NSV - Resisting Easter Candy

This mornings weight = 249.0  Back down .6 - yay!  I'll feel better when I hit at least 247.9 so I'm not teetering so close to the decade lines. 

Last evening I walked 2 miles, it was so windy and I just felt glad that I got 2 miles in. This evening I'm aiming for at least 2.5 miles.  I've been doing great with food and staying within my points.  I've also been doing great with not eating a morsel after dinner.

I've been having people come by my desk at work and drop off Easter candy to me.  I've been doing great at resisting; I've been giving it to one of the bosses to take home for his children.  As far as the peanut butter eggs that I made with my DD, we gave 95% of them away and I've only eaten 3 since we made them 4 days ago. I only allow myself to have one if I have enough points for the day.  I have only a couple left and I'm keeping them in the fridge in a sealed container, that way they're out of sight and I won't want to eat cold candy.  I'll treat myself with one on Easter and then the rest are going to be given away.  I just made them for the sake of tradition and doing something cozy with my daughter.  I'm so proud of myself for not giving into temptation.  In years past I would have chowed down on them and hit the holiday candy aisle in every store that I went in.  This year I've avoided the aisles altogether.  It's empowering.  I must keep the power with me.

  2. You're doing great. I'd find it hard to resist the treats you made. I think dyeing eggs is the better route for me, LOL.

  3. Good for you. I can't resist Easter candy--I firmly believe that anything with a hard candy shell that wears pastels is just better. Period. Sigh.
