    i desperately wanted a cadbury egg the other day! So finally, my husband got one for me. It was 150 calories which I still had left. It was worth it IMO. I probably won't have another one until next year!

    The peanut butter eggs tried to jump into my cart at the grocery store!

    me too they are my all time fav and my hubby`s ..... so the rule is, it doesnt come into the house!
    glad the kids are too young yet to ask for it!

    The Cadbury mini-eggs are my husband's favorite. He has stocked up on them each year since we started dating in college 8 years ago. I'm honestly much more of a salty snack type person. I think I'll try doing what we've done with our other snacks and divvy out single serving portions into tiny ziplock bags so he can take them with him to work on occasion and eat them when he's still significantly under his calorie goal and feels he deserves a bit of a treat. They freeze great, so you can make them last a long time!

    The mini cream eggs are 40 calories each. Just sayin ;)

    Oooohhh, didn't know they made minis. That's an idea! :)

    I had almost forgotten about them, actually, and I'm glad you mentioned it because I had a chance to check the calorie count before I gobbled one up. The caramel-filled ones are pretty darned good, too, but I'm not sure half a second of yum (and that's all it would take) is worth 25 minutes of cardio, you know?

    Last year was reeeeeally bad for me and the eggs. Ask my husband. I ate them ALL.

    I *might* eat one (or two) everyday :) So worth the calories!

    A year ago I would have had a problem with them. But two broken teeth later the sugar in the makes me cry. I sure do miss them though :(

    Easter, Halloween, Christmas & Valentine's Day just kill me ~ I hate all of them! I simply have no willpower....everything (but peanut butter) calls my name!!:sad:

    I hate to say it, but it's going to be a free weekend for me, starting today (yep, I'm taking a 3 day-er:tongue: ). I'm entertaining and going to a brunch and the list goes on ~ I'm going to have some wine, chocolate and eggs benedict....not necessarily in that order lol. I'm not going to freak out and go hog wild, but I am going to enjoy myself and not stress out about counting calories, or I'll just feel too guilty that I go over my budget. I plan to have an extra long cardio day tomorrow, and I will sneak a run in on Sunday. Back to my meager 1200 cals on Monday!:happy:

    Have a great weekend, and don't beat yourself up if you have a Cadbury egg!:wink:

    I have been trying so hard to avoid the candy every time I'm at the store and so far haven't bought a single egg!!!! I did, however, buy my traditional bunny... and I'll eat it slowly over the next couple weeks! I think this will be the first year in at least 10 that I haven't had one (or a dozen) of those stinking eggs!!!!! Kinda proud of myself!

    Reeses peanut butter anything is calling my name. I am having one for Easter. One will not wreck everything. Sometimes giving into a craving really helps to get rid of it. One egg is okay....the whole package is not.

    I love them too! That is the only candy I was totally craving!! I bought a 4 pack. 2 are going into easter baskets. One to my brother for Easter and 1 for me. 150 Calories is worth it to splurge a little.

    I don't normally eat sweets (candy or cakes) but my friend made some brownies with extra walnuts and brought them to work. Brownies and glazed donuts are my weakness. lol I resisted at first and then...I....I was weak. Thankfully, she had them cut into little pieces, to which I learned that she did that for me (so sweet). I ate two of them but I power walked the long way to my bus stop after work, went to the grocery store to get some healthy foods for dinner and worked out. I feel a little less guilty lol

    Yes yes yes! I've soooooo been wanting one AND the Reese's eggs too! For this reason, I bought Easter baskets that were pre asembled and wrapped up so I can't get into it! LOL I am going to at least have 1!!!!!

    I bought one 99¢ bag and ate it. That was when the season first started. I'm a mini egg addict.i normally buy the huge package... But this year I'm not craving them.. And I'm glad. I'm a chocolate addict by natureand I think I may be beating it!

    I am fed up with Easter already, people keep giving me chocolate! Yes, I know I don't have to eat it, but i can't just throw it in the bin. Even if I break it into 25g portions it going to last me ages!
