    Nothing tastes as good as donut feels.

    I've just found the inscription for my tombstone.

    Just donuts? Meh, today there's donuts, cookies, cupcakes, oh yeah, the giant cookie in my office. I'm just trying to decide where to start.

    :laugh: ^^ definitely this! I love free food, especially free donuts. But if I don't have room in my calorie budget, I skip it. If i do have room, I donut this shiz up. But don't torture yourself. Make a decision and then put it out of your mind.

    Easier said then done. Once, there was cake at work but I didn't have spare calories left. I didn't eat any but I obsessed about it for hours.

    Just ignore them. You will be proud of yourself later. Go get you some coffee or something...no sugar though!

    Whaaat?!?! What's wrong with sugar, again?

    OP, yesterday, fresh donuts were brought to the office. I ate 1/4 of one and left the rest. I also had sugar (1/2 tsp. per cup) in both cups of coffee. You know what, I was STILL 240 under my calorie budget...AND I managed to exceed my protein goal (it's a good thing!), while doing well on the rest of my macros.

    The ONLY reason to not eat a bite of a donut, is if you think you can't stop there. And, honestly, if you're going to take orders from a donut, you need to get to the root cause of it.

    Eat a damn bite of it.

    Nothing's wrong with sugar, hun. I have sugar as well, everyday. But, in the beginning when I was struggling with issues like whether or not to eat a donut, my willpower sucked donkey balls and having a little bit of sugar triggered me to want more. Like you said about not being able to stop there. I figure if she's posting this, her willpower isn't all that strong yet. Was just my advice, hun. No worries....I totally agree with you, nothing wrong with some sugar as soon as you get your willpower in check. That's all. :drinker:

    If you want a donut from Tim Horton's, drive there and get one. No? Then don't think you want one or have to eat it just because someone made it easy access for you. No one is going to make the 30min to 1 hour of exercise you'll need to do easy for you. You will have to work for that donut. Is that what you want today?

    That's funny, donuts were brought into my work too. From two different places, too! I just ate one donut. It was da bomb.

    Either eat a donut, or don't eat a donut.

    Just because they're in front of you, the choice is still ultimately yours whether you put it in your mouth. If you choose to eat it, log it and make your choices for the rest of the day in accordance with meeting your goals.

    You can eat a donut once in a while if you want.

    This. I don't need to read the rest of the thread now. This is the only right answer.

    You could use the calories to eat something more filling and with a little more nutritional value. Protein and fiber tend to be more filling than a delicious, sugary doughnut.

    But, if you really want a doughnut, I'd say eat the doughnut and work it into your calories. It just really depends on how badly you want it.

    Story of my life!! If you have the calories and want to eat it..>Eat it.....If not don't eat it

    Would you go out and buy it? Would you let a co-worker force feed it to you? If not, then why let someone else's choice to bring it in make your decision? It sounds like you already know you will regret it, so are the few minutes of taste worth the sugar crash and the regret later?

    Or you can pretend you have celiac disease and just keep telling yourself it's poison.

    That being said, I have something sugary just about every day. I work out so I can. Moderation will get you long term results, deprivation will most likely result in failure.

    Have half. That's ususally what I do when people bring in treats. At least then you can go to the gym later and work it off :)

    ^^^ This - and anyway, when it's broken in half all the calories escape and run away :bigsmile:

    This thread really is an amazing social commentary on how completely messed up some people are when it comes to food.
    You don't need them to feel good about yourself.
    Just ignore them. You will be proud of yourself later. Go get you some coffee or something...no sugar though!
    Think of how much better you will feel if you DON'T eat that donut!

    Tim Hortons donuts are so much harder to turn down than any other kind... I feel your pain!
  • You dont want one because its not worth it! Two hours from now you wont be thinking about how good it tasted, youll be thinking about how much you regret eating it! Not worth the calories!

    I love donuts. Sigh. And I can make them fit in my calories for the day. BUT I will then crave sugary stuff the rest of the day without fail so I often just say no. I am planning to eat one from the Mennonite bakery this weekend though and sugar craving be-damned!
  • So what did you do?

    I think I'm going to walk myself over to Shipley's and get myself a donut now... because no one brought any in today and all this talk is making me want one.
