Thought we could start a new thread that's just chit chat etc so we can support one another as MIL spouses/significant others! My husband is still deployed, but we're on the two month countdown so I'm trying to hit my training hard. Easter threw a curve ball in with sugary temptations but I'm holding my own against the siren song of the chocolate bunnies! How's everyone else doing these days?

Cheers!

    "Siren Song of Chocolate Bunnies". Love that. For me it's the chocolate peanut butter eggs. Why do they have to make a different one for every holiday??!!!

    OMG...Reese's peanut butter eggs (cups, minis, etc) are the DEVIL! Luckily my kiddos each had one in their basket and went for them right away. The rest of their basket is pretty much chocolate bunny and jelly beans, and thanks to me the jelly beans are almost history! LOL

    Holidays kill me. Thankfully all the 'candy' holidays are past us for a while!!

    I completely agree with the evil Reese's candy. They struck my house this weekend. I managed to just stick to two pieces of the mini ones. But it was hard not to eat more. Yes, I am thankful that the major "sweets" holidays are past and several months away. Hopefully I can meet my goal before they strike again in October.:-)

    October, November, December, February, April....five months in the year where the holidays center around candy and comfort food. It's no wonder we all stagger into summer with extra weight! At least we're thru it for the spring and summer ladies. Bring on the fresh fruit, veggies, and warm weather!!!

    All the candy gets me, but Chocolate is my FAV!! Sadly for me, it doesnt stop in April, Mothers Day, my little guys and daddy buys me chocolate, in June (my bday month) they like to bake me cupcakes, cookies, or a cake! Not to mention the summer is when there are tons of weddings, we have 3 in June, 1 in July, and 2 in August... Thats 6 slices of wedding cake! I only have 18 lbs to go to reach my goal weight, so i guess a little cheat here and there cant hurt! But isn't that how it starts, "oh, its just 1 slice" Everyday is a temptation for me somedays i pass, somedays i fail!!
