I'm talking about the cinnamon candy, not mine! LOL.....I'm addicted to these stupid sweet candy. Argh. I just ate a huge package of them and tracked the calories (which is 10,000.....OK a slight exaggeration but still very high) WHy do I keep on sabotaging myself? I need to get my act together. Just had to vent to y'all! :) Off to workout hardcore tonight....SIGH.

    Sweetie, don't you have something else you can eat in place? Or, if you are really into the cinnamon scene, how about some cinnamon tea or cinnamon applesauce or sugar free cinnamon bears (or cubbies I think they are called).

    Hey, what about this place? http://www.candydirect.com/candy-types/sugar-free-candy

    Maybe there is something there that can replace what you like?

    Slice up an apple, sprinkle cinnamon/splenda on them, nuke them for a minute or so. And enjoy :)

    I agree with everyone's suggestions too! I find I feel so much better about myself if I try and find a healthier alternative to what I want to shove into my mouth (which is a lot of crap lol) Sometimes it's not a lot better but it's a step to retrainning my brain :D Good luck to you!!!!
