Sunday:
Ate some champagne bubble candy before going to bed. Just felt like I wanted something sweet. A little treat!
Monday:
11:30am- Jolly Rancher candy. My mouth was dry.
3:30pm-Jolly Rancher candy. My daughter had one and I grabbed one too!
10:30pm- Champagne Bubble candy. Wanted something sweet! This was my dessert.
Tuesday:
3:00pm-Life saver wintergreen. One of my co workers keeps a bowl of them on his desk. I had sushi for lunch and wintergreen just sounded good!
I don't try to "fit" candy into my day. It is more if I feel like I want a little sweet to eat then I will eat it.
I actually feel happy after I eat the Champagne Bubble candy. I treated myself a little something after a long day. I think they taste great and are fun to eat. They are small and I don't need to eat a lot and I'm sure they are low in calories and possibly non fat which matters to me. I don't feel that gulity eating them. Physically I feel great after I eat them. No sugar rush or anything like that. I like they way they feel in my mouth.
The candy after the 3 day challenge did not replace anything. I still ate dessert if I wanted some. I really look at my candy as a little treat.
The reason candy is not a regular part of my day is the sugar factor and calories. I try not to eat a lot of sugar. I guess I would rather eat a dessert if I wanted something sweet. I like pies & cakes. I don't think candy will ever be a regular part of my day. Maybe if there was something nutritonally going on that might encourage me. Maybe a candy to help surpress my appetite?? Those would be the only reasons.
