    Just posted something about this earlier. My students and I had a food talk, and I let the know that I don't eat veggies (at all), VERY VERY SELDOM eat candy, and will only eat ice cream out of a cone.......yes I just might be from another planet....lol

    I dont do fruit....I do not like candy... AND I can't get enough veggies...CAKE is my weakness... but honestly since I cut sugar out of my diet a few months back, Ive had maybe ONE craving and that was during menstruation

    I'm currently obsessed with the Snickers Peanut Butter Squares. I crave them pretty much, everyday.

    I'm not talking about the good chocolate squares or Truffles (although they are great too), but the "hard core" stuff that comes in bars, boxes and bags! Some of my former faves include: Good and Plenty, M&Ms, Cadbury Mini Eggs and Hershey Miniatures. What were your former vices? Fess up here (LOL) ...


    "Former"? "vice"? I'm sitting here eating my serving of 31 Licorice Snaps right now. I don't have a problem with a serving of candy as a treat. I can't swear off candy for the rest of my life (& that's how long I'll be doing this) so if I want it, I have it & I enjoy & savor every bite. And it's enough. Plus, I make sure I have earned it with my exercise calories so it is bought and paid for :) No guilt, no vice!

    Yesssssss... (sighs longingly)... candy is the cornerstone of my weight problem, and yet I still can't tell it goodbye. We are attempting to "just be friends", but that serotonin boost and the smooth sensual texture and taste of chocolate and the chewiness of caramel and the feeling of total relaxation... bliss.

    Oh I love candy/ice cream/treats of all sorts, it's my favorite food group. When my friends and I get together to stay up late and eat bad-for-you food sometimes I like to say, "My mom isn't here so I get to stay up all night and eat candy for dinner!"

    And then at the gym when I weigh myself I'm reminded that I'm 30 and probably shouldn't live on sugar:(

    I am currently battling a Cadbury Egg addiction. Thank goodness they only come out once a year and maybe that is what makes them extra appealing. Can't wait till Easter is over and they pull them from the shelves for another year. Every time I eat one I am overcome with guilt because I am so close to my goal and don't want to throw away all my hard work. Help! lol!

    Haribo Gummy Bears. I could sit and eat a bag ( or 2) of those in 10 minutes. This time of year it's those Damn PEEPS!!! Now I realize that both of my options are fat free, but I don't think that matters when you eat a case!!! :)

    Yes! I love CANDY! If I stay away from it for a while, once I have it, it tastes REAL sweet and I'm a little turned off by it. But when I have it a little bit at a time, it becomes a tease, then I want more of it! I have to control my sugar cravings by having sugar-free gum or fruit instead and by sticking to my word and saying NO.

    The Hershey chocolate eggs are my absolute fave at Easter time. I have already seen them about 10 times but haven't bought any yet. I crave them at 2 in the morning. Hopefully I can keep passing them by.. : ' )

    Why don't they sell more kinds of Cadbury candy bars in the U.S.? There are so many great ones in the UK... vending machines full of Cadbury... **swoon** Actually, maybe it's better that they don't sell them here.

    :) Guilty! Reese's peanut butter eggs are the best at Easter time. Butterfinger, almond snickers, almond joy. Guess I like the candy bars. Also... starburst jelly beans and twizzlers. And other gummies. :)
