Snack Attack

I am having a super difficult time with the whole "food log" thing...and calorie counting. But I am keeping track and making mental notes of what I munch on :D I do so well up until around 3:30-5:30 when I have crazy snack attacks for anything I can get my hands on. The problem is I work in an office environment and my manager always brings in the WORST things someone in my position can eat. Cookies galore.. chips..soda..etc... I try my best to avoid this god forsaken area.


On top of that there is constant cake, pies, and running through the office as a reward for all of our hard work!! Literally I have been offered a slice of this, that, or the other every day. It's such a challenge. We get lunch on the house at least 2X a week which usually includes pepperoni pizza. Fortunately, after all of my whining and complaining about how there is "Too much food in this damn office" (verbatim:) my direct manager brings me trail mix!



And after expressing my need to avoid all of the delicious sweets that have brought me to where I am now, my manager no longer offers me sweets and goodies. What a great boss! It's nice to know that everyone respects my health journey and actually supports it.
Spread the word to your family and friends and ask that they be conscious of the items they bring around you as you are working to have self-control. Kudos to those who have a stronger will-power!
