Does anyone else find it hard to eat healthy at the office? I am constantly surrounded by candy dishes, potlucks and pizza…oh my! 

The non-verbal temptation of the food is usually bad enough but then you get the, what I like to call, “food pushers”. They do not take no for an answer. Sometimes just to get them to leave me alone, I will take whatever it is they are pushing and either give it (not push it) to someone else or throw it away. I know I can hear the collective gasp from all you Moms and former members of the Clean Plate Club but I feel it is my only option.  

I also hear comments like, “you’re thin you can eat it”. I worked hard to get thin and I do not want to blow it in a few moments of weakness.  

How do I stay strong when I just want to be weak? How do I make the “pushers” understand thanks but no thanks?
