So want to put down my major accomplishment for today. I avoided the easter candy in the office kitchen. This is the story... there's been a big bag of easter candy in the kitchen for days. I'm not crazy for chocolate so I found it fairly easy to avoid the candy. But today, oooooh today I saw that they weren't solid chocolate eggs. They were giant sized whopper candies in the shape of easter eggs for the season. I'm a total sucker for the chocolate covered, crunchy malty goodness of the whoppers. The moment I realized they were brightly colored easter egged whoppers it became a challenge to avoid staring at the bag every time i entered the kitchen.

But my friends, I did it. I avoided the whoppers! Will I be able to do it tomorrow? Time will only tell. I am pretty determined. But I'm not a fan of the "will power" method of dieting. I will be putting a bowl or something to cover it tomorrow. I had to do it today when I entered the kitchen to get water. It was like the bag was crying out for me. :) Beware of the innocent looking Whopper candies!
 
wow fantastic that you gave them a miss.

Perhaps you can cover them or secretly move them somewhere out of view?

Maybe put some fruit next to it?
 
woohoo! good for you! :)

i avoided valentine candy, so easter is my next battle!

you should be so proud of yourself!!!
 
Great job!

And if by chance, you do give in and have one, don't beat yourself up over it or anything. It's alright to indulge a little, but if you feel like you can't stop at 1 then stay away! hehe

Goodluck!
 
Way to dodge the chocolate!!;) I am proud of you! I am not a fan of that will power dieting either. We keep things in our office for people to snack on but since I am one of the ones who goes shopping I can pick out things I don't like!! That helps alot!! I would definetely try hiding the candy from easy view and replace it with some fruit as suggested above!! Good luck avoiding it today!!
 
Wow congrats on not falling victm to the woppers! I have to make 3 easter
baskets and I am not buying the cany until last minute lol! The one that temps me
every year has to be those reessee peanutbutter eggs geeesh!! Tammy:)
 
Well done! It can be so hard to resist fattening food when its left lying around the place. I try to keep repeating some motivational sayings in my head, picked them up from a thread on here lol.
Good luck tomorrow!
 
LOL.

I am exactly the same, I find it torture having chocolates that I like on display. (I never used to be a chocolate fan really, but since I now eat only healthy stuff pretty much everything looks good and I could KILL for chocolate ALL day lol.)

Anything tasty has to go in the fridge of preferably the cupboard here. :D
 
congratulations! today i ate a tub of icecream :(!!
wish i had your will power.
init
peace out
