10.21.10 — Meager Offerings
Or to be specific, offer: this sad little leftover piece of danish. It's not always piles of french fries, acres of pizza or baskets of weird international candy. Sometimes, the hardest things to resist are the lonely little bites that would be so easy to just grab and pop in your mouth as you walk past. Think about how easy it would be to just slam that half danish in your mouth. A couple of chews and it's gone. So easy.
But then that'd be the easiest and emptiest couple hundred calories I would have had in a long time. Sure, I'll admit to pausing for a second and entertaining the thought of just downing it, but only for a second. It's not worth it. Even if I weren't closing in on my weight loss goal (might be hitting a huge milestone this weekend), it wouldn't be worth it. And therein lies the battle I have every day, most of the time several times a day — is it worth it or not?
