"Willpower is trying very hard not to do something you want to do very much." -John Ortberg

It is not unusual to see food outside of my office area on a weekly basis. I have been blessed to have my cubicle in the "party room".

I am guilty of indulging in these snacks from time to time. But today...TODAY is different!

A wave of anger went through my body when this food was dumped into the room. EVERYTHING on this table has sugar. NOTHING is offered that I want to eat. WHY isn't this all about me?! Hello! Don't you all know that I'm on the 21 Day Sugar Detox! I feel like the angry pigeon. I could write a book, "Don't let the Pigeon eat the Snacks."

Back to reality. I shouldn't be upset. Everybody has a choice. I'm proud of people that have the willpower to eat one snack or one bite and put the rest back. I am not one of those people. It's all of nothing. I'm going to sit in my cube and chug my water and try not to think about what's lurking outside of my cubical wall...
