    Gah, I know right?!

    Moderation, though. One donut every once in a while won't kill you. Just work it into your calorie intake. Do a few more exercises that day if you feel up to it. Maybe you can even eat half of it, and bring the rest home for later (or for someone who lives with you if you don't live alone). My mom used to do that a lot. She'd eat half a muffin (she worked at a place that made muffins, always brought home the leftovers) and give the other half to one of us kids later.

    Don't deprive yourself. If you give up donuts completely, when you DO eat a donut again... well, it might be hard to stop. :glasses:

    Have half if you can't make up your mind :)

    My mindset is that if I find myself saying "man, I could really use some goodies today" and then some one brings in goodies, I eat one. If not, I feel better about myself just taking a sniff and closing the box :laugh:

    IF they are donuts I really really like - I'd have one. If they are half stale, blah donuts... no. I try to only squeeze it in for the day if I love it. I hate to throw away calories on something blah.

    IF they are blah and I REALLY REALLY wanted it - I'd just squeeze it in. Somedays are just hormone driven that way.

    Set yourself a donut limit. They aren't going away so either you have to use staunch willpower or make peace with them.

    I had 3 the other day for breakfast!! 220 each!!

    Just had a cheese sandwich for lunch and a chicken hotpot for dinner and no other treats. Still under my calorie goal!!

    Moral of this rather pointless story? STICK TO YOUR GOALS AND TREAT YOURSELF TO WHAT YOU WANT!!

    Share the donut with a coworker or two and write it in your diary!

    Everytime someone eats a dougnut, a puppie dies. Probably in Sochi.

    Too soon? I'm actually really sad about this despite my flipant response.

    Don't let the dounut win and you can be so proud of yourself at the end of the day.

    Say that you have an intolerance to doughnuts, and keep saying it so people stop offering it you.

    Because your body isn't a waste bin. Just because its there, does not mean you have to put it in your body.

    You say this like donuts belong in the trash?! I whole-heartedly disagree!!! Give me your donuts. Lol!

    OP, just eat a quarter or an eighth (a bite) of one, log it, and move on. That's what I do. :wink:

    Do you actually want or need to eat the doughnut now or is it simply because it is free?

    Consumption for the sake of consumption is a bit pointless.

    Why don't you take one home and if you want to eat it later then do so...

    I'm not sure I would call a donut food. I myself have no problem turning down a donut mainly because I would rather spend my calories on something with a little more nutritional value in it. We frequently have someone bring in donuts and they always say it must be killing me to not be able to have one. I think I am able to have one if I want. I just choose not to. Of course this also comes from guys who complain how much they weigh but can't do anything about it. :bigsmile:
