OMG! Just think of how many miles you would have to walk or how many hours you would need to work out just to burn the calories from that one goofy donut.

Be strong!

The donut is NOT calling you!!! You obviously are hearing things!! Just concentrate on your work!!! Talk to WISHers and eat those carrots. Also just think if you ate that donut how horribe you would feel You really don't want that. You are doing great hang in there!!!! Just a question. Now keep in mind I would have done the same thing so I am not in anyway trying to critisize but why did you look in the first place???

That feeling your feeling is your body burning fat and calories. Just sit there and enjoy the burn.

Keep eating that carrot stick.

Is there any way you can leave the room. That may help.

You can do it!!

I looked because the people in my office NEVER bring in GOOD donuts....and by now ( it is after lunchtime here) all the good ones are usually gone. I was just curious! So I lifted the lid and low and behold there sat my FAVORITE....actually, there was TWO of them!
I will just sit and chat on the WISH...
It doesn't help that it is TOM and I haven't been feeling well (too much info, I know)......

Thanks everyone!

If you can't share this kind of personal info with us who can you share with!!!!!

 

[CrzyforPiglet]

I agree - share away Kamy!! Just stick here chatting with us and before you know it you'll have either forgotten about that bad temptation or hopefully someone else will have taken care of it for you!! Be strong Kamy - you have more willpower than the donut. Bad, bad donut!! - I'm trying to hex it for you so that it'll stop calling out to you!

Cheers - laurie

You're walking through a dark cave, there are two lights ahead...one of the lights looks brighter but as you get closer to it you realize that it's getting dimmer and almost flickering out you quickly turn to head toward the other light- to your surprise this light gets brighter and brighter- almost pure radiance- you can't believe your eyes! And when you make it through the cave you realize you're where you've wanted to be for so long- if you had headed deeper towards the other path you wouldn't have made it to your paradise this early. That donut will take you towards the dimmer light- but those carrot sticks will take you right to where you want to be. You can do it!! Plus, the donuts have been sitting there way too long- if you're going to eat one it should be a warm one right out of the oven- not one that's been touched by several people who may have visited China in the past month. There now you want that Donut?

Kamy,

You're on WW, right? There are no forbidden foods on WW, even donuts.

If you really want that donut, you can have it. You just have to figure out what it costs, and if it's worth it to you.

First, calculate the points. (We can help with that if you provide a REALLY GOOD description of the donut in question.) Plain Krispy Kremes are 5 points, chocolate glazed are 7, creme filled are 8.

If you can plan a way to get in 2 milks, 5 fruits and vegetables, all your water, STAY IN YOUR POINTS RANGE, and still eat that donut, go for it.

One donut could be from 1/4 to 1/2 of your allowed points for the day. If you really want it that bad, have it.

Just know that you'll have to plan the rest of your eating for the whole day around that one donut. I hope it's good! And I REALLY hope that you can stop at one.

Be sure to write it in your journal. You might even want to highlight it, so you can look back in the days ahead and remember how good it was, and how expensive!

You guys are the best!!! Love the hypnosis approach!!! LOL!

KathyTX~ You are right, I already checked and it is 7pts....well, I only get 20 a day, and I have already had 8. If I eat the donut, that takes me to 15 with only 5pts for dinner....no thanks....
I will say no to the donut today and opt for a more fulfilling dinner and maybe a snack while I watch Survivor tonight!

Thanks to everyone. WISH helps me so much......I just love this place and all my new buddies!


Bad donut....bad bad bad donut....stay away....stop calling me.......LOL!!!

I'm so proud of you! You made the decision with your head instead of your tummy!

 

[airhead]

I'll tell you where! That donut has been in the hands of someone who just came out of the restroom! And no,they did NOT wash their hands!!! Still want that skanky donut????

 

[PRINCESS VIJA]

Have you seen that commercial where people in the office all take a doughnut, and then it promptly goes to their waist and they all look like they are sitting in innertubes? It cracks me up everytime, So, now imagine all your coworkers "wearing" the doughnut, doesn't that add a new dimmension to your day???

If that doesn't work, I think airhead's idea would, imagine where all those hands have been, and now they have been all over that doughnut! YUCK!!!

 

[kamgen]

I love that commercial!!!
I like the one where the lady gets a danish and it hangs off her tricep!! LOL!!! so funny!!!
Well, I am resisting the donuts so far! Only about an hour to go.....I think I can do it! Especially now that I am picturing people not washing their hands in the bathroom, then touching the donuts! YUCK!!!!

It is hard sometimes to resist certain things....even if they fit into my point range, I try to make sure I really WANT it before I give in......In the last 4mths I have only had one donut...why should I add to that! LOL!!!

Thanks everyone! I knew you all could help me!
