Some day, I will be able to live my life without looking at everything through the lens of weight, but today is not the day. Halloween has always meant two things to me: 1. The chance to pretend to be someone else for a day and 2. the chance to eat ludicrous amounts of candy.
As far as consuming massive quantities of of candy is concerned, that should not really be an option for me now. (Especially since I broke up with Jack!) I have tried not to eat candy with the reckless abandon I used to. That said, by the time we shut out the porch light, I may have eaten almost as much chocolate as I handed out. Uggg! I could have taken steps to avoid such massive transgressions. I especially like MizFit's suggestion to indulge planfully. I could have tried to find candy that I actually wouldn't eat. But I didn't do any of that; I pigged out.
Thankfully, tomorrow's a new day and the start of a new month. It's a chance for a fresh start and the formation of new goals.
I hope you had a happy Halloween and took advantage of the chance to be someone else and make other people smile today!

I only ate one piece of candy. The problem was before the trick or treating. We decided to order pizza....haven't done that since March! The special was a large pizza, breadsticks, and a dessert pizza. I had one piece of each! This was a huge carb shock to my body. I could feel it almost immediately. I felt a little better since we walked about an hour and a half but still! I thought it would be a nice treat for the family......and it was! BUT, my homemade pizza carries way less guilt. Hubby acted like he died and went to heaven!
