The Goodies are Rolling IN!
Looks like I'll be putting Liz's commitment to steer clear of the holiday goodies to a test beginning today - right now the building management company is serving a hot breakfast downstairs in the lobby - so far nothing has tempted me because I had a steaming bowl of oatmeal when I came in, so pouch is satisfied with that.
However, one of my co-workers brought in a huge tray of homemade cookies - I think I saw chocolate chip for sure and not certain what else is under the foil, but I'm not looking, either! I know I can't have those - way too much sugar and fat - I'll be dumping all afternoon just from smelling those suckers!!
So it has started in my office - I think the only thing that will really, really tempt me is if our one contractor sends in their famous almond biscotti dipped in Godiva chocolate - OH MAN, those were to die for - nothing better than that melting chocolate after being dipped into a steaming mug of hot coffee...OK, sorry about that...wandered off into a distant memory of decadence!!
But I'm sticking to my guns and my commitment to stay away from those temptations - wish me luck!!

I know you can do it, Kathy!!! I am lucky that I work from home on most days and do not really have to be tempted by trays and trays of stuff. Even when I do stop in my office, we're a small company, and we don't have too many things lying around. I go in, pick up my paycheck or drop off exhibits, chat for a few minutes and then I'm gone. I couldn't imagine having to walk by a tray of goodies all the time. I think I would be the tiniest bit tempted, but then the fear of dumping gets that tiny temptation to go away VERY fast!!!
Hang in there...you'll get through it!!!
