    If you are like me eating half won't do it as you will want it whole, and maybe another one. Log it on MFP and check the macro. Does it fit with the rest of the daily intake you planned for the day? If yes, go on and eat one. If not, say no.... the best reward to saying no: the feeling of power you will have once you have overcome your craving (i.e. once somebody else will have eaten them!).

    We have a morbidly obese person in the office (to the point she can hardly walk) and I hate HATE hate when ppl bring fatty food because you and I can resist, she can't, she eats up to 3 doughnuts in one sitting. It makes me very sad to watch b/c it's an addition the same as drugs and it is literally killing her. Be stronger than this.

    Why can't we convince ppl not to bring this type of food to offer at work????? Why not apples?

    We've had cakes in the office today too. Lot's and lot's of Welsh Cakes for St Davids day.

    I've eaten some, as they will fit in my daily calories.

    They were yummy.

    Life is too short to live without Welsh Cakes. Yumm.

    load those calories on to mfp and see how many are really in them, then see how much you would have to workout just to burn off one of those doughnuts I guarantee you it will change your mind, that's how I've had to use my self control before lol

    Eat all of the donuts, then run around the office screaming, "YOU ARE ALL SABOTAGING MEEEEEEE!"

    Just kidding.

    I like the idea of thinking that the donuts are for someone else. Personally, that would work for me. :smile:

    cut one in half and enjoy that half. it'll satisfy your craving, and at only half the calories. if it sets you off, have the other half. you can kind of trick yourself into thinking you had two donuts.

    Thanks everyone. Here is what I did:

    Ate 1/2 doughnut

    Made sure EVERYONE in the office knew the doughnuts were there (about 40 people). ALL GONE NOW!

    Damn, gone in 30 minutes. It's a good thing you didn't grab for one of those doughnuts - someone might have bitten your hand off.

    What wrong with eating one and enjoying it then taking a walk after work?

    This! Eat it... Just follow up with some exercise... You can't cut out everything you like... That's not sustainable.


    Nevermind... I'm late to the party... You ate half and spread the word... Nice. :-)

    Better than Krispy Kreme? I don't know if I can believe you now. :huh:

    Almost every donut in the world is better than Krispy Kreme. Those are so nasty! :sick:

    You don't want no STEEENKIN' DOH' NUTS! You know if you avoid them that they will start to get picked over. People who like to fool themselves will start cutting them into halves and quarters pretending that there is fewer calories if they eat them in pieces. Do you know that ONE plain munchkin (donut hole) has 60 calories? Really? I bet you can use those calories someplace else. And, after a while, all those donuts are going to be picked over and touched by everyone in the office. And, you know HALF those guys don't wash their hands after doing the doodie. YUK! No DOH' NUT for you!

    60 calories is nothing! WTF?

    I agree. I've never been a huge fan of donuts, but Krispy Kreme are the worst. Especially after they get cold. They are just weird cold.
