Office Candy Dishes Are One Of My Downfalls

I am a librarian. I work in a library with roughly 110 employees... less then 10 of those employees are male. This leads to all sorts of drama and issues including... DA DA DA... OFFICE *office office* CANDY *candy candy* DISHES *dishes dishes*(that is supposed to be a big announcer guy with an echo). So, pretty much on every desk in every corner there is bowl full or something fabulous. The desk one office up from mine has a good mixture of things including chocolate, runts, gummy lifesavers and more.

I can't seem to stay away from this freak'n bowl. I wish all the office candy would just go away. But no such luck, the bowls just keep getting refilled with new and exciting things. Today I had an almond Hershey's kiss, a chocolate mint square, and a tiny pack of gummy lifesavers. Thank God I did an hour of step aerobics this morning or I would really be hating myself. I guess eating 3 pieces is better then the whole bowl right?!

On another note, I don't see that magical 199 in this weeks forecast. It seems the scale is slow to move this week. I am okay with this. It is coming.

My coworker has a bowl that I actually buy the reeses peanut butter cups for! I have one a day. ALthough I havent had one all week...come to think of it. But yes, a 3 is better than 10!

Oh my, I feel your pain! We have an office candy dish that I cannot stay away from. How about finding some sugar free or weight watchers candy to put in the bowl, get your sweet tooth fix but don't blow your day. :)

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! That would be hell. We have lots of pot lucks, but those are easier than the daily flirting from a candy dish...
