    We skip the candy-infested celebrations....after we had cold/flus directly following the candy events we decided to make it an annual camping event instead.....WAYYYY more fun, anyway.

    I can think of nothing I want to do less. Halloween is serious business in my home, not having candy is basically an act of blasphemy.

    What next, no pie on Thanksgiving? No cookies at Christmas? No wine for New Years? Nay I say; best to nip this awful train of thought in the bud here and now.

    THANK YOU... this is weight loss, not emotional suicide... im eating every damn piece of candy i can steal / sneak from my kids!

    NNNNOOOOO! I would love to say that I have the discipline, but I don't. Although I think Ginger Cake around the holidays is going to be harder. I am going to have candy, but I'm actually going to try making my own! I'm going to try and make Pomegranate and Orange Delight. Hopefully they will turn out right! But I always eat a lot less of sweets if I make it myself. Probably because I have to do all the dishes after I finish it. Baby steps I guess. I feel like it's at least in the right direction. But good luck to everyone! What a challenge.

    No. No. No. I love giving candy and huge chocolate candy bars to kids who knock on my door on Halloween. I look forward to it every year. Our neighborhood has been a fabulous neighborhood to go trick-or-treating in since I moved here twenty years ago. That's just not going to happen here.

    no way man

    I'm with you. Ain't gonna happen. Halloween night I'm eating my fair share (and then some) of fun size Almond Joys, Mounds, Nerds and possibly a lollipop (if there's a blue raspberry in one of the kid's goodie bags).

    And until the big day, I'm gonna eat candy corn till it comes out my ears. :D

    Oops! I started last week :blushing:

    I started as soon as Kroger had Cadbury screme eggs near the registers lol

    Yes! I just had one of these. They're full of green stuff that glows. This kind of genius should not be ignored!
  • Can anyone say Cheat Day Oct 31? If I eat so much candy that it all goes right through me, then it doesn't count right? All the candies in the world!

    No. In fact, I've been eating Halloween candy since I bought it a couple weeks ago.

    I do solemnly swear to not buy any candy for trick-or-treaters......








    But I will take my army of kids trick-or-treating for as long as they can stand it and they will share, they will share a.lot. especially peanut butter cups and twix and kit-kats and snickers and butterfingers and peppermint patties. I will be nice and let them have all the candy corn, black licorice, anything with coconut, and most things non-chocolate. :laugh: Seriously though, all candy goes into a community bowl once we get home.


    (BTW, we don't get trick-or-treaters so don't think I'm just mean, lol)

    I think a more appropiate challenge is on 10/31, everyone make a pact to only eat their calorie allowance completely in Candy for the day. Who is gonna start the thread?

    If by candy, you mean pizza, I'm in.

    Chocolate and coffee is what keeps me sane and others around me alive. I plan on having a little bit of the good stuff on Halloween.
