How am i supposed to lose weight when all of my sugary weaknesses are surrounding me today at work?!?!?! Not just 1 temptation, but multiples!!! In the break room as we speak, there are Krispy Kreme donuts and Blueberry Muffins. Its a coworkers birthday so she has Red Velvet Cake for after lunch. And my office mate choose today to bring out the Halloween Pumpkin full of candy!!!! WHY?!?!! Is this a test? IF so, im failing miserably!

    Isn't that the worst? And I know it's all about self control etc - but I just don't have that stuff around my house or I know I will eat it! I am such a sucker for sweets. I swear that always happens too -- it's like 10 yummy things not just 1!!!!!!!!!! Try your hardest to pick ONE of them and have some :)

    GOOD LUCK!

    Yesterday someone brought in a box of doughnuts and fresh baked bagels. Damn their generosity!

    There is always so much junk food at my work I can't stand it! But I just ignore it as much as possible and remind myself that I want to look hot and not frumpy (like most of the women who are eating the crap at my work)

    Everyone must have had a party this past weekend because on Monday our lunchroom was filled with left over choc cake, cupcakes, cookies, etc. etc. etc. :smile:

    Very rarely does it appeal to me anymore.

    Throw some breakfast tacos out there & one my weak day, I might have to indulge. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    I completely sympathize! I try to stay out of the kitchen/break room when I know there are sweets around. Hopefully by the time I have to come back to refill my water bottle, they'll all be gone!

    I just decide that it does not exist.

    "What break room?"

    Most of it I don't consider to be "food" anyway, which makes it easier. Easier, not "easy"... but it's worth it.
