Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

I have a problem this evening as I have to go to a meeting after work which involves a buffet.  I will be hungry and extremely tempted by all the goodies on offer.  As there's a gap between finishing work and going to this meeting when I will pop home, should I have a quick something like beans on toast to ward off the hunger pangs or should I try and resist all food at the buffet and have a proper meal when I get home?  Decisions, decisions....

I do think you should have something before the buffet. It will definately ward off the temptations.

Thanks CC, I think you're right.  That's what I shall do.  Then I can airily waive away the temptations on offer, saying, "I couldn't possibly, I've already eaten."  Please God give me willpower.

At the buffet you can be one of those who just picks up a few cherry tomatoes!

You will wake up tomorrow feeling glad you didn't pig out on the buffet.

I'll let you know tomorrow how it went.  I've lost six pounds now and am feeling quite determined.  One more pound and I'll be a quarter of the way to my target!

Thats great news. Focus on that when you feel your will power start to ebb away.

A triumph!  I had a snack before I went and at the buffet I ate - fanfare of trumpets please - two cashew nuts!  That was it!
