YOU CAN DO IT

part of me wants to yell waaaaaa and the other part of me tells me its just another day but boy oh boy are those reese cups going to be hard to walk away from.  OMG grrrrrr help!  But I am going to really try to hang in there because I know the price I will pay and I will have my mantra of "I have worked too hard to get here"! The hardest part of this "holiday" is that it is one with candy and I used to do a triple somersault and eat a whole bag of reese cups but I am of the other mind of this is how I got to the point of being overweight bad eating habits and I am determined to not ever get there again. Oh and candy corn used to be a favorite too.  Linda stop!  Come on !  Cut it out!  You know better than that!

::Doing the no sugar dance::

Over 2 years out, and no sugar (at least on purpose) to date, and not going to start now!  Not even tempted by the crap...  hehe....  literally.  It does AWFUL things to me!

I DO however pledge not to indulge in the salty carb stuff that does call my name oh so very often!

No pretzles..  chips..  soy crisps..  nothing!

WOOT thanks Liz for this :)

I haven' had sugar since my RNY I am afraid that I will  either dump & get sick or not dump and be able to eat sugar and if that hapens I know I will be right baack where I was before, so not having it this long it doesnt enen tempt me not even my Reeses cups that I used to love so much especially frozen

Made it through work all day yesterday with not one piece of candy and the college had trick-or-treating for the daycare across the street.  All the little kids came around dressed up to our offices - it was a blast.  I planned ahead and kept my office door shut, but went in and passed out candy with my boss in her office.  No need to keep that stuff around my desk.

Then my husband and I decided that last night we'd rather give up seeing the little kids dressed up in our neighborhood than have the stuff laying around our house. So we were mean and left our lights off during the trick-or-treating time.  One mom and her 2 boys came to our door anyway (breaking Halloween etiquette according to my husband because the lights were off) and rang the bell.  I went to the door and explained that we didn't have candy this year and the mom chewed me out!  It was so insane.  She was like "HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE CANDY??? It's HALLOWEEN!"  I just said sorry and shut the door.

Proud that we stuck to it and made it through though.  We're going to paint and carve pumpkins at our house today to start a new tradition with the holiday that doesn't involve food!

I'm in... instead... I will be having a protein shake.  something pumpkinish

confessing... I've been eating halloween candy like it's goin out of style...it's all over at school and I stole from my nephew.

i told myself yesterday would be the end of it, but i ate tons today.

oh well...there's always tomorrow????

There is TODAY!!! No more candy! You can do it!!
