    "Nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels" Suck down some water and tell him not to eat them in front of you! You're strong you can do it!!!!

    dont do it. consider how you will feel after you indulge. youll be mad or disappointed with yourself. stay strong. oh and i love your goals you have set and the rewards you have given yourself . I think i may have to try that myself! i hope you can resist the temptations!

    good luck

    Walk, no run, away from the muffins!! If you need a chocolate fix, go grab a serving of chocolate chips and slowly eat them (I let them melt in my mouth - can take me a half hour to eat 1 serving). Yes, it's 80 calories, but that's a FAAAARRR cry from 740!

    Your husband is really testing your resolve, isn't he??

    Good luck!

    Go look at the exercises and see how long you have to exercise to work one muffin off! That's the way I think when I have something like that staring me in the face. And send them all to work with your husband tomorrow! lol

    The way I see it, you have 2 options:

    1. Take a small bite, and have the satisfaction you had a taste of it, then burn it off in your next workout, or ...
    2. Stay away, and just say no, especially if you have reached the max calorie for the day :)

    Think about how loooooonnnnng you'd have to exercise if you at that! Don't do it!!! Drink some lowfat chocolate milk or hot chocolate if you are really craving the chocolate, but don't eat one of those. If you really must, just have half then. If your willpower isn't strong enough, don't go there though.

    Well...first I say...STEP AWAY FROM THE MUFFINS! Then give your husband a slap upside the head for bringing that temptation home. My old self would say send them to me....but no, I will just admire them from afar and eat my fruit!

    to eat it is a no no!! Remember having it will only be 3 minutes of enjoyment, then after you will feel like crap! So tell him to get rid of them or take them in another room and eat them all! Then remember why your here, your goals, go pop a bag of popcorn or have a chocolate protein bar like a cliff, luna what ever you have thats healthy. I call that sabotash!!!

    . Weight loss is all in your way of thinking about food. If you can avoid this temptation - then you can avoid any !!! Tell yourself that you want weight loss more than you want that muffin. That works for me.

    Very good words of wisdom here! 700+ calories for a choc muffin is a lot!!! DO NOT DO IT! It's not worth it.

    Next time you go shopping, have a look for some diet cake mix and make your own! :-)

    Hide them out of sight. Drink a bunch of water. Go look at the clothes in your closet and try some things on...sometimes when I want a really bad treat I will put on a very form fitting top and remind myself how much work it took me to get here and how I can't blow that many cals on whatever thing it is. Don't do ittttttttttt

    Yikes! Stay away from them! I broke down and ate potato chips a while back and they didnt taste good and I felt crappy afterwards. It was not worth it in any way I looked at it. Learn from my lesson, it wont taste as good as it looks.
