Do you eat candy?

Do you eat candy? How important is it to avoid eating candy while taking Xenical? Does it matter?

Snickers. And Reeces Peanut Butter Cups. But I've been doing good lately, and haven't had one in almost two weeks.

I love Reeces Peanut Butter cups. I also like the Reeces Pieces. I wouldn't look at the nutrition label, though. They have a lot of fat. I can't resist them when they are around...

If I have to drive a long distance, one of the things I always do is pick up some Reeces when I stop for gas. Now I have visions of getting gas, getting Reeces, and getting sick. Another one of my favorite foods gone. Of course, it should have been eliminated from my diet long ago.

I called myself chocolate, so what do you think? I'm giving it up, though. Really.

One of my problems with Reeces is that I do not feel full after eating one. I think it is because it is so small, even though it has a lot calories.

Most candy is like that. You get a lot of sugar, sometimes a lot of fat, and the only gratification is to your sweet tooth, not to your stomach.

You're right. I really want to try to stop eating candy because of that.
