Willpower! Oh Yeah!

Today at work, we had our monthly Birthday celebrations, and since my birthday is in August, I am one of the people that decides what we will have. I chose Oreo Ice Cream Cake (Yeah, I know, Yum!)One of my coworkers actually made the cake herself and I was so worried about how I would handle this afternoon, without eating or hurting her feelings. So, I waited until people had been gathered for about 5 minutes before going into the kitchen, then I stood back and talked to someone else that was not eating, and when asked if I was going to eat some, I would say, sure, in a minute... So, I just kept hanging out and talking and eventually people finished eating and started heading back to their desks. Whew--- I just waited until most everyone had left the room, and then went back to my own desk without having any and ruining my diet!!! But, let me tell you... I sure did want some... ooooey... gooey... ice cream and chocolate...
