Evil evil killer Jelly Beans... grr

Okay, has anyone else been struggling with the dreaded Easter time jelly beans?
And on top of it they are STARBURST brand! YUMMO!!!

OMG! They are all over our dept in bowls, baskets, canisters.. and I've been popping them like the candy they are.. DAMN EVIL THINGS!!!

I need to keep myself strong and resist their delightfully bright color and sweetness...
I already feel icky from eating too much sugar today now.. BLECH 
Haven't dumped because of course I've only eaten 5-10 at a time, andonly about once an hour now for the last 3 hrs..

 

I dread jelly bean season.  Even the plain ol' Brach's are the devil to me.  So far I have stayed away from them but I have had other evils in my house, like the peanut butter filled taffy that is made in my hometown in CA.  Mom brought it for us when she came out to visit.  Good luck fighting the jelly bean deamons!

Yah my other evil right now is the mini Cadbury eggs.. I dump from a big ones but I can eat a mini one.. BAAAAD!!!! I run away from those the best I can now...

(yes I succumed to the evil beast this past weekend and I knew the dump was going to be bad, and it was but I still ate it anyway.. stupid me!!)

My husband calls those kinds of treats "dumpworthy"

I'm no angel, but sometimes - I'm actually THANKFUL that I was diabetic!  Because when I bother to read the "nutrition" label on those things and see the astronomical number of carbs in a ridiculously small serving?  I put them down and walk away.

Now if I could just remember to do that every time I reach for a carb....

The only way I can sometimes stop myself from eating candy like that is to think, they're not wrapped and I don't know how many peoples hands have been in there. Gross.

I once heard free popcorn at bars is 10% urine; from people going to the bathroom not washing there hands and then grabbing popcorn. Since I heard that I haven't been able to eat it!

yup, evil jelly beans....thank goodness I do eventually dump from them!  let me tell ya, though-the WORST I have ever been through was from the doggone russell stover sugarless jelly beans-I ate a bunch, thinking sugar free would mean ok for me----WRONG.  I had the WORST stomachache and gas EVER-my kids said they could hear me farting all night and they opened my door to be sure I didn't die from all the fumes!  beware-this is a dangerous season....LOL!

Yah LynnK... sugar alcohols make me dump too, worse than regular sugar does. I get some of the same symptoms from it!
