    I had wayy less than the precious years! So That means im coming along right? Usually I would have eaten the whole bucket but I only had 4 pieces and was under calories. :)

    I had a mini hershey bar and one reeses peanut butter cup and only because they put out the good candy in the office for Halloween. Logged both and came in under calories so that means it's totally fine to eat candy yay! Anyway, chocolate is good for you in moderation.

    I ate doughnuts and candy and a cupcake.

    This has been a stellar week for me, and I plan on finishing strong. I planned on enjoying myself yesterday and I did.

    I saved myself 400 calories for it, and managed to stick to that limit :)
    Yes, 400 calories from pure chocolatey/sugary goodness is by no means healthy, but considering every year I usually binge on this wonderful, evil stuff, it was definitely progress! I knew it'd be more disastrous if I tried to deny myself :x I'm surprised how little 400 calories looks in candy though, those snack sizes are so deceiving! It's a wonder I don't weigh way more than I do, I used to eat so much of that stuff!

    I had some calories saved and my plan was to enjoy some treats within my calorie allowance...well that didn't happen, I lost control and ate way too much and went way over for the day! Oh well, back on track today. :ohwell:

    I incorporated an extra run into my week just so I could have the candy I logged...LOL I ended up with 2 fun size butterfingers, 2 fun size snicker with almonds, a sleeve of sixlets, and a caramel marshmallow pumpkin...and I was still 300 under for the day...

    I put the candy bar I was given at work in a coworker's mailbox. I had two fun size bars at home and sent the rest for my husband to take to work. Stayed under for the day. I'm going to pretend I don't know where my son has his little stash.
    I ate WAY more last year.
    Thank goodness we don't do potato chips for Halloween. ;)

    I skipped it. We don't technically celebrate it in Australia but there was a big thing in our town, everyone went trick or treating along the main st.

    But... isn't the candy part of halloween for kids? :huh:

    I was told growing up that you have kids so you can continue to get the candy! Shhh...LOL

    I logged an extra 3 miles yesterday so I could eat candy guilt-free. 2 mini snickers bars, a peanut butter cup, a snickers peanut butter square and a bite size salted nut roll. 457 calories of sweet goodness and I was still under by 509 calories. =)

    I ate and logged all of the Halloween candy I ate, went over calarie goal, but not as bad as it has been in past years. I was hoping to resist the temptation, but the small Charleston Chew bars kept calling my name. Today is a new day and month....trying to pick myself and get myself back on track.

    The force was not strong with me tonight. I did log each piece of candy I ate and stayed under my calories though. Glass half full lol

    HA HA

    My fave is the tootsie rolls.. My kids actually save them for me cause they know they are my favorites. I had 3.. not too shabby.

    Edit.. oh and I did not log... Just pretended like it never happened :) until now ofcorse:love:

    I did good, Only had one tootsie lollipop. Yes I logged it ... was still under calories for the day :) The leftover candy was brought to work as was some of my kids candy. They dont need quite that much and I'm sure wont even notice its missing.

    I am so extremely proud of myself...Halloween is my fav. holiday, but I had no candy or treats. I guess I didn't want to have a little something thenkeep going and going. I did eat a cupcake with frosting from a sample I baked to test for my upcoming birthday, but it was small.

    Years ago I would be at the store early on Nov. 1st to buy candy at 50% or 75% off. Those days are so over!

    We had a lot of callers and gave most of ours out but I did have some chocolate and wine and went over my calories, haven't counted yet but it should be by quite a bit. This doesn't scare me. I have a whole season of celebration coming up in November and December with anniversary, various birthdays and Christmas, so I am expecting to put some weight back on and then lose it again in 2014.

    I count the small victories lol! I didn't pig out like I did last year but I did eat a lot of candy, mostly my biggest weakness, dark chocolate mini hershey's. I was good and logged everything I binged on! Wish me luck on my weigh in come Monday morning!
