    Several times a week, I am confronted at work with unexpected food, some of it very calorie rich. Every time I see it, I think to myself "Is this donut really more important than me being a normal weight and looking good? Is it worth eating less for dinner or dessert tonight?" Generally speaking, it isn't and I just stick to my original plan for the day and keep walking.

    Because it is free is not a reason to eat it. False economy if all the free food seriously hinders your ability to lose weight.

    Assuming you have a fridge at work, you should consider bringing your own meals in, maybe keeping some snacks in purse.

    Congrats on your upcoming wedding! I wish I was going to Jamaica in November! :D
