Eat, Eat, Eat................

Do you what I noticed about working in the office environment? People eat so much take out.  If your not careful you could gain 20 pounds in no time. Someone is always bringing in snacks or they have their little stash in the drawer and everyday it's fast food. Someone always says "I'm hungry, let's eat." I made the rule for myself this time, I will only get take out if it is salad or something non-fattening. I am seriously trying to lose weight and fast food everyday will do the opposite. The food they order are meals. You got your chicken, fries, salad, coleslaw and Pepsi or pizza, bread sticks and salad. Except for the occasional time where I am just about starving and want that greasy fattening food.  I really don't want my ass to spread as wide as my chair and have clogged arteries. Then there's the women who eat that food everyday and don't seem to gain a pound. How do they do it? I want their metabolism, I want to be able to eat anything I want and not gain weight. I laugh because those are the ones who are always hungry. I go home everyday on my lunch break to get a few things done and to avoid falling into the trap of eating take out everyday. As soon as the kids are back in school, I'll be off to the gym everyday working out while they are enjoying their take out.  I am truly lucky  though, I work with some really wonderful people who treat everyone in the office like family. God bless their hearts.
