Happy Valentines Day!


Happy Valentines Day!  I love Valentines Day.  I love getting awesome amazing prizes from my hubby.  I also love spoiling my hubby and kids with valentine gifts and candy.  They get so excited... And unlike Christmas, there is no pressure... Just a fun relaxing and romantic holiday.  

I keep a little heart dish on my coffee table full of chocolate and valentines candy and for some reason the little conversation hearts are really killing me.  I just can't seem to keep my hands out of them.  I guess I keep thinking I'll have just one little heart, it couldn't even be 1 point.  Then I move to 3, 6, 10.  Arghhh!!!
  

After eating a box all on my own, it was time to figure out the Weight Watchers PointsPlus.  This little 1 oz box is 3 Points.  Phew!  Not to shabby.  I will be having some more for sure.




As you can see the entire 1 oz box is just a handful.  Just enough to satisfy my sugar craving.

Chocolate Dipped Cinnamon Bears are Bad!



Have you ever tried one of these bad boys?  If no, then don't, because they are BAAAD! Very bad!  If yes, then you know what I am talking about.  Chocolate dipped cinnamon bears are delicious.  Sounded gross to me at first, but when I tried one I was hooked.  On my facebook status I mentioned I was craving chocolate cinnamon bears and my darling hubby brough me home a pound.  Ahhhhhh!!  I love and hate him all at once.


The problem is, I just can't eat one...   I actually ate twelve before I stopped.   At 5 Weight Watchers Points Plus for 4 of those little guys, it was not a good day for me.  So what should I do now?  How do I stop eating them!  Trust me I tried several times to stop, but I just kept eating them.  Well I ended up doing this:


I put 5 point servings in snack-sized Ziplock bags and froze them.  That did the trick!  Who wants to eat a frozen one?  Not me.

What do you do to stop eating something yummy and addicting? 

 Just so you know, I quickly found out it only takes 5 seconds in the microwave to thaw out 1.  Sigh.  I wish I only LIKED food.  Too bad I am madly in love with it!
