw them in the trash so that I wouldn't eat them. (Fearing that simply throwing them in my trash bin, in their package, wouldn't make them unpalatable enough)

I had a goal yesterday on Halloween... that goal was to not eat one thing sweet - candy, Cookies, cake - NOTHING...

My office was full of goodies, of course we had candy at home to give out..

I DID IT!! :whoo:I did not put one thing sweet in my mouth :clap2: YIPPY!

I had a little Almond Joy last night while handing out candy. It wasn't nearly as good as I remember. I did feel a little guilty but am proud of myself for staying away from the Peanut Butter cups!!

(Next year I'm buying candy I don't like - not sure why I didn't think of that this year. Old habits die hard I guess)<!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

Thank God we don't have Halloween or most of those brands (yet?)

Sounds like an obvious question but what specifically is candy? In Australia, I would divide sugar-laden junk food into three categories. Lollies (sweets?), chocolate and biscuits (or even better- chocolate biscuits).

I googled this but couldn't find an answer. Is a Snickers considered candy or is it called chocolate bar?

To me candy is.....lollipops; chocolate; candy bars (definitely Snickers!!!); jelly Beans....basically anything yummy and good!

I sent all our leftover candy to my husband's office....far out of my reach!!!!

I didn't have anything last night. I made my DH hand it out so I wouldn't even have to smell it. And I also sent some of the left overs to his work and took a bag to mine to be put on the front counter far, far, far away from my desk.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
