OK - there's been a lot of talk about candy today! I know that after an evening of Trick-or-Treating with my kiddos our house will be filled with all kinds of sugary goodness.

HOWEVER, for the sake of this challenge, I'm going to ask you to step away from the candy dish and eat something "clean & healthy" instead! Then, tell us what good choices you're making throughout the day.

I've tried to give you lots of time to prepare mentally for this challenge. I'm certainly not telling you early so you can binge tonight. :-) We're just begining this journey together and if we start stong, we're going to finish even stronger!!

Let's do this!!!

    I was naughty on Monday when I bought the candy and ate 2 of the mini 3 musketeers (ok, so it's not that bad, but it could have been). I just love those!! However, I haven't had any since then. So, I think I will accept the challenge!! No candy for me. Awesome idea BTW :)

    I will accept the challenge. Don't get too many trick-or-treaters as I live in the country but needed to get some candy just in case. A bag of snickers is all I bought. I will send the bag with my hubby in the morning to keep in the tractor so I will not be tempted to eat them. Out of sight out of mind.

    I will accept this challenge. I know it will NOT be easy; but I know it will be worth it. We usually have a lot of trick-or-treaters & usually don't have any extra candy that we bought... but my son will have candy that he doesn't like that he will offer up. I will have to say no & find something else. If he has a lot I will bring it in to work for the guys, so it doesn't hang around our house too long :wink:

    I missed today's challenge as I only just joined but will definitely give Thursdays a go, it will be hard though as I'll be travelling for a few hours and its hard to find healthy snacks at the coach stations.

    I had a very stressful day today and I really, REALLY wanted to binge. I did have 3 pieces of candy, all "fun" sized or mini or whatever, but I logged everything and came out only 12 calories over my goal today. So it's a small victory! I will do better tomorrow. I now am confident that I can get through a bad day without food to comfort me.

    EDIT: I just realized that this was tomorrow's challenge and I actually did complete today's challenge (drinking water) :-) I've got this challenge tomorrow!

    I accept this challenge. I don't have any children so this should be easy right? No way - I love candy! I also live in a neighborhood that is very popular for tricker treaters. So, I decided this year that I was not going to participate and I went to the Y instead and worked out.

    Now - Thursday's challenge will be to not touch the "leftover" candy my co-workers bring to the office to share! I have done so well cutting out this sugar from my diet the past couple of weeks and I am not going to blow it now.

    I also accept this challenge. I went trick-or-treating with my grandbabies tonight and when we got home I sent all the candy I had in the house home with them :)
