Default evil mini muffins around the corner

My office is close to the kitchen at work. Somebody dropped of a big box of mini muffins this morning. I walked into the kitchen three times so far (water, water, water!) and didn't touch them. However, the day is long and temptation is growing... Grrrrrr!!!
I try to cling to my "I am so proud of myself" feeling but I am not sure if I can do that another 3 hours!!!! HELP!!

I believe mini muffins are like 50-90 calories a piece so if you could trust yourself to only eat one or two I don't think it would set your calories off for the day by that much. XD

I will trade you your evil mini muffins for my devilish Cheesecake Factory cheesecake with optional strawberry topping.

It's sitting there....in the breakroom.....taunting me.....

I have a hard time saying no to good muffins or cheesecake. I have no issues passing up possible sneezers at work/in big groups. You just don't know who stood over it and breathed hard while you weren't looking.

There. Ruined it for you.

Love the possible sneezers theory!! haha

For me, if I don't know the calorie count, I ain't eating it!! Maybe anal, but it keeps me away from random bakery store type things - which were a BIG problem in the past. Anyways if you're a calorie counter that might help, or go with the sneezing thing. That would have done it for me!

Me too with the "Possible Sneezers". Also, I use the "not everyone washes after they visit the rest room" then they reach into the bag. You just never know and once I get THAT thought into my head...it's easy to pass!

I have some evil mini muffins sitting on my kitchen table as I type this. My daughter made them for herself this weekend so she could have a small sweet treat to take to school this week. I have had 3 of them since Saturday, not all at once though. She gave them to me & I told myself they're tiny so they must have a tiny amount of calories. The truth is I don't know how many calories they have. I have thought about having another but they do not belong to me so it would be stealing if I ate another one. It helps a great deal knowing that they are not mine to eat.
