    I'm actually really glad I don't have to deal with cakes and goodies at work! I'm the opposite of you - I look at food like that and I think "do I REALLY want to run for 30+ minutes to burn that off...." and then I'll put it down.

    My office is all about food. It seems that people are bringing goodies daily. It is difficult to resist.

    We had 3 birthdays in one week, mine included. But we got smart --- ONE cake for all three. Saves so many calories. I allowed it -- I dont have cheesecake very often....

    ....and YES IT WAS GOOD!!!!

    Yes my company always has food. We either have a few birthdays a month since we also celebrate with our "sister department" or there is a valentines bake sale or a chili-dog charity sale or a baby shower...you name it, there is pretty much some kind of food event every week.

    I can usually resist, esp. if I don't have cash on me to participate in the bake sales. I just hate how they push the whole CHARITY aspect of the sale.....that's great and I am big on giving to charity, but some of us don't have the cash on hand or the calories available to participate. I should suggest a health food charity sale!

    Congrats though in rewarding yourself with the cookie but knowing you have to go to the gym to make up for it.

    We only have cakes at birthdays in the office, which are pretty wildely spread over the year. However every Friday our company pays for lunch and we order really yummy food from the restaurants. It is always food I like as well, we all seem to have very similar tastes. rcently I started resisting the staff lunches on Fridays when for example they ordered in Indian, or Chinese or Thai which is all fatty stuff.
    It is well tough though munching away on my green salad at my desk when every one else is in the boardroom with an Indian buffet!!!! :sad:
