Suck! I just want some candy!! Just venting.....GD has saved me from tremendous weight gain because I'd usually eat a ton of it so I guess I'll keep that in mind to make me feel better:( it's really hard though
I could not agree more!!!! I hid all the candy in a closet and don't plan on taking it out until the first trick or treater is ringing the bell. I loooove fall and pumpkin stuff so I bought my favorites and stuck them in the basement pantry. I plan on happily devouring them in December!
I hear ya, Halloween is big at my work so everyone has mini candy bars on their desk, they had a breakfast AND a lunch potluck yesterday. Thankfully we're going out of town tonight and not handing out candy, so there is none in our house. I'm dreading Christmas too.

I'm worried about thanksgiving. We will be a relatives and usually everybody skips breakfast to eat the big late lunch that day. I know being on insulin I just won't be able to do that and I will have to be super careful what I eat that day. Not looking forward to it.
We stay with family a lot over the holidays, and after three rounds of this I've learned to just bring my own food so that I know I always have something I can eat. I'll still have the big holiday meal, but I bring snack and breakfast options because skipping just isn't a option. Just a little cooler with string cheese, hard boiled eggs, etc. Be prepared and you should be fine

This is a really good idea. I am making my own low carb pumpkin soup and broccoli casserole because my ILs pretty much see Thanksgiving as a sugar explosion.
