    Hands up who already has post-chocolate guilt?

    If you ask us, a Lindt bunny is always worth it, but if you'd like to make it through the Easter holiday without sudden weight gain,  AND enjoy the best Cadbury has to offer, you'll need to create some balance with exercise.

    Thankfully, the Biggest Loser Club knows how to burn the exact calories each Easter treat is worth. So we've matched our favourites with the exercises needed (and amount of time you'll need to do them) for a woman of average height, weighing around 70 kg.

    And luckily, most can be done while adhering to social distancing rules too!

    In addition to the above, consider upping your daily intake of healthy foods that burn calories too, to further minimise the damage!

    What's your favourite kind of exercise? And more importantly, what's your favourite Easter treat?

    Looks like I need to workout for rest of this month :)

    I love a good workout - love mixing it up but perhaps cyclinh is my favourite. I have overindulged this Easter but I am glad it is a defined amount of time and once it's over I'm back to eating (and drinking!) mindfully

    Right now I dont need to worry I have yet to have eaten any easter eggs at all. Been busy doing alot of things and so I havent had the time to just sit and enjoy some chocolate. But I did get alot that i needed to get done done. And I hope everyone had a wonderful easter

    Oh dear, I am too lazy to burn off all this chocolate! ahhhhh

    SMP-kitten 22 Apr 2014 3:33 AM

    I resisted over easter so no worrying about that, but I do need to take off a few kilos anyway so ive told my partner to take me for a training session tonight to make it a bit more fun. He works with a PT a lot so he has a good idea of what to do. It doesnt cost anything and theres motivation for both of us!

    Beautybabe140194 22 Apr 2014 3:10 AM

    I am going to have to do a lot of workouts this week.

    Vi 22 Apr 2014 2:55 AM

    This is interesting. I'm lucky this doesn't affect me as I don't need to lose weight so I enjoy eating chocolate without feeling guilty.

    Britty1 22 Apr 2014 2:41 AM

    ohh dear.... i wish i hadn't read this!! feeling extreme guilt right now!

    Evanescencessy 22 Apr 2014 2:30 AM

    I didn't eat much chocolate this easter and I don't do calorie counting.

    Jasmen111 22 Apr 2014 1:23 AM

    I didn't have much chocolate this easter! haha this happens rarely

    TheUglyDuckling 22 Apr 2014 12:58 AM

    I'm so amped on deadlines I'm leg tapping under the desk... does that count?

    Seashells 22 Apr 2014 12:55 AM

    I absolutely despise calorie counting too - it's depressing & I'd rather have the freedom to enjoy whatever it is I want to eat without feeling guilty or having to do the math. That said, if I had a punching bag, it'd be getting a workout....I did have a number of hot cross buns this Easter! (No chocolate for me, although I did eat a bit of a chocolate dessert on Sunday.) I personally enjoy walking, dancing and (when the opportunity arises) swimming. I have a number of stairs in my house, so walking up & down them all day helps to keep me fit I'd say.

    A nice little printable - I think I'll be giving it to my kids!

    Natalie123 21 Apr 2014 11:49 PM

    i had a few small eggs, its easter you cant deprive yourself - it only makes you crave it more, you just have to do it in moderation! well at least try to anyway LOL

    When you look at the stats you think " holy cow" and maybe think twice before you put another piece of chocolate in your mouth!
