It’s Fit & Healthy Friday Tip time.
Today’s Tip: Healthy Halloween Tips
The way I see it, everything in moderation. Set aside a few of your favorite special treats for yourself and if you want a few day’s worth, separate some into baggies and put out one baggie a day on the counter (or on top of the fridge so you’re kiddos don’t steal it from you LOL).
If you’re set on not eating candy at all (kudos to you), go ahead and prepare yourself a fall favorite like a yummy apple (have you tried the honey crisp apple? oh my), baked pumpkin seeds, banana bread, etc.
I personally don’t buy the candy to hand out until Halloween day. I will grab a few pieces of my favorite and pack a goodie bag for Kev to take to work but I make sure to pass out all of the candy out before the end of the night.
I’ll keep it real though and tell you that my favorite candy has always been the Reese’s Peanut Butter cup. Oh it’s sinful isn’t it? Feel free to share your favorite candy too.
Oh and do you have any healthy Halloween tips to share?
Remember all things in moderation!
I made the mistake of buying candy yesterday. Then I went off the deep end: butterfingers are the devil. I also found some dark chocolate crunch minis – didn’t know they made them. I indulged, throwing myself further over my points for the day.
They are now secured in my son’s room where I can’t go because it is too messy to even find the floor.

moderation —YES! Also, eat healthy before the candy arrives so you won’t be feeling hunger on top of the temptation 😉

Linda,
I didn’t have the candy here all week and just bought it today however it’s so very tempting. I’m trying not to overdo it but I am enjoying what I have had so far LOL
Great tip, Annette.
Thanks for commenting ladies.
I didnt buy candy this year. I went with fruit snacks- because I don`t like them. lol
Checking in on ya Ang- You`ve come so far!! I remember when you first started- and here you are!
I`m back at it after a setback. Down 35 lbs since July, and going strong. That desk job really hurt me- but they put a gym in across the street from me so now I`m rocking.

Angie – I have tried emailing you a couple times this morning and they just bounce back.
Please let me know of an inexpensive (Super 8?) hotel/motel near you. I’m talking $75/night or less.
I think I’d drive down Saturday and then Sunday we could take the train to the city for the Oatmeal brunch.

As I read that post I kept thinking about having a Reese’s PB Cups – I knew I shouldn’t have bought a candy I liked for the kids at Halloween haha
