"Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

I do best around people that are also health conscious but I work with all men and they eat pizza and fattening mexican food every day.

I love my coworkers so I feel bad when they go out to eat and I can’t go along. They’re really good guys. I’ll gain 15 pounds easy going with them every day.

Don’t tell me about having willpower or resistance because I have none of that. Knowing myself all these years, I definitely know that.

If I make the recipes in “aaj kya pakaaya” every day, I’ll gain weight even if I exercise. I don’t know how everyone in that thread stays so skinny!!

Why can't anyone of you help me? :(

Re: "Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

i don't know if i should feel bad or just laugh it off..

i am in the same boat as you.. i just can not stay away from food ah, good food!! you at least are restraining yourswlf from going out.. lol i can not even do that .. i have zero will power..i spend money on food like there is no tomorrow, if i am not cooking at home i need to go out/ order out...i have these weird food cravings...as much as i would want to eat healthy ..i know that is not going to happen (at least not in this life)..

Roti, kapra and makaan…these three things will never go out of business :omg:

In all seriousness though, my willpower sucks as well :frowning:

YOLO so eat it.

OR, why not go out with them and eat small portions or stick to the salad.

Re: "Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

Okay so if there was a big, yummy slice of cheesy pizza in front of me I'm only supposed to eat a small amount of it and leave the rest of it? Salad or cheesy pizza, i'm opting for the pizza because when everybody else is eating the pizza, i'm eating it too. I'm soo screwed when i'm in my 60s and i'm supposed to cut down on the bad stuff.

Re: "Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

Yes!!

What's wrong with eating a small amount and leaving rest of it? :)

Re: "Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

Yeah but that way, you're eating it too and not causing much future harm. You can always give the rest to someone else. Or if your restaurant does this, grab the smallest portion/size/slice whatever it is.

Or just eat whatever you want and just work it out later.

Aaj kiya pakaya is not we eat on daily basis. Once in a week fattening food is not bad but if you are regular to gym.

Re: "Out of sight out of mind" but there's fattening food everywhere

We're talking about pizza with all its cheesy goodness and the slice of pizza is brought to you, you don't choose how big the slice is that you get. I did one cool thing in that I gave up the garlic bread they give to someone else in my group of network engineers. But the salad and yummilicious pizza was all mine and I enjoyed every bit of that cheesy piece of heaven.....

Me thinks cheese and chocolate are made by the devil :(
