Quick update to let you all know how crazy I’m going today.

 Ok, it’s Customer Service week here at work, which means we play games, win prizes…get to wear jeans to work all week…and there’s an over-abundance of food here.  Every day I’ve arrived there has been a new candy bar, lollipop, package of cookies or some other form of sugar waiting for me on my desk.  Yesterday was “Dip Day” (a favorite dip contest)…tomorrow is pizza day…and today…the worst of all, is ice cream sundae bar day.  Luckily, the food is on the opposite side of the room, and I generally have no reason to walk over there…but my god…you’ve got to see what I’m contending with this week.  Oh yeah…and I have my period!!  (Thank God I took a 1/2 day tomorrow…I should be able to avoid the pizza!) 

 I’m enclosing a picture of my candy stash, the ice cream bar, and the room all decked out.  Oh yeah…and those huge bowls in the ice cream bar pic are bowls of hot fudge, caramel, and crushed up Oreos.  I’m convinced they are trying to kill me.

    I think it’s nothing a little C4 can’t take care of!! LOL They do that kind of thing to me at work too!! The venders come in and bring Panera Bread Bagels, Cookies, Russell Stover’s Candy, then the hosptial will have ice cream sundaes or cake or whatever to celebrate the monthly birthdays. My department has a luncheon for just about every friggin occassion you can think of! Ridiculous! Bless your heart! I know it’s hard, but you can do this..think of your progress! Keep in mind the craving is always better then the actual food. After you give in to your temptation you feel like “why in the heck did I do that?” and that just leads to beating yourself up about it, falling off the wagon for the rest of the day with the claim “i’ll get back on it tomorrow”. Just don’t do it! You can make it! I know you can! You know you can! Thankfully it’s friday and customer service week comes to an end! Plus you have a half day off so that’s a great thing! Enjoy your weekend!!
    Brooke :D
