So here's a fun thing that happened to me last night. I guess you could call it a NSV.

We were in Shop Rite and they have a HUGE chocolate section for Easter. Now I love Easter candy, especially the chocolate filled eggs. I was looking at the packages and thinking oh how delightful these will be. My boyfriend said "You know, you've been doing a very good job, and I know how you are with candy. It might also make you feel sick."
He was right, and I put the candy down. He didn't even buy any, and he is 10x worse with candy than I am. We both have a rampant sweet tooth.

As I started walking away, MY PANTS STARTED SLIDING DOWN.
I was like what the... It's like the weight loss gods were saying good job, now lets make your pants fall of to show you how far you've come!

    I would be so happy to walk away from chocolate (and most other things) if my pants could fall off. What a great NSV. You go girl!

    Good job with not buying the candy. Cadbury Mini Eggs and Peeps are a big weakness for me. I tell myself I am not buying any this year because I have a hard time eating them in moderation, I want to eat the whole thing at once

    Cadbury mini eggs are exactly what I was going to buy. However, I knew the bag would already have disappeared by today. I can't eat them in moderation. Put chocolate in front of me, and it's over. Therefore, I'll only eat them if they come in a tiny bag.

    Deny chocolate???? Are you crazy??? :happy: I'm looking at this as a life style change, not a diet. So I know that completely giving up chocolate is not feasible for me. I have cutback however such as only having one or two squares of my dark chocolate at a time instead of half a bar.

    My Easter downfall is the coconut cream eggs from Russell Stover. Pretty much everything else is available year round in some form except those nasty Cadbury creme eggs. So since it's once a year, I splurge, get a few and then keep them in the freezer. This way I have to really make sure that I want it since I have to wait for it to thaw out!

    Great job on the willpower!
