OK, so I have a bowl of fun size candy at my desk for my co-workers but it is causing me to have no self control. I eat like 5 pieces a day! I bring healthy snacks but I still eat the candy!! Any suggestions out there to help me regain my control"?? Thanks!

    No more bowl. Co-workers will have to deal.

    Take the bowl, walk around the office, hand it out and then don't bring any more. They can bring their own.

    Then put it on the boss's desk, put it on a side table, or tell your coworkers to bring in their own damn candy.

    They're grown. They have a job. They can buy their own candy.

    Send it to me, I'll take care of it :-) Seriously though, make someone have it who doesn't have to watch their weight or isn't bothered about candy.

    You enjoy the treats yes? Then save room for them! Figure up how many calories are in those pieces :]

    No reason to punish everyone else because you are on a diet i think

    Yeah, this is a no-brainer. Out of sight, out of mind. Ditch the bowl. Or put healthy things in it. It's better for you AND the rest of your office.

    Your hand grabs the candy. Your brain controls your hand. You control your brain. Remember this.
