Since my house is full of treats, candy, ice cream and brownies at the moment I thought I would create a support group for us.
My strategy is to not have the first bite of that junk. I tell myself it is totally disgusting.
If you have a tip please share it. Left over candy is tempting too so any help is appreciated.
I only bought one bag of trick or treat candy this year. The Daycare kiddies are getting trinkets and tattoos with 2 pieces of candy.
DH loves candy corn and peanuts mixed together so there is a huge container of that sitting across from my desk.  (Remember Cheryl  ) |

I can't think of one thing.......except self control......(sorry). I have a bag of small chocolate bars in my fridge.....I do some tutoring....so a little chocolate blackmail helps sometime (not very honourable......but it works)!!  Last week I thought that maybe one tiny little piece of choc wouldn't hurt.......but.....we all know it's not worth it!!!! Just think what all that sugar will do......poison. It's even harder for you because you're surrounded by sweet eating people. Not much help I know.....but a great big hug  x |

My office had a party with all kinds of goodies. I went over there for a few minutes to socialize, but didn't eat anything. It was easy to resist temptation because I'd already eaten and did not want to waste calories or carbs on sweets.  |

Use association. When you see the candy or think about it in a tempting way, instantly think of something gross and or painful. Dunno if that will work but it has kept me far away from Mayo low these many years. |
