    If I eat a donut I have to run 3 miles to burn off the calories, unless it is a bear claw, then I have to run 6 miles.

    Don't eat the donut simply because its a poison to your body and your goal...

    Whenever im tempted to eat beyond the safety zone, i always remind myself this will kill you, destroy your goals and your life. It's the product of a corporation that attempts control and manipulate you and your actions, to be helpless and to be in the plans of their sinister idea of causing obesity on the public!!
    ....Then again this is what i think to avoid such foods >.> it helps me a lot lol

    Just dont eat the donut because its not worth the calories and what it give you in return. Instead eat something that gives nutritional benifits, even if its not tasty.

    LOLZ really?

    Do you have a safety word so that you do not eat the donut? COme on man! Donuts are not poison! They are freaking delicious! Having one every once in a while is not going to kill you …

    Seriously, reexamine your relationship with food ASAP.

    I love it when people at work don't eat their doughnuts because that means more for me!

    I think what he meant was that he uses that extreme mind set to keep him focused. At the end of the rant he says, this is just what he thinks to avoid those types of foods. At the very end he clarifies that is just not worth the calories to him.

    Someone brought in Krispy Kremes to work today.

    I'm not eating it because I'm saving those calories for my Friday beer. Eat it if you really want it. When I pass it's because I would rather spend those calories elsewhere. Think of what you would rather eat or drink instead if it really cramps your allowance and you're trying to stay under.

    Because they will not fit into your calorie limit, or your macronutrient balance.

    And if the above statement isn't correct, then eat the donut.

    Exactly!!

    because for that amount of calories you can have a serving of chicken breast which will make you more full and satisfied :smile:


    Or you can have both, as long as they both fit into your macros and calorie goal for the day.

    Doughnuts are awesome but not worth the calories, sugar, etc.

    Ummmm....just eat the donut. If one lousy donut can derail you, then you're not doing it right.

    Why not? Just eat one doughnut. It's like 300 calories. You can fit that in.

    Dont eat them if you want to lose weight

    Eat them if you want to have something to eat.

    To be honest, you answered the question in your own post deeming the post overall redundant....

    It's still unhealthy. It is the mindset that leads to people feeling like they "blew" their diet because of one donut and then going on a binge since they "already failed."

    Because wheat gives you gas? Oh wait, that's me. :blushing:

    A plain glazed donut is about 200 calories. If you want it, eat it.

    As soon as those "goodies" hit the nurses station, they go straight to the employee lounge where they are gone in 10 minutes flat. A picture I have in my head of someone's clogged arteries after a heart attack (In the OR) keeps me in check.
