I haven't had one in 3 1/2 weeks...since The Biggest Loser started and I re-focused my attention on losing weight...and as of today I've lost 10 pounds! :) Good luck resisting those kisses when they resurface, they'd be hard for me to resist too.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01883718777962640748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-15406803094924491012007-10-05T21:41:00.000-07:002007-10-05T21:41:00.000-07:00I thought the exact same thing!

But then, ah...yes....the lesson was made. But really, you know they'd burn it off in like thirty seconds of squats. Their muscles are practically jumping out of their skin.<BR/><BR/>O.K...now onto temptation. Pretty much anything with chocolate is a trigger food for me. If only my memory could truly forget where I hide things. No...it's like a steel trap when it comes to things like m&ms.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11107964636020955468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-8227879066341177852007-10-05T07:47:00.000-07:002007-10-05T07:47:00.000-07:00I think I could pass up a cupcake, but if it had b...I think I could pass up a cupcake, but if it had been a sugar cookie with frosting...<BR/><BR/>I hide things too, but not from myself, from my kids!

I immediately chucked them and spent the next 4 days cursing myself for throwing them out because I had no chocolate in the house and was pmsing! And yet when I told mom about it today I told her I was mad that I had thrown them out but that was exactly why I had thrown them out - so I couldn't binge out on them. And it was all worth it when I weighed in this morning at 176 lbs - 44 lbs down in 18 weeks! p.s. I'm so glad to be back on line and to be able to be here again!KellyLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12554052098483507399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-50217371508724888542007-10-04T15:11:00.000-07:002007-10-04T15:11:00.000-07:00Yesterday my husband was painting a wall "fudge tr...Yesterday my husband was painting a wall "fudge truffle". I swear it looked just like he was painting on melted milk chocolate. My walking partner walked in right after that and she immediately noticed the similarities between the paint and chocolate and pretended to lick the wet paint.<BR/><BR/>We thought about marketing paint that when dried, you could lick and get the taste of chocolate on your tongue. Kind of like willie wonka's wallpaper. Of course it would be calorie free. Can I write you down for an advance order?Trixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09750436494546577512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-63378188625733925882007-10-04T15:02:00.000-07:002007-10-04T15:02:00.000-07:00I was wondering if they were going to not eat them...I was wondering if they were going to not eat them out of principle, or eat part of them to show them that you can have a treat once in a while. I was glad to see that they didn't give in.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, I'm not good at forgetting where chocolate is.....<BR/><BR/>If I was one of the trainers, saying no in front of everyone would be no problem. The problem would be me sneaking into the room alone later! Hmmm....was anyone keeping track of Bob 24/7? :D<BR/><BR/>BTW, I'm planning right now for 28 days from now!!!!!

No way, it's not worth it. It wasn't even a question. I don't even think Bob was serious about it once he realized the others weren't going to do it. I want to be like that.

So true!! In all aspects of life.<BR/><BR/>I succeeded so well in my attempt to hid kisses (yes your not the only one) from myself that I just barely found the mint kisses I hid at Christmas Time 2006. A whole BAG!! Unopened! Which sadly meant they were still fresh and tasty and.. .hold on let me wipe the chocolate from the corner of my mouth....C Hansenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10197882776552510342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-18352549938280539562007-10-04T09:10:00.000-07:002007-10-04T09:10:00.000-07:00I'm better off if the temptation is not in the hou...I'm better off if the temptation is not in the house--but sometime I can't help it, it's here. I know I can't even have a bite or a taste, because for me it's never enough. (I remember one time hiding chocolate chip cookies in a little safe that belonged to one of my kids and then working like crazy to "crack" the safe)<BR/><BR/>As always, great job. Love the "use the times I feel strong to protect the times I feel weak".

That is another story.<BR/>I should just not go to the store. I am always a sucker for a good deal, and when I get depressed (which is frequently) I stock up on candy. This time of the year is horrible because of the Halloween candy. Once I have bought it, it seems like such a waste of money not to eat it. The key for me is not to buy it in the first place.Heffalumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166154112206680302noreply@blogger.com
