The smell of Temptation!!

[vachelle72]

I swear someday's I find it harder to stick to my diet at work, than when I am out and about in the "world"

My co-workers order in every single day , I do not know how they do it physically or finacially. Well , physically it shows...they are all "skinny fat" Not overweight enough to be called fat , but things jiggle when thay shouldn't.

They just ordered in 2 Large Pepperoni , Sausage & Xtra Cheeses pizza's , and I am to have the will power to not climb over the table and bury my face in the box instead of eating my lunch ..."grilled chicken & bulgar wheat"

Good Lord , give me the strength

NO PIZZA FOR YOU

Stay strong girl. Just remember how you'll look in a couple months compared to them

Ohhhhhhh I hate that!!

Here's an idea: I think I might've read somewhere that the smell of peppermint helps with hunger cravings. Maybe keep a small bottle of peppermint essential oil on your desk to sniff?? Or some potpourri?? Or tea?

Oh god do I know the feeling!
Something I do for my girlfriend is this. I cut up a Detour bar into one inch sections and put it in a sandwich bag. She keeps them in a lunch bag in the fridge at work. When some sort of tempting food like pizza is served she "cheats" with a few pieces of the Detour bar. Granted its not the best bar out there... but.. at least its better then anything else they are serving!

Thanks Ladies & Gent !!!

It is a beautiful day in Los Angeles , so I opted to take my lunch outside. Now if I can just avoid sending a fax the rest of the day !!! It's in the back office where the leftover pizza is ..LOL

I sure know how you feel. On the way into work this morning I stopped at a red light, looked out the car window and there was a pizza box lying right outside my car door! I couldn't have ogled it more if it was being served by a sexy waiter in a G-string.

Didn't matter to me that it was lying out on the side of the road. I could still imagine how good the pizza would have tasted. Just remember, no matter how good you think it may taste, it will never taste as good once you eat it.

My trick is to remember a time when I was absolutely craving a certain food item (Chix Fajita Roll-up from Applebee's) and gobbled the whole thing up. The grease set in an hour later and I felt like s!*t the rest of the day and I swore I'd never make myself feel like that again. That usually does the trick.

Hey sometimes if my roomates order in food that I would love to eat...I grab gum...I know it sounds weird but the flavored gum like the sugar free berry and citrus flavor are pretty good.... Also orbitz makes the sugar free mint flavor..it tastes like chocolate mint to me...hope this helps!
