    I know you are not totally serious, especially with the wheat grass comment but…..
    I opened the fridge today at work and I am in for it as well. Not only do they always have donuts, cookies, muffins, and pot lucks every freakin day! They have 5 cakes and pies for a couple peoples birthdays! Not 1, Not 5 small cakes and pies. 5 FREKIN HUGE CAKES AND PIES FROM KEY LIME PIE (my fav) to chocolate moose, to cheesecake. THEY ARE HUGE! 1 of them is 2 feet across of chocolate cake with a chocolate filling! !@#!@#$ What the !@#$@#$!! SERIOSLY!

    …I understand…. Wheat grass aside. Maybe I should get some key lime pie ice cream for later if I make it…. That seems to be one of your favs too.

    OMG. I could write a book on this topic. I work in an area where there are two chatty (overweight, but ALWAYS "dieting") women in a cubicle, then two older men that eat anything under the sun and don't think twice. These people are also the social butterflies of the entire organization, so they invite others over for pot lucks every single Thursday. There are usually 10-15 dishes of nasty salads, cakes, pies, cookies, brauts, nachos, etc. I don't like this stuff, but it cooks all day long, and people come and go and are eating it all day long. THEN...every Wednesday is "Chinese Day" where they all order out from the Chinese joint and eat together. THEN...they celebrate SOMETHING at least once a week, where they bring in cake, ice cream, pie, or whatever and "celebrate." Finally, one of the older guys has a wife that loves to bake, so he brings in things constantly. All this is fine and dandy, BUT they will intentionally set plates full of brownies, cookies, whatever...on my desk while I'm out doing things, so I come back to the temptation at my desk. They did this for months while I was dieting down for my first physique show. When I couldn't take it anymore, and hit an all time low for carb depletion and sleep deprivation and exhaustion, I snapped. I came into my office to see a plate full of brownies and a note that said, "EAT ME FATTY!" I shoved two whole brownies in my mouth, chewed it up half way, while picking up the plate of remaining brownies...I went out to the ***** that did it and threw the plate of brownies at her. I then went around the corner to the next cubicle and spit the brownies out on the other *****'s desk and said....I can't possibly swallow these. I'm too fat. I turned around and walked out. I went to my car, went home early, and balwed my eyes out. Dirty *kitten* never did it again. :-)

    lol I am sure they didnt do this on purpose! lol You knew it was coming.....either eat what you want and work it off or bring your own treats to share....who knows maybe someone there might be looking for something healthy too. :)

    My veggies and fruit usually get eaten first. This is a great idea!

    I'm really sorry you have such generous, genial, and friendly co-workers. Are they forcing their treats down your throat?

    Geez. Just have some self control and don't eat the treats.

    Eat a fiber one bar between every unclean food item
    It'll flush out all the dirty food before your body can absorb any of the bad calories

    Am I the only one who noticed how insanely ripped the OP is?! I really don't think one doughnut is going to derail his progress!

    Yes, writing your coworker a note that says "eat me fatty" is the epitome of friendly. I would have went ape *kitten* too.

    Today there are two mini parties for a guy whose wife is having a baby and a girl who is going on maternity leave. There are unclean baked goods everywhere! Clearly they are trying to derail my clean eating lifestyle because they are jelly. Why couldn't they bring in organic apple slices or some wheat grass shots instead of OJ and muffins and doughnuts?

    How do you deal with sabotage such as this?

    Bring some fruit to contribute to the celebration. In our office we have a birthday cake almost every month. This month it was my birthday and I asked for watermelon instead. It was DELICIOUS!

    People should seriously think about how it affects others before they get pregnant. Stupid parties. Go steal all of their gifts. :smile:

    If the food is dirty, just clean it off. 10 second rule doesn't apply to party food....
