    Can you even believe a single Cadbury creme egg is 150 calories??? It's so easy to eat like 10 of them without even thinking about it!!

    I can't believe it's only 150 calories...I could work 2-3 of those or Reese's eggs into my macros everyday...

    Yeah. And, I'm on a cut.

    I can fit anything in even when I'm cutting- sometimes I'd rather be hungry and have my whateverthing than eat my chicken and broccoli- and I'm okay with it.

    I would suggest never eating anything mindlessly. Weight control is so much easier if you are mindful of your food choices..

    Thanks for the link, it was nice info to keep in mind.

    I love cadbury creme eggs but I don't think I'm going to purchase any this week.

    I'm more of a chocolate lover than I am a jelly bean eater... jelly beans don't taste good. Some Easter candy is appealing while some isn't .

    Mmmm, frozen Reese's eggs.

    Actually I bought a bag of Whopper eggs last week and said that's my only Easter candy this year. Sad because I love Starburst jellybeans, but I can live without them.

    I must try them frozen!!!

    Easter is one of those holidays I'm kinda glad I don't celebrate...while I have the temptation of Cadbury eggs and other tasty candies, I don't have a big family dinner to contend with simultaneously :-)

    The real warning should be that you cannot roast Peeps. The outer sugar just burns and the rest of it melts into a pathetic puddle of despair.

    Why would you want to roast an adorable, innocent Peep? :cry:

    I'm planning on waiting for the day after Easter to grab up all of that sweet, sweet discount candy. I'll probably be able to make it stretch for a few days or so afterward, since I'm not going to be eating more than one or two servings at a time (if I can help it).

    I love the Cadbury eggs. But they make my teeth hurt too! So basically my
    Teeth know when to cut me off since my stomach doesn't haha

    Haha me too!!


    ETA: I laughed so hard at the picture of the Reese egg. "GEE!! I'll just save this extra 1/3 for tomorrow!!" :laugh:

    Candy lasts me SO much longer than it used to.

    So two is an easy fit!

    Just make sure you wait until 4/21 so that it's half price!

    They're usually gone by 4/21. Cadbury eggs are very hard to come by.

    You gotta know where to go. In my city, everything at the grocery stores and places like Kmart/Dollar General are all gone by the day of the holiday. But at the drug stores like Walgreen's or CVS, and at convenience stores, they still have plenty for several days.

    When Jesus exited the tomb he ate as many Cadbury Creme eggs as he wanted with no ill effects because of the hole in his side.

    Do it! It's also the only way we can keep my dad from eating any Reese's. Otherwise they'd be long gone!

    While on spring break I binged and ate an entire bag of jelly beans over the course of one day. Would you believe it was over 900 calories!?!?! OMG!!!!!!!! Last time I eat anything without looking at the label; I should have known but will learn from my mistake.
