    Almost every Friday, on co-workers' birthdays, and every holiday! :laugh: There's a Dunkin Donuts across the street from our office, so someone inevitably grabs a couple dozen anytime there's a decent excuse to do so.

    Before going healthy I totally went ape on these chocolate donut holes Sales was bringing in on Saturdays. I've been on this plan since October. Still, every Saturday I get "I got your donut holes". So I just let everyone else eat them. No biggee but I've told this person countless times I don't eat them anymore....like clockwork every Saturday "I got your donut holes". LOL

    Oh well.

    I CHOOSE not to eat them and give in. The time I give in, then its time to change plans!

    Almost everyday there is something so good in our break room......if it isn't the doctors that bring food in, it is the patients...

    to get through a day is so challenging because the food/deserts always look so good :)

    LOL! I work in a branch office where there are a total of 4 of us and 3 of us are trying to lose weight and get healthy. So I have no problems.

    Every Friday morning over the all office speaker on everyones phones- "Donuts have arrived". Then I watch everyone run to the breakroom as I enjoy my Pro Bar & water!!

    Oh my gosh!! Just got that email! "Help yourself to pastries and fruit outside Dr. O's office." At least they mentioned fruit but going to get the fruit means seeing the pastries. No thank you!

    I know that the sugar so early in the morning will throw off my appetite for the rest of the day, so I just don't... but pizza for lunch is my big weakness! It happens every weekend here in car sales to make the pain of working Saturdays a little easier on us.

    HAHA YES! We get a page.. "Coffee truck's here!" I went to see what all the hoopla was about one day... I was strictly veg at the time and they didn't have a single vegetarian option. All bacon-egg-cheese-french toast sandwiches and the like. Every day the coffee truck arrives in the service bay and everyone books it.

    Go to the break room, pick one up, and slam dunk it in the trash! Temptation gone! It will feel awesome! That's what I've been doing lately with crap in the break room and it works. Sometimes it takes 2 slam dunks.

    You aren't wasting it. You used it to stay fit.

    Yep always food on birthdays, but my employers also buy fruit for the whole office so there are always healthy choices.

    Our office is doing a biggest looser thing and so far, every one not participating has been very supportive and NOT brought the cakes, candy and all that TASTY stuff in! We are going to do a salad bar day soon, everyone will bring in something for a salad, and some low fat dressings.

    Haha I'm glad I'm not the only one to get the page! I just think it's funny how many people come talk to me only on Fridays because I sit close to the breakroom... and I LOVE telling them "I don't eat that shi*!" (Don't get me wrong- I do enjoy an occasional do-do! :ohwell: ) But it is on VERY RARE occasions! I'm trying too hard right now to resist temptation, and I feel great I don't even think about them now :smile:
