I just joined the site today and I'm really excited! I'm sure this has come up before, and I can't be the first person to bring this up....but.....

What is the deal with the donuts above my home page??? Talk about temptation!!

    LOL thats because the ad's pull information from the site, they can see its a food/health site! There are some funny and not so funny tempting ad's that pop up!

    maybe its a way to desensitize us from the donuts. hehe :wink:

    but if you really dont want to be tempted by them, use firefox and use the ad blocker and it should block it out.

    :laugh: Literally this is the third time TODAY that I have seen this same type of post about the donuts in the ads.

    Not your fault, you didn't see the others. But it's just advertising to keep the site free. :smile:

    :laugh: I don't even see them now :wink: I can take them if it keeps me on track for free :bigsmile: If you walk down/drive somewhere you are bound to see tasty adverts or even worse the actual shops :laugh:

    I just tried something I read earlier and if you right click on the advert you get the option to block it :flowerforyou:

    Thanks, everyone! Maybe I can turn it around and use it for motivation instead of temptation! It can be a test of my inner strength! :laugh:

    Kind of like a doughnut shop next to the Weight Watchers meeting hall?
