Donut envy!Donut envy!

Way to go, Kat, you avoided the donut trap :) After I hadn't eaten them in a while though, I didn't really crave them like I did in the beginning stages. I think I had donut withdrawal, lol. It was fortunate that no one put donuts in front of me then, because I totally would have caved. Now they kinda make me nauseous because they are so sweet. Why do offices always do the donut thing? I brought in a fresh veggie tray and dip on my birthday and they were gone in a flash. I think a lot of people would respond positively to healthier alternatives at work...maybe if they offered fruit, whole grain muffins, small bagels, cereal bars, etc., they wouldn't have to have donuts so often."

And they didn't bring the glaze kind, but chocolate sprinkle and cream filled ones too (my favorites!!). I was so jealous of all those people that could get one or two, espically the skinny ones :mad: I had a very bad case of donut envy!!
But, i stuck to my guns! I'm really glad i made breakfast before i left :) No donuts for me. I would LOVE to have gotten one, but one donut leads to another..."

I find the only way I can resist those situations is to eat too. I just need to have something healthy to eat. If I sit and watch people eating pizza or doughnuts I'd go nuts. I just run and get some fresh veggies or something (similarily to what thintowin did!) And munch away. It's not nearly as nice as the pizza or doughnuts would be......but at least I'm not staring and drooling ;)"

I had a similair experience yesterday at work. Someone bought pizza for all of us. I knew it was coming, but I left and went to subway and brought my sandwich back to my desk. When the pizza came, I just ate my sandwich. Then I was full, but all night long I was craving pizza, especially when commercials for it came on TV!!"
