Throwing out the V day candy..surprisingly hard

An ex brought me a ( probably left over on sale ..and not very high quality) heart shaped box of Valentine?s Day chocolates on V day- its been sitting here luring me from the counter every hour of every day ever since.

I ate one piece of chocolate in front of him to be polite and another after he left ( i needed comfort- he kind of forced unwanted petting by grabbing my chest and made me feel bad emotionally)

I don?t even LIKE chocolate or sweets in general.

But its hard to discard it- I remember my many years of binging- and searching for binge food in my emptied -out apartment and having none. Boy what I would have given for these multi-flavored chocolates to be in my home ready to be savored and enjoyed THEN...

I think its hard for anyone *****members being hungry to discard perfectly edible but fattening and unhealthy food...

My plan is to put the box ( opened ) in the garbage pail and then change the kitties?litter boxes on top. NO-CAN-TAKE-BACK

Or, I dunno, you could give it to someone who would enjoy it instead of wasting it...smdh.

What does smdh mean ?

I'd be happy to give it away but most of the people who pass by my home are joggers .. I doubt they'd want em

Are you sure they're jogging?

garbage disposal.

If you don't want to throw out ... bring to work and put in pantry or coffee room or your hair dresser .... where I get my hair done they love treats .... they have a little table with coffee and usually cookies or something that I can not eat there that some one brought in.

Lol are you implying they might be peeping at the crazy lady ?!

I don't put labels on food "good food- bad food".

I have more candies and chocolate than I had before RNY. I may have a piece or 2 when I really want to. Chocolate is great bringing my BS up when I get RH or Hypoglycemia. A very tasty way to correct low BS.

When I feel that some candies may be in my house for too long (and we not going to eat them) I take them to work, or when I go for a visit to a friend, before they go bad or are past expiration date. Some chocolate we keep in a fridge.

I think having a nice piece of chocolate once in a while is not a big deal.

Following keto - Paleo diet I rarely get cravings for chocolate. That is IMO the difference between low fat diet and keto- when I keto I don't want most of the sweets. They don't apeal to me. Now jar of black kalamata olives is not safe with me. Given a choice- piece of chocolate vs a 1/2 cup of olives- olives win everytime.

Olives with chocolate. Heaven!
