I must admit, I've fallen off the wagon today so feel pretty crap I had almost a whole Easter egg and a bag of chips. How are you getting over your Easter chocolate cravings?

I only bought enough for each kid, so there are no extras. I don't really care for the sugar anyway.0

Well , i dont have any chocolate or candy in the house and no desserts here either so thats a win but, i did finish off some chips and will probably have more bread than i need with dinner but, its all good.0

We had our Easter dinner yesterday, which was mostly compatible (I eat LCHF) - ham, asparagus, small amount of sweet potato; did have a slice of apple pie, but, hey, it's a holiday. Had a good breakfast this morning (leftover ham and two hard boiled eggs). Planning leftovers of yesterday's dinner today, with the addition of some deviled eggs, so no problem there. Did have one Reese's peanut butter egg today, but that's all the candy I plan to have. The kids have a ton of candy, but I just look at it as "that's not mine". I have my own bar of very dark chocolate; I may have a couple squares of that tonight. So, all in all, not far off plan at all!0

Are a bit different than I normally do had some alchol opppsss but still within the my calories so not all bad0

I recognize that a day off plan with the family isn't a big deal. We tend to be more active on holidays anyway, so I just focus on not going wild and eating everything in sight.0

I live alone so it's easy to control it. I just don't buy anything that won't fit in calories that day or for next 2-3 days combined. And if I want something I'll just have something equally as good tasting. Why eat 200 grams of chocolate (up to 1000 calories in 200 grams here) when I can have a glass or two of chocolate milk (320 calories for two glasses)?0

Satan tries to tempt me to sin every day, not just Easter. I ignore him!0

I've been okay, I had a cider yesterday and a low calorie pub lunch. It is unusual for me to receive anything at Easter so it has been rather easy. I was tempted to buy myself some chocolate today but I made a blueberry sorbet instead.0
-
I made peanut butter protein balls for my sugar fix instead. I am staying away from candy like the plague.0

Didn't get to go home this weekend, so no temptations here.0
-
I make it fit, because Reese's Peanut Butter eggs.0

BWAHAHAHA!!!!! I'm coping with temptation just fine! It came along, it tempted, and I said, "Cool, let's do it!" I just ate my entire days worth of calories at brunch. entire. days. worth.
Guess I'll be walking the rest of the day... how many miles is 1300 calories?0 -

That's just reminded me of the most delicious mixed drink - chocolate milk with a shot or 2 of peppermint schnapps called most appropriately an Easter egg.

I was upset yesterday because I didn't go over at family dinner, when I'd planned on it, so I ate 350 calories of leftovers to balance my week. Today I had a mini chocolate bunny with my deviled eggs and don't plan to go over on dinner.0
-
I made vegan brownies but that was more to do with 'the moon being in that part of the sky' than easter haha0
-
I bought myself one of those, and one peanut butter egg. I'm making them fit.0 -
I'm eating all the things. Today is a feast day. I'm just trying not to be gluttonous.0
-
I'm eating. It's 1 day out of what is supposed to be a lifestyle change. Plus, I have the rest of the week to stay within my goals. I'm not having everything but I will enjoy some things, for example I'm having ice cream, but no cake.0
