    I'd sooner have a No Countdown New Years.

    And I'm not buying any for trick or treaters. Any candy I buy is MINE.

    ^ lol you sound like my bf. (he hides candy that he steals from MY stash.. and of course my two year old finds/eats it. =karma) hahaha

    I may end up going over in calories between now and then....but candy and candy corn this time of year keep me sane, I am learning how to have one portion and be done.

    1. As long as my kids go trick or treating, I won't deprive myself. 2. If I have the extra calories, for sure I'll have some. Now if it's a Take 5.....I will do an extra workout or 2 to have those!! Yum!:happy:

    I'm going to open all of the wrappers so parents get mad and won't let their kids have any.

    I'm in, but only because I don't like candy :laugh: Our family runs one of the candy stations at our church's trunk n treat event every year and last year I only had one package of fun sized m&ms, even though I had pretty much limitless access to candy for three hours (not including the bags of candy my kids brought home from trick or treating too). This year we're helping out again and I may or may not snag some m&ms, but I'm not really big into those either. I much prefer salty/savory snacks.

    I'm doing the Whole Life Challenge. So sugar of any kind (honey, maple syrup, agave etc.) is out for me through Nov 2nd. I can do no candy.

    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.
