I don't know how it happened

Had one at 11am and liked it so much I had another.

One when walking the dog then another when I came back to warm me up with tea.

Two when watching a crap film, the repeat for Netflix

Then two must've jumped into my mouth

@Newsenmum

i can’t believe you sat there and counted

It's a multiple of 10, I don't think that poster was using their fingers and toes to work it out

I blame it on being clumsy. Things just fall into my mouth as I potter around. Usually cheese to fair but chocolate today

I hate it when that happens. Falling onto some sausage rolls or an Easter egg… then you need to eat chocolate to make yourself feel better… 😁

Mumof2NDers · 24/03/2024 08:33

Wow!! That’s impressive, the most I’ve managed is 6!

fuckthemail · 24/03/2024 08:32

I did this once and posted it on here for the lols. Everyone reacted like this - like it was funny. Turns out I had binge eating disorder... Just throwing it out there in case OP. It took me years to realise what was going on.

soupfiend · 24/03/2024 08:32

This sounds like creme egg bragging.

Im not even sure I believe you but then I cant stand the things, I think they're repulsive

However they are small so I can see how it happens.

You know what I find sad?
When I was a kid in the 70's/80's creme eggs were bigger and the chocolate had no palm oil in it so it didn't taste greasy.
I used to like cadburys mini eggs until they went greasy.

And the chocolate was much thicker. Dd had one the other day, the chocolate was like a thin skin.

They used be quite difficult to bite due to chocolate thickness. Now they are just pathetic.

Crème egg consumption doesn't cause diabetes. Please educate yourself.

Show quote history

It's 260g of sugar in one day, just from the eggs.

That's exactly the kind of consumption that causes diabetes.

Sunshinedayscomeon · 24/03/2024 08:30

Did you eat them all the same way, or vary the method of consumption?

Lelophants · 24/03/2024 08:25

@Georgethecat1 ooh does that mean if I’m breastfeeding I get a free pass? I have a pack of four in the garage and I’m tempted. I’m more of a Lindt fan though generally. Maybe I should shove a bunny or two in my mouth. Give those teeth a wash of sugar! Won’t be able to fit my salad in.

RainbowZebraWarrior · 24/03/2024 08:25

They are so sickly, I cant even eat one, so wouldn't be my choice.

I did have a crap day on Friday though, so ate four star bars.

Lelophants · 24/03/2024 08:23

This thread is hilarious. One day of eating too much chocolate and suddenly it’s binge eating disorder and the start of diabetes. What do you salad eaters do on Easter Sunday? the op wouldn’t have posted if it was normal for her. I’m sure there are women on here who haven’t eaten enough in a day before.

IwishMaxTheriothadanOnlyfans · 24/03/2024 08:23

Oh god I'm so jealous. I ADORE creme eggs but haven't had one this year as I'm on WW. I know if I have one, I'll have ten as well ...

Newsenmum · 24/03/2024 08:15

Georgethecat1 · 24/03/2024 07:02

When I was breastfeeding I ate 5 caramel eggs in a day (as caramel versions are superior to the regular cream egg 🤣)

Noooooo

10 x creme eggs = 1,770 calories

Fine if you didn't eat much else.

i can’t believe you sat there and counted

Haha! I’ve also been pretty clumsy lately.

MarmiteyCrumpets · 24/03/2024 08:13

You're a legend, OP 👏

ProfessorPeppy · 24/03/2024 08:07

This is the reason I haven’t eaten any chocolate, sweets, biscuits or cake for an entire year. I can’t justify just one, it has to be the packet.

I don’t know if I miss it or not, I just tell people I don’t eat it so they don’t get/offer me any. Whenever my brain says to me OOH A CRÈME EGG I just tell it that it can get its dopamine elsewhere.

MartinaMorningstar · 24/03/2024 07:58

10 cream eggs is disgusting.

Red Lindt or caramel ones though...

Craftyy · 24/03/2024 07:47

How do you mentally get past the fact you've had 260g of sugar though? Genuinely curious.

Previously i probably could have done 5 or 6 (i don't think i ever have though) at a push and now I'm diabetic so i can't.

BlindMedusa · 24/03/2024 07:43

ButtCheeks · 24/03/2024 07:16

Sounds like one of “those” days OP. We all have them.

I made a creme egg toastie once, it was pretty magical.

Or warm the creme egg (eggs lets be real not just one) up, toast a hot cross bun and cut it into "soldiers" 😋. Can highly recommend

Londonrach1 · 24/03/2024 07:39

Wow. I feel sick after more than one. I'm impressed....don't ask me about mini eggs as you get a similar answer to your Aibu...they too yummy

Bugsbunnie · 24/03/2024 07:36

I only count 9 so it’s not that bad. Also you dud walk the dog so that kind of makes up for it

Mrssheepskin · 24/03/2024 07:27

This is something I could do. I haven’t but I could! I eat healthy the majority of the time but I have little will power when there’s an open box of chocolates etc (hence why I don’t generally have them in the house).

I have eaten those Reese’s snowman in one sitting before (the ones that weigh a tonne and are filled with peanuts butter cream 😬)

LlynTegid · 24/03/2024 07:24

I am imagining the dog with a face of disapproval!!

NewmummyJ · 24/03/2024 07:23

Haven't they shrunk? It's probably the equivalent of eating 5 or 6 5 years ago!
