And then you'd just feel crappy afterward, right? And they're easily 500 calories each. Those several calling are a DAY's worth of calories. No protein to build muscle.

Pop a mint. You didn't want them anyway.

I can't help you. I have to have chocolate every day. I buy the 80% cocoa though so very low in sugar. Keep helthy snacks at your dest for emergencies like this.

No problem eat one and then go do one of the following for 30 minutes. They are all just over 500 calories for a 200# guy.

Pedal a stationary bike at an 80% effort

Run at 6.7 mph (9 minute miles)

Swim at a pace of 75 yards per minute

Okay. This works for me.. pull you shirt up and grab your belly. Can you shake it? No? No problem, have a brownie.

You can shake it? Well, if that doesn't bother you..go have a brownie.

Seriously, looking in the mirror keeps me honest most of the time.

There is cake upstairs here and I plan on eating a small piece. I can't say no but I can say no to a lot. Thank goodness the challenge doesn't start until tomorrow!

Go over and have one.

I'm not going to tell you not to, I'm going to tell you to stop torturing yourself and let yourself enjoy one.

What's so wrong with a 1/wk endulgence? 2/wk?

Ya, honestly, eat the brownie man..

You are not a professional athlete, that brownie is not going to hurt you...
Unless of course you are trying to become one, then walk away.
