Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsFor the first time in over 70 years, I have eaten zero Halloween candy.
We've had 64 trick-or-treaters so far tonight and I handed out full-size bars until they ran out and I started on the mini-sized, giving two or three to each kid.
Now that we are down to the Butterfingers I'd hoarded out, I let my husband take over as I mourn their disappearance.
I am determined not to fall prey to my usual Halloween-to-Easter weight gain due to candy. I can't believe I'm able to resist a bowl of Butterfingers. Chewing gum is helping.
Just have one? No, it's like alcohol, I don't have an off-switch. Haven't drank in 15 years.

(32,091 posts)Im the exact same way. I dont dare even eat one. And sugar is so bad for me because it makes me gain weight like overnight! Holidays are the worst because theres always candy around and people give us homemade cookies and other stuff thats so hard to resist. Chewing gum is a great idea!
