I liked that you removed yourself for the most part away from the movie theater temptations. It is so hard to give that stuff up -- especially when my wife can get an blue raspberry Icee and popcorn or candy and not be affected while I have my cup of water :) I'm content with that because it's the decision that I made --- I chose this lifestyle of better health. It's hard but it's possible. Oh yeah -- I love Reeses Pieces...peanut butter in a crunchy shell. delicious <strong>Thanks Seth - I've never been a huge fan of Reese's Pieces myself, although of course I could eat them just like anything else. When you talk peanut and butter and chocolate to me you are talking Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, those can be a downfall for me for sure.</strong> I'm a fan of the fruit I do have to say because I eat plenty of them too – only I separate them throughout the day.

I thought about sneaking in a bottle of water when I went today but it didn't work out logistically. <strong>It's crazy how much they charge for bottled water so I can understand wanting to smuggle one in. Hard to do though!</strong> I need to learn how to stay away from food at the movie theatre. I thought about sneaking in a bottle of water when I went today but it didn't work out logistically.

And good job avoiding the movie popcorn. We went to see Valentine's Day and skipped the popcorn. Tough, because it smelled so good, but I reminded myself we were saving like $90 by not getting any, and that helped, too. :) <strong> Calories and cash - makes sense to avoid!</strong> The fruit looks delicious.

Probably better than I did at my weekend movie escapade. We really enjoyed the movie. Haven't read the books, but my kids are interested now. LOL!

Nothing quite like movie-style popcorn... <strong>I don't think I should have taken so much crap for what I had - half a soft pretzel and a few Reese's Pieces with a bottle of water is pretty darn good if you ask me! I'm pretty good at staying away from the movie theatre popcorn once I started researching how many calories they can have. How did you like the movie?
