Stupid pizza day at the school today. Just as unfortunate as the large box of free pizza is the smell wafting through the entire school. Doesn't fit my macros today with the dinner I have planned so alas it's off limits! MUST STAY STRONG lol

    You can do it! I hate when things like that happen, free food is the worst (when watching what you eat). I am at college and they always throw free food at us and it is like STAHP! THIS PIZZA IS NOT EVEN GOOD!

    Pretend that one guy who works in the office with the sweaty hands rubbed said sweaty hands ALL OVER the pizza.

    Or pretend that someone sneezed on it.

    Brings in the ew factor.

    Apparently, most Pizza,s in UK, consist of a crispy thin dough, some double concentrated low fat tomato paste, a bit of chicken, mushroom, onion, and three olives, and if you're lucky, just enough low fat Mozarella, to prevent the Pizza from burning like toast.

    I feel sad for people who can't eat what they want.

    She isn't saying she can't. She just said it won't fit her macros with what she has planned for her tea.

    Free pizza is never off limits. EVER.

    Unless there's gross stuff on it.

    If I ate everything I wanted I'd be obese instead of healthy. I did survive the pizza in the staff room and because I survived it I had 100 calories left for a delicious bar of ice cream which I thoroughly enjoyed! If it doesn't fit within your macros you shouldn't be eating it, and it didn't yesterday.

    Read "The Willpower Instinct" by Kelly McGonigal

    It's a new book, by the professor behind "The Science of Willpower" course at Standford University.
    Just finished it last week and it's a very good read, other than explaining physiologically and psychologically what's going on in your head, it has all kinds of tips, tricks and techniques to help you overcome impulsive urges and tests of ones willpower.

    Sacrificing pizza for ice cream is perfectly legit. :drinker:

    This is how we get to eat what we want, with responsible decision making. Good on ya op.

    I agree, it is so hard to stay away at work when the smell is wafting up your nose! But you did it, that's great:) I am always tempted by those treats, sometime I stay strong and other times I give in.

    I see what you're saying, but the OP said it doesn't fit her macros for the day. Therefore, she wants to avoid it like the plague.

    state agency of over 2000 here- there is crap CONSTANTLY in this building- it's EXHAUSTING.

    Plus swapping from bulking to cutting- one day you are eating all the free food you can get your paws on- and the next you say no to literally everything- people do not understand and cannot comprehend this. You get used to just saying no thanks. Plus I hate wasting food and I bring my lunch all the time.
