Another Munchie Day (Tricia)
Today at work we had a junk food munchie day. Yeah, Like all of us who are stuck in our chairs all day need to eat more junk. Well, today's munchie day was a little different. A few weeks ago I was promoted so I had a desk change. I now sit smack dab in the middle of the department. And what is set up in the middle of the department? The food tables. I was grateful that I could pretty much turn my back to the food for most of the day, but when ever I had to get up..BAM..hello munchkins...cookies....cupcakes...chips...ugh...Well, I tried to plan ahead for it and packed more fruit to eat than normal. And I pretty much stayed away from the junk, except for one small piece of cookie pie that was delicious. So over all, I was pretty proud of myself. But oddly, I found myself to be more hungry today and ate all the extra food I packed. Interesting...Is there something in our brains that knows the extra food is there and it runs to tattle to our stomachs? How dare you betray me, brain! :-)

When on medifast I knew better than to pick at stuff. I never did. I knew one bite would throw me out of fat burn. And i wasnt about to waste my money on cheating just to wait 4 days to get back into fat burn. however, now that i am off medifast i find myself wanting to pick at this and that and the old mentality comes back back "just a bite. it wont count". but now i catch myself. i either dont eat it or i do and then count it. goo job being strong!!!! being off medifast provides so many more options and i that is something i struggle with!!!!

Oh.. the cruelty!! My hubby has donuts, cookies, baked goods, chips, and all kinds of junk food around him ALL day at work! I don't know how he survives it, I don't think I would. But for his birthday, his wonderful co-workers had a delicious veggie tray for him and didn't tempt him with a cake... how nice is that?
Good planning on your part to have other food accessible to you!! Way to go girl!! You don't need that other yucky stuff. :)
