Oh, this Easter candy is killing me!!!

At this time of the year, the valentine's candy is still on sale! Up to 75 percent off, and those peanut butter cups come in valentine form too! I know what you mean about those being so irresistible! I make them myself, and to make them more healthy, I use ground flaxseed to add fiber and omega-3. To make them with less fat and calories, I use cocoa instead of chocolate chips.

I have the same problem with Cadbury Caramilk Eggs! I actually gave up chocolate for lent because I ate so many of them. When I purchased everything that was on my tab at work the other day there was a total of about 12 of these eggs that I had eaten in the past two weeks. I am not a very big fan of reeses peanut butter things, especially the peanut butter cups. When I was a little girl I ate three of them and then proceeded to get very very car sick. I have eaten perhaps one peanut butter cup since, and that was only because my sister made me one halloween. They were good! but... too many bad memories haha. I would say that I could eat the entire bin full of caramilk eggs. I eat a ton of caramilk bars too, well I did while i was working in a convenience store. I gained thirty pounds from the time I started working there to when i stopped.

My favorites are Peeps. I start buying them as soon as I see them on the shelves.

I can certainly understand that ... I eat about as much candy each week as the food in my meals ! I just have a high-metabolism so I burn it off quick. The thing I hate about holiday candy is you can only get certain candies a few weeks out of the year. Well, am sure you don't have much to work on with your diet so hopefully it isn't affecting things too much !

The one thing I've never been able to understand is why for every holiday does the candy come out in stores like 2 months early. I don't get it. I am the same wqy though, I buy something in the holiday candy isle every time without fail. I think they do it on purpose.

Cadbury is evil - pure evil!! I am a HUGE fan of CAdbury Creme Eggs and Mini Eggs AND I LOVE THE ORANGE CREME EGGS Must stay away - must stay away - must stay away they need to make junk food - healthy! LOL

I have not bought any Easter candy. I am having a hard time finishing off the Valentine candy. I do not crave it at all, but if someone gives it to me, I will eat it. I am more of the type that craves pizza, and cheeses.

Sorry to hear about your weakness. My favorite is marshellow egg. I will not buy any because I have to gobble all down in one bite I swear. I love them and will eat as much as possible. I was good with the valintine candy until the day after the holiday I both a small box of candy that had 4 pieces and it was half price. I saved both ways.

Well you have a way to go before it is actually Easter, so I am sure you will probably have lots more before then. I usually don't buy candy, but if someone brings in to the office, I don't mind endulging then. There is usually tons of it after the different holidays!

I was at the store yesterday and bought a whole pile of it for easter. Unfortunately a box has mysteriously disappeared last night and I fear the supply of goodies will diminish in the next few weeks. I hope to have something left to put out on Easter Morning. *Never mind looking at the wrappers under my bed, it wasn't me* Honest HAHAHA

Try and control yourself. Too much chocolate is not good for you. It puts on too much weight. NEW MOTTO :- Everything in moderation!!
