My friend Amanda had to buy donuts for the newsroom. Her son’s photo ran, and there is a rule — if your or your family’s photo makes it into the paper, you have to bring donuts. 

They aren’t the most diet friendly treat but Amanda knew her duty. Before she went, she said she was going to get a muffin or two for her and I, since we are making an effort to eat better and lose a little weight.

When she got back she had two snack packs — one was apples and cheese, the other was veggies and  cheese. Nice healthy snack. And easy to eat at the ol’ desk

She opted for this after seeing the muffins and chocolate chip muffins were not an options. Good for her. it takes a strong woman to say no to chocolate chip muffins. It also proves that having a diet buddy is beneficial! 

Now, the real trick will be to not eat the whole thing in one setting…I’m already half-way through the apples
