"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!!!!0

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!0 -
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! lol0

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 day0 -
Dont have any! you will be completely dissapointed in yourself if you do! you will be so mad and hate yourself! its just not worth it0
-
I say let the trashcan eat it and whip your husband for bringing it into the house and tempting you like that!:bigsmile:0
-
spray windex on them! quick!!!0

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.0

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!0
-
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!!!0

. 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.0

Go to NBC.com and look up biggest loser transformations Always gets me encouraged! I can't watch an episode of biggest loser without feeling like I need to hit the gym!!0

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! :-)0 -
Think of a big nasty bug (cockroach) walking across the top of them!0
-
Just think, "muffin top".0
-
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 ittttttttttt0
-
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.0
-
i'd tell him to hide them. but i have eating issues so yeah0
-
I have a better option for you.. Get the Skinny Cow frozen chocolate bars they are only 140 calories and are Delicious!0
-
I am sorry, but I love all your guys respond. To funny in a serious manner!! I would slap your husband too lol,0
-
I'll take 'em! ah, one...ok, half of one....
do you have the cals for it?
remember this is life style...are you forever giving up that stuff?
moderation is the game...sorry that I'm the downer, but this thing isn't for just a month, year...I'd rather enjoy a little something if there's room for it...??? Don't stone me.....0 -
Hold on now, Just hold on. This too shall pass.0
-
If you really want a chocolate muffin the Vita Muffins chocolate are delicious.0
-
that's disgusting... but not as disgusting as you will feel if you eat one of those .. things.0
-
spray windex on them! quick!!!
I am going to have to try that! Thanks for the laugh!0 -
Today at work, someone brought in not one but TWO chocolate cakes for our office staff in honor of admin asst day. They sat on the table in the staff break area all day, with their rich luscious creamy, fudgy icing whispering my name to me...and I happened to be working in an area today where I had to stare at those damn things all day! :grumble: I am very happy to say that I resisted them, AND SO CAN YOU!!!!!!! I just kept reminding myself that I worked so hard to acheive my goal, and if I continue to give in to those cravings then I will not fit into the new clothes I just bought myself 2 sizes smaller!
When I came home, after first making a healthy dinner of veggies and brown rice, I then made a treat of plain yogurt mixed with unsweetened Hershey's cocoa powder and a packet of equal to satisfy that chocolate craving. 60 guilt free calories of chocolatey goodness
I sure hope your husband learns to support your new lifestyle with a little more compassion....:noway:0 -
In all honesty they prob look better than they taste. While your eating it you'll be telling yourself it isn't even good but you'll have already started it so you'll finish it. And then when your done, you'll be angry at yourself. And for 740 cals those better be the size of a grapefruit.
Also if you think about it, you just want it for the taste and we all know what chocolate muffins taste like. Try to find a good sub, if you can.0 -
just because they look good doesnt mean you have to eat them.0
