What to do with this damn easter basket?
I've been eating really badly lately, and today my dad made me a huge chocolate-filled easter basket! I'm a po' college student, so I can't throw away good free food, so I just tell myself that I'll eat it really slooooowlly, like one piece of candy a night, and make the basket last for like 3 weeks or something. However, this plan hasn't worked so far. I've already eaten a peep and a truffle egg, and that huge chocolate bunny looks soooo good...
What can I do? I can't throw away food.. and can't keep myself from eating it.. :-[

You could donate it to a food drive or a children's organization.
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
Well, that doesn't sound like much so far! Really, I've just thrown stuff away before. Yes, it hurts me (my mom was one of those "eat all your food, there are starving people in China" people), but I feel better the next day.
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
I threw away all the peeps just now.. They're one of those candies that I don't like, but will eat anyway for some reason.. Lol... So I managed to only eat the peep, the truffle egg, and a cadbury egg. The basket is now safely secured across my room and will not be touched again tonight.
Another idea I had was to make myself earn my chocolate, lol. Like, for every piece of chocolate I eat, I have to jump rope 100 times. :P
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
I like that idea. I'm huge on rewards, it was how I was brought up. (desert for homework, swimmimg for making my bed and putting away laundry...)
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
Take it to work and make the other girls fat. Just kidding...but seriously, something like that.
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
Personally, I would just polish it off and not buy chocolate or other treats for awhile...
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
I would put the chocolate in the freezer or refrigerator. That way it's not right out in plain sight, but you can have it once in a while as a treat. I do that with Hershey's Special Dark - I'll buy the huge bar and put it in the freezer and just break off a square every few days as a treat. Sometimes I forget it's even in there!

I think is the best idea just eat it and contuine with you normal healthy eating and exerise plan tommorw you will be fine you only get big if you make a habit out of eatng bad one day of eating bad won't change you just like one day of eating healthy won't make you thin.
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
I agree with Circe and Krchab. it's easter, dammit! Let loose!! :D
Just don't let loose too often...

lol ;D
Take out the ones you really like and share the rest.

I have a thought, but you're going to need five 1 gallon bottles of milk, an inflatable kiddie pool, and a video camera....
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
If you're a college student, there are probably some hungry boys around. I love being a college student because I always befriend some perenially hungry boys who help me deal with my leftovers and baking projects gone awry-but-not-inedible.

Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
you could eat a piece of candy in between breaks or after working a shift...burnin' calories, gainin' a few back :)
Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?

Re: What to do with this damn easter basket?
Share it with your schoolmates!
Ugh, Easter Candy. I did really well not eating any candy this Easter and then everyone decided to bring leftovers into the office today.
I had a chocolate protein shake and pretended it was a chocolate bunny...sniffle.

haha that's funny and so evil!! }:D
maybe, since ur a poor college student, you could trade w/ someone? lol this sounds retarded, but maybe some chick pms'ing really wants all that chocolate, and she's got lots of crap in her fridge/pantry. maybe you could trade?! lol .. or maybe i'm just stupid.
anyways, you should be able to have a piece of candy no matter what diet your on... everyone should have a sabbath :) just as long as it's *in moderation*
