    I stayed out of the candy bowl! The problem is I have a ton left! The trick will be staying out of it.

    Twix for me. I'm thinking of putting a note in the bowl that says "crack" because for me, candy is as addicting as crack (not that I've ever tried crack!).

    I was able to control it only one reeses peanut butter cup. I hid the bag out of sight out of mind. Plus I have a 2yr old that if she sees it she will try to devour it LOL!!!

    I tried to send it to my husband's office and he wouldn't take it! I don't have to work today, but will probably take some of it in tomorrow.

    I'm blessed in that I don't candy that much. No desire to dip into. My problem is pizza and beef jerky :-)

    Unfortunately, I DESTROYED too many bags of chips and Fun Size Nestle Crunch bars. It got ugly.

    I had tons left over, though, but am getting rid of it today. I'm taking it to our local food bank. If I kept it in the house, it would end badly.

    I didn't have candy at home, but my work friends were kind enough to bring in a giant bag. :grumble: Of course, I squirrled some away, we'll see how good I am at moderation!

    Reeses peanut buttercups, minis. I had 4. That is REALLY good for me! I could eat most of a bag in past years and not even think about it.
    It really did not bother me I check the serving size and calories before, I think this helped me enjoy each one and not just stuff it down and grab more.

    Thanks all for being here.

    I ended up eating 1 snickers mini, 1 reeses cup, and 1 fun size kit kat. It could have been MUCH worse.

    None. I didn't buy any until on the way home yesterday. I bought what my nephew loves, and at the end of the night, sent all left overs to him! I kept one for myself (Dove chocolate square), but so far, it's still in the bowl!

    1 fun-size Butterfinger last night. Today, one fun-size Heath. I'm really working on my moderation skills, so shooting for no more than one a day.

    I did!! 1 kit kat fun size, 1 100 grand fun size, 2 butterfinger mini's and 1 resee cup.

    Hey, I was still under my calories. Give me a break!!

    I let my 3 year old keep his favorites and donated the rest to his school. They have candy day on Wednesday. The best part was getting the candy. My son had a blast!

    I read an article yesterday that said kids on average will eat 6,000 extra calories from Halloween Candy. I certainly don't need that sugar high. I did sneak one, just one, bite size whoppers. And, it was worth it.
  • I did good on the candy, I started on one sucker, but my daughter came and stole it from me, and I saved enough calories to devour 3 whole slices of pizza! OMG it was awesome, I love pizza, wish I could have had a couple beers though, that would have made my night.

    We had between 400-500 trick or treaters last night. I bought 5 enormous bags of candy and gave the good stuff away first, By the end I was giving out handfuls of tootsie rolls just to get them out of the house. I set aside one mini snickers for myself and then stole a mini peppermint patty out of my daughter's bag. That's all I had and I was very proud of myself. Today, though, I'm strangely starving and I think the kids' candy is not safe.

    I told myself I wouldn't eat any candy, but two bottles of beer and two glasses of wine later, I ended up eating four mini tootsie rolls, a little box of milk duds, and two fun-sized kit kats. :( So tonight I'll be working extra hard to make up for it.
