Willpower

On Wednesday, right after writing the post on cutting back on sugar, I went to lunch with my dad. And guess what he brought me? A bag my mom sent to me of my favorite candies- Heath bar, Kit Kats, and Skittles. That bag sat on my desk for the rest of the afternoon Wednesday, and then I took it home, where it sat until this morning, untouched. This morning WEG decided he would take full advantage of my sugar cut-back, and picked up the bag to carry to work.

Willpower is a bitch.

  1. Girl I do the same thing. I will get a chocolate craving and end up buying something from the vending machine. Then it will sit in front of me for days before I give it away. The guilt of purchasing it is enough to torture me let alone what I would feel like if I ate it. Good for you though!!! XOXO

  4. Holy crap. I am so impressed! I turned down a cupcake at work the other day...and then today they brought in more! Saying no to a cupcake twice in one week is not fun lady. Not fun.

  5. Wow- I do not have that kind of willpower. I am more of the school of thought that if it's a gift or free, it's therefore calorie free. Hmmmpph.
