Is anyone else worried about sticking with their diet with Easter approaching?

    No, I'll log what I eat and make it fit my weekly calories.

    No. I'm spending it a lone so I'll just eat what I normally do. If I wasn't, I'd make a big plate of salad/veg and meat for dinner and just eat all the candy I want all day.

    Yes! I keep seeing spiced jelly beans (or as I like to call them, "crack nuggets") and it's really hard to not pick up a bag, for, you know... the kids.

    Naw.. I'm bulking so it will be a free for all. But meh Easter meals are not really my favourite. Even if I was cutting it's one weekend, then I'd move on. If you can't handle/moderate all the candy give it away, freeze it or throw it out.

    Nope. We don't really celebrate it anyway. Ham, potatoes, and a vegetable. That's it.

    I fast on Good Friday so usually end up under for the week (although I wouldn't care if I didn't -- I usually end up over on Christmas week) despite Easter feasting. It's just one day and for us not crazy. (I'm hoping to plan my menu today -- lamb will be included.)

    Am I the only person who doesn't like Easter egg chocolate? I'd rather a piece of normal chocolate... Cheaper and tastes better. And available any day of the year!

    We don't eat that, I agree that it's not that great.

    We do have a nice breakfast and then a family dinner involving lamb and spring veg and other holiday-like touches plus some sweets (I think I'm going to make lemon-lavender cupcakes, although I often do a pie). I'm sure someone will bring something chocolate-y.

    If I do Easter Vigil mass on Saturday evening (usually do), they have a party after (it's around 10:30 or 11 pm) with lots of things that people are likely to have given up, but I never really eat a whole lot there, since I'm tired and it's not really usually things I find irresistible (if I drank that would be more of a temptation, but I don't).

    not really the big challenge will be not buying all the sweets when it goes on sale after Easter...
