    Not sure I understand the question. Have I eaten Halloween candy since the holiday? Sure. Is that different than eating a little piece of chocolate every day, which I also do? Not really...

    Only difference is that there is a better variety in my house now and I have to wait till my kids aren't looking to make sure I get my favorites out of their bags!

    No; no kids and I don't really get trick or treaters.

    I'm sure I'll eat Christmas cookies, though.

    Yes...although my 13 year old daughter intentionally gave out my favorite ones first just to spite me (she's 13...) I showed her...I just bought another bag (on sale even!)

    I had a few of the ones my kids didn't want. Mini Almond Joys and Butterfingers mostly.

    Yup, lots. My usual go to is dark chocolate or fruit so its a little bit of a change and definitely fun to take advantage during the years the kids are still little. I don't regret it and now I'm absolutely done wanting anything so sweet. A couple days a year of sweets and milk chocolate ain't gonna hurt as long as it fits and doesnt go on forever.

    Nope. Kids went Trick or Treating with Mom this year, and no trick or treaters in my apartment complex :) I second the Christmas cookie comment tho!

    Yeah. I had some stuff out of the candy bowl and am going through some sea salt candy corn. Pretty good!

    I gave as much of it away as I could but I kept back a few chocolate tootsie pops for my own nefarious purposes.

    Sure. I eat candy all the time though. Now I just have a really good excuse.

    Not really. I don't have kids or trick-or-treaters. I think I had a couple pieces at the office the week before Halloween. I find now if I eat more than one or two pieces of chocolate, it gets wayyy too sweet and I get the urge to drink a bunch of water. I used to gorge on that stuff, though!

    Normally I would be going to town on the Halloween candy the kids get, but since starting on mfp and doing really well I have only had 1 mini Twix and that was yesterday. Although I do have a Reese's peanut butter cup and a Butterfinger put to the side. lol

    I've had two pieces today, and two yesterday. I bought 10 bags of the stuff when it was 50% off the day after Halloween. Can't pass up a good deal on candy. Yumm yumm.

    Yep I've been eating Halloween candy the last month or so. Halloween was the only day I've eaten at maintenance in months.

    Last year, I did. This year, I did not! Very happy for me.

    We don't have Official Trick or Treating, with hours posted by the city or anything. The kids start coming when it begins getting dark and the teens would keep coming until midnight if you left the light on. When it starts turning into more teens than kiddos, I decide I'm done and dump the remainder into the last young kid's bag that comes along once I've decided to be done.

    That kid was so happy, lol. I suspect he'd have said "Thank you" but was speechless. He just stood there, looking into his bag. His jaw literally dropped, lol. He got like 25-30 pieces. I said "Happy Halloween!" and he just looked up at me in disbelief, like I was a Good Fairy or something.

    I'm glad to make that kid happy and I'm super-glad to not have candy around tempting me. :)
