TEMPTATIONS

OK ONE OF THE OTHER DISPATCHERS MADE HOMEMADE BROWNIES YESTERDAY AND THEY ARE STILL SITTING IN HERE WITH ME!! SHE MAKES THE BEST BROWNIES I HAVE EVER EATEN(BEFORE SURGERY OF COURSE). BEFORE SURGERY I WAS A CHOCOHOLIC AND WOULD HAVE SCARFED UP 2-3 OF THEM BABIES ALREADY BUT NOW I JUST THINK ABOUT HOW FAR I'VE COME AND THAT HELPS A LITTLE. BUT I SURE WOULD LIKE TO DIVE HEAD FIRST INTO THEM RIGHT ABOUT NOW. BUT ALSO I KNOW I WOULDN'T EVEN BE ABLE TO EAT 1 BECAUSE I CAN'T EVEN EAT A WHOLE EGG RIGHT NOW. JUST WANTED TO VENT ABOUT TREATS BEING LEFT IN THE OFFICE AROUND ME.

ok, i just had a weird pic in my mind of someone setting there staring at a pan of brownies then bending down and licking the top of them so no one else would eat them.. lol.. ok i am a little warped..

AS MUCH FUN AS THAT SOUNDS I GUESS I'LL PASS ON THAT. IT DOES MAKE ME THINK ABOUT OTHER THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN HERE. WHAT IF SOMEONE ELSE HAD THE SAME IDEA AND THOSE OF US THAT ATE THEM LATER HAD NO IDEA. I GUESS I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT ANYMORE BECAUSE NO ONE AROUND HERE KNOWS HOW TO MAKE A HEALTHY SNACK!! MAYBE I CAN TEACH THEM.

Don't you just love it??  I'm sure that you would probably for real "toss your cookies" so to speak if you even ate one with that much sugar in it.....  You're worth so much more than that crap now!!!!  Look how far you've come and where you're going to be soon...you big looser!!! 

Take strength in knowing what those brownies do to your workmates.  Also know that you're doin so great to resist them and it won't be long that you'll kill the head hunger forever!

Ok so my husband recorded a few of those episodes from that weight loss guru, the "Make me thin" guy or whatever he is known by.  He did have a good point by saying that everytime you are tempted by something...for instance brownies...close your eyes and picture the brownie in your head....and then picture a huge pile of cat poop sitting right on top of it...kinda like a brownie dressing.  If you concentrate hard enough on that...you definitley wont want those brownies anymore.....GOODLUCK, lol.

Someone brought homemade banana bread at my office today.  I love banana bread but somehow I managed to resist.  Then about an hour ago, I passed by our office "pig-out" table (yep that's what it's called) and there was a wheat bagel torn in half long ways.  It looked kinda like a piece of you know what!

First of all, I would get them out of my sight !!!  I'm lucky where I work, the one lady that fixes all the "treats" has been caught coming out of the ladies' room without washing her hands on a number of occasions, so her "treats" are no longer a temptation !!!  You migh****ch the lady's bathroom habits

OH, trust me. I've been there. This is the bring food to work capital, I think. Constant food and constant good food. Every payday the teachers do a breakfast buffet..monthly our parent volunteers provide goodies, our praying moms group provides goodies..parents send bagels and cream cheese...vendors bring food, and we hosted 7 baby showers and 1 huge retirement party in the media center....sigh...at least some of the groups think of fruit! The worst was a chocolate cake gotten from Target...that's the best smelling chocolate I've ever smelled, and I'm not a chocoholic...I"m married to one!

This was my first week back to work and I am still on liquids. We had a catered lunch from Nancy's Kitchen brought in and today one of the pharmaceutical reps brought in pizza from Old Chicago. I sat there with my broth and jello. It was torture! But, I made it through!!!!!
