Extreme Veteran 579 | Subject: RE: Halloween candy I teach high school (television production class) we watch a movie, this year John Carpenter's "The Thing" and I give away peanut butter cups. They are by far my favorite candy and it is the only time of the year I will allow myself to indulge or else I would weight 20 lbs more than I do now.  |

Same here. On of the kids I coach is allergic to chocolate and he gave me all his Twix (my favorite). Since then it has been Twix after Twix in a delicious attempt to get rid of it so it won't be around calling me any more. Of course here at work people have brought in all their extra and there are boxes full of goodness laying around. |

| Pro 4189 Pittsburgh, my heart is in Glasgow | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Just spend more time outdoors running biking swimming, riding a unicycle, etc. Don't put the candy "out" in a jar or a bowl. Put it up and away so you're not tempted to grab a piece every time you walk by. My roommates havent been helping with the 'betes situation this week, theyve all got tons of candy and cookies from their families. But at least Superfuzz sent me sugar free chocolates from the best candy place on earth...Anderson's Candy in Baden, PA. |

| Elite 2468 Racine, WI | Subject: RE: Halloween candy thank you guys, I needed that! And I'm glad I'm not the only one with a theory that says I should eat it all so I can get rid of it sooner.... |

| molto veloce mama 9311 | Subject: RE: Halloween candy i was pretty good, but i did steal the peanut butter cups from the girls bags (they needed thinning out anyway - a 2 year really shouldn't have that much candy!). we didn't buy any candy this year until the last minute. i made bookmark kits with stickers and sticks, but then got some endangered species chocolates on saturday to add to the cauldren. i had one or two of those, and then the peanut butter cups. not having it in the house really helped. |

| Elite 2553 Tucson, AZ | Subject: RE: Halloween candy I took all my leftovers to work. We live in a big neighborhood and had 156 trick-or-treaters. The little kids and kids with good costumes got candy. The high school kids and kids wearing stupid stuff (T-shirt & jeans) got Carb-Boom. |
I can't eat Carb-Boom gels and had about 20 packets of them. Great way to get rid of most of them. | 2005-11-03 7:46 AM in reply to: #277062 |

| Extreme Veteran 694 New Haven, CT | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Well, I put my candy on the "honor system" after 8:00 so I could go to the gym. Um, yeah, leftovers were not a problem. Until I went to the store yesterday - pb cups 75% off because they're in orange foil? Score. |

| Expert 798 Potomac, Maryland | Subject: RE: Halloween candy After my marathon on Sunday I had a big piece of my son's leftover birthday cake. Halloween came and I promptly ate all of the peanut butter cups my kids collected (they don't like them) and a few Snickers and Kit-Kat bars. I will try to make this my first non-candy day since Haloween. |

| Master 2136 A Prairie Home | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Me too. Especially those in cutie little mini size. Psychologically I gave myself a free pass to have one of each kind. Basically, I have been eating 1 full size candy bar a day. |

| Expert 1135 Delano, MN | Subject: RE: Halloween candy My wife bought WAY TOO MUCH candy and sugar is my downfall. I have been begging for the candy to go somewhere else. I have to laugh at all of us going after the PB cups (may fav also). I like Bear's idea - if I eat it this week it won't be there next! Problem is I've picked up the 2 pounds I whittled off over the last moth  . |

| Pro 4292 Evanston, | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Please. Between what we had leftover at home, plus what's piled all around in heaps here at work, including the extra stash of Butterfingers my secretary keeps BEHIND her desk, to the usual stash of dark chocolate which I visit EVERY day in one collegue's office... it's a miracle I can still waddle. |

| Extreme Veteran 1491 northeast Ohio | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Dr Hammer - 2005-11-03 2:19 PM OK. I will be the person you all hate. Haven't had any halloween candy to speak of. Was tempted but held up. I would have to walk to another building to get and that just takes too much time. I'll join you. I haven't had any either, but that's because I don't have kids and I live out in the boonies where there are no trick o' treaters. BUT, I LOVE chocolate and usually have some kind of candy around the house. I just need a little bit of something after a meal. And I mean little. One Hershey Kiss will do the trick. My girlfriend thinks I'm nuts because I will buy a Snickers bar and cut it into 4 pieces so that it lasts me 4 days. By doing the all things in moderation routine, I eat candy almost every day and do not gain any weight. Diane |

| Master 1914 Finally north of the Mason-Dixon Line | Subject: RE: Halloween candy Yup, over did it on the candy this week - peanutbutter cups of course. it rained here so we got ZERO trick or treaters. In an effort to rid myself of the tempation I emailed friends and got addresses to send it all to soldiers in Iraq. Figure it's a reminder of home and also they can pass it out to children on patrols. Told some local friends and I now have literally 60+ pounds of candy in the garage - figure if I have to go out in the garage I won't be tempted to eat any in the middle of the night after nursing baby. everything goes in the mail tomorrow so the temptation will be gone.
