I’ll come clean – I really love Halloween candy. Everything from the gummy worms to the Almond Joy mini bars. Halloween marks the beginning of the calorie laden season that doesn’t come to an end until the New Year’s Resolution kicks in. Usually. This year I am making my resolution early! I have already dumped a ton of old candy sitting around from last year and my daughter only has a small stash over the fridge. I am making sure to journal everything that goes into my body (Thank You IPod iWatcher App), drinking more water and less wine, and am making an effort to vary my workouts. You wanna join me? Pinkie swear? This is such a tough time of the year, so lets make sure our resolve to stay healthy is strong and let’s do this together. I’ll make sure to keep you updated – I have got until 12/27 until I put on that bikini in Key West (special birthday trip) – so that is my major goal.

Kandice recently shared a great website with me that has all the calorie and WW Points information for candy. Check it out before you put that mini tootsie roll or peanut butter cup inside your body. Is it worth the extra burn effort? Halloween Candy Health Info. Just remember that Fun Size is not so fun coming off.

I, like most people, struggle with losing and keeping the weight off. It’s a daily battle. This year has been no different – I had a fantastic spring, but now I am paying for my lax summer and fall. I plan on taking the journey day by day and focus on the healthy habits that I know so well. I am even signing up for a 5K – something I haven’t done since last May!

OK – so off we go – We CAN make healthy choices this season and get back on track (stay on track). Good Luck and Take Care of You!
