Halloween is the occasion for collecting mounds of candy and sweets for both young and old! Is it Fun!? No Doubt! but if your goal is to get in shape for the holidays and look & feel your best BEWARE! Each little piece of fun sized candy tastes so delicious that one is not enough and we can end up eating way more than we should for many days and weeks after collecting and stashing them at home. Not only will these little guys  pack on the calories quickly, they will spike up our insulin levels super fast since they are pure sugar and fat thus promoting the growth of our midsection & making futile the effort we’ve been putting in the last few weeks!
