Why do I have zero self control. There's cakes in the office. I eat them. There's biscuits in a meeting. I take 5. There's a Friday morning breakfast run, I have the big one. There's sugar on my cereals and in my coffee. There's a snack machine waiting to.ambush me. There's a sandwich van that does warm pies. There's a couple of crumpets in the freezer that I can snaffle whilst the oven cooks my tea. There's a supper of cornflakes before bed. I could go for a walk at lunch time, but I sit and look at the internet. In the evenings I just slob out in from of the telly. 5 months and I've put on 1.5 stone. Wife is also not happy. I had a heart attack in 2020 and she rightly thinks I'm a bastard for not taking control of this addiction. She's right. I just need to eat 3 sensible sized meals a day, no pies, no cakes, no supper, no sugar, and do a little exercise and I could be a different shape. And at much less risk. What is fucking wrong with my brain, that does the exact opposite. Greed. Why....? Discuss..... Note to self .... just do what you know to be right..... To battle the snack machines and food vans I made sure I didn't have any money on me. Leave it in the car or just don't carry any on a work day. If your office is anything like ours, tell one or two people (especially women) you are on a diet and need to lose a bit for your health and you will get bollocked for the cakes and biscuits. Is work walking distance? Or somewhere safe to park the car half a mile away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just started Slimming World and something seems to have clicked again, seems dead easy to lose weight after years of struggle, hope I can keep it up. The groups do help, having a set system to follow along with the accountability element seems to help me.. This is next to the coffee machine. I am telling myself that the morbidly obese woman who bought this in, to celebrate some insignificant event in her life, has no great love of food. Kirkland cakes from CostCo are not worth shitting on. This time last week i would have already consumed 1000 calories. somewhatfoolish, Floatylight and Yoss 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never follow a vehicle and pull them over. There is a phone app and you can join WhatsApp groups which inform you of spot checks. That means that spot checks are not perhaps the best way to combat this. The use of mobile phones and the non use of seat belts is also an issue that I can see. So must other drivers.

I always presumed only Mrs Popsicle liked them - sounds nasty but I'm glad their not coming back because we always got parked up at the drive thru's as they had to make one up for her - hence why thinking only she liked them!
