We had a bagel party this morning at work and i did not touch one of them! Whew! They had those big crusty ones like French toast, cinnamon crunch, etc. I can't imagine how many calories were in them plus the cream cheese. I used to eat those. Maybe i will treat myself with one in the future but for now I did not cave into the temptation and it gives me more confidence that I can do it everyday if needed.

    I hear ya, they do that every friday morning at my office, and I have to walk right by them every time to get to my desk, all bakery fresh smelling and all. For about 3 seconds I think about grabbing 1/2 of one, but I haven't given in in months I'm happy to say.
    So congratz to you on good work!

    Congrats! I totally know what you mean! I avoided the pizza at one daughter's in-school pizza party yesterday, but then caved (a little!) at the other daughter's softball pizza party last evening. I worked extra hard at the gym this morning, though!

    It wasn't easy and there is always food at work in every office! I just have to say no and tell myself before i walk past it to just forget it. Good Luck to all of us avoiding the junk at work!:smile:

    Cool. I just met a Zumba instructor from Columbia. She sure knows how to salsa, samba, cumbia.
    Dance for me when you are in Columbia!
