I was in the break room at work and had a staring contest with some homebaked goodies......and after 5 minutes I won.....but really already?


I know I know I can't complain....many people have been doing that for longer than I, but d@mn.......

I know you are not supposed to deprive yourself of anything it only makes it worse, but I'm getting back on track with a vengance and I mean business. No, is no. No no no. I've tried the...."work it off later" attitude and then I can't find the time to do that, or I don't make the time. I guess you could say I'm going to "Jillian Michaels" myself.

My indulgence today is a 20oz pop, which will last me all day, so there's my "treat"

What's the hardest thing for you to stare down?

    Oh yeah, the holiday sweets...the fudge...the cookies...the breads...the cakes...and I try to stay strong. Note the word try. I have made a deal with myself. If I want to "sample" I have to exercise first, then check the calorie count on it and see if it's "worthy" and I go from there. Last night I rode my bike for 45 minutes so I could have some fudge! :)

    If I see the bad food I am fine and I can resist most of the time now. I will allow myself to eat these things but obviously in moderation cos I'd go absolutely mental!! :laugh: But when I smell the food, that drives me mad! Like in restaurants or walking past takeaway joints! I live near a bakers, 2 chinese takeaways, 1 chip shop and 1 indian takeaway and honestly it's a complete nightmare especially coming out of the gym at night!! :sad: :sad: :sad:

    So far in work for Xmas, food gifts I have been given are a small box of chocolates and a box of miniture biscuits. I will eat 2 max out the box but then probably won't touch them for a few days. It's a bit of a waste eating them as one bite and they're gone, but at the time they taste good! :laugh:
