What about taking something with that's healthier to eat while you're passing?

I am going to look for an article we had here on Bagels... kind of similar to the donut thing... Something like eating a donut a day is the equivalent of gaining 30lbs a year or something ridiculous... If you know just how bad it is for you (aside from 300 calories not being bad enough), then you might be able to walk by unphased.
Trust me - I am with you on this one... If there is a box of donuts in front of me, there is NO WAY I am just having one!!!

I know it's hard, boy oh boy. Someone once told me, those "donuts" or whatever will always be there. Is it worth it to give in now? I think Petunia is right the affirmations will help. A lot of good suggestions here, you'll do the right thing.

After this thread all I could think about was donuts this weekend... lol... and there are three Dunkin Donuts from the gym to my house... sigh... But now I am looking at it like this: If you want one later, go out and get one... ONE - and maybe just a munchkin at that!!! That is actually a good idea for me... so I think the next time I am going crazy about it, I will get a couple (two) of munchkins instead of a whole donut!




I had a pint glass sundae, delish by the way, yesterday. Only after I finished it did I realize, that it was a full pint of ice cream. HA! I feel pretty disgusting today.
Cliche here - tomorrow's another day. Pull your self up and start over tomorrow. Your human and allowed to have slip ups. Don't beat yourself up, nobody is worse on us than ourselves, right? Sorry, I see me in your words..... :)


LOL - I know what you mean on the ice cream!!!
not when I am drunk though : )
That might be the reason you felt "disgusting"... you might want to rethink the cravings... beer and ice cream... that can't be a good combo for your tummy.
LOL
my conundrum is this: i take public transportation home, and have to walk through a station with a dunkin donuts. they bake the cookies and donuts in the station, so it always smells really good. no matter how satisfied i am, and no matter how much i know that a good dinner is waiting for me at home, i have to use all my will power to resist stopping by and getting donuts!
i have given in once so far. each donut is about 300 calories, so i think about that a lot, and how i won't feel better after i eat it. but the issue for me is knowing that it is coming, and that i have to resist. its more a level of frustration with resisting day after day after day more than a problem of giving in.
does anyone have any suggestions on how i can make this not an issue? i am at my wits ends.
