Easter candy is stupid! Well, no, it's not the Easter candy's fault. But it's so tempting! I completely derailed yesterday. It just kept taunting me. "We're delicous! You know you want to eat us! The baby didn't cry when you ate chocolate yesterday! We're chocolate and you must have us!"
And those Peeps! Staring at me with their beady little eyes!!!!
"No!" I screamed "You belong to my children! I won't eat you!!" But I did.
Well, not the Peeps, cause I don't really like them that much, but the chocolates. I did eat some (several) of those. Then it was on to the chocolate chips because I felt bad about stealing candy from children. (Even though, technically I paid for it. See how easy it is to justify?)
At some point I became strong enough to realize I had no self-control so I threw out the chocolate chips so they wouldn't tempt me anymore.
And today I went and bought some low-cal treats because behavior modification is nearly impossible for me. (Must. Have. Treats.)
So I did better today.
And I've continued to exercise despite my food screw-ups.
I will prevail!

I like you attitude! I know what you mean. I took the kids candy and combined it so they would stop fighting over who stole what from whose baskets and then I just kept eating all the jelly beans out of the the big huge bag of candy. I am so guilty.
