So, as of today I am in the lead for the 20 lb competition we are having at work, and I am less than 2 lbs away from winning

BUT! My awesome friends decided that I needed a congratulatory giant bag of chocolate truffles for pulling into the lead this week. Thanks guys! It wasn't mean spirited or anything like that, don't worry, they really are pretty supportive. So said thanks and opened the bag and made them each have one and then proceeded to take the bag around the building and share until they were (almost) gone. I had one. I don't think I need more than that though. I will try and pawn the rest off on some friends

That was very sneaky of them . I like the way you handled it though!!

Bahaha. That's awesome. Way to fight dirty Congrats on only having one!

Awesome!! Just keep your eye on the prize, the chocolate will be there when the race is over!!

Wow! That's awesome self-control. Seriously. Good job!

I got rid of all but 3 chocolates that I stashed in my desk. I figure a those 3 will last me a while. It's hard to eat a whole one they are so rich and sweet!

Congratts and great job!!

Congrats!

And Congrats on being able to stop with 1--being overly sweet and rich doesn't always stop me. Correction--didn't always stop me.

Next time they want to reward and congratulate you, perhaps they should go with flowers?

Way to go!

Thanks everyone, before now I could have easily chowed down on most of the bag without a second thought!

Congrats on all your hard work and self-control, truffles are my FAVORITE candy that would have floored my efforts for the day. I love how you handled it
