    I used to love the stuff too! I just keep reminding myself how nasty and waxy it feels in my mouth. Make yourself hate it. You can do it!

    Um, don't buy it?!?!?!?!
  • I LOVE the idea of logging it as a veggie! Now, I could do that. You know, at some point, they actually became to sweet and fake tasting to me. I used to eat them at an alarming rate.
  • It's funny how far in advance we start to worry I'm worried about christmas candy.

    Mellow Cream Pumpkins.

    It's like candy corn on crack.
  • I honestly don't recommend this, but.................. one year, I ate myself sick on candy corn and haven't cared for it since. I can easily turn up my nose if it's around, and I never buy it.

    But so far, that hasn't worked with Ben and Jerry's Flourless Chocolate Cake. I've tried again and again...... :wink: :laugh:

    Candy corn is THE best Halloween candy there is.. :sad:
  • Me too! I love love love love candy corn. This isn't for everyone, but I am cold turkey off of sugary goods until I reach my goal weight. I know deprivation backfires for a lot of people, but as a recovering binge eater, I find saying no across the board is much easier than trying to eat just a little. Maybe consider cutting sweets altogether if that suits your personality. Good luck findong a strategy that will work for your goals!
  • mix it with equal parts of marshmallows and peanuts
    put it in snack sized glad bags
    let yourself have one bag per day
    I love the stuff as well

    I buy it and bring it to work and share. I eat a little bit, and the people I work with devour the rest. Don't open it until you are at work.

    Hmmm...special reasons like...

    It's Monday?

    Well chocolate candy bars...that is just in a category of its own! I don't even want to think about Halloween Candy. Luckily, I don't have kids or trick-or-treaters but I still get tempted to buy a bag for myself :wink: I can't help walking down the candy aisles at Target!

    Well, I'm not really a fan of candy corn but it's also caramel apple, apple pie and apple cinnamon doughnut holes season....rawr.
