Food,  Fruit

Fruit at Work

Every Wednesday we have this thing called “Ice Cream Day” at work. This is an event that was created by our administrative assistants where all the employees are invited to go and get ice cream for a couple bucks (in a cone or in a bowl) in the afternoon.Β  I am not sure how many of you have ever been in an ‘office’ setting…especially a corporate office setting, but whenever there is food around in the office people DEVOUR it! I am not talking like once in a while snacking. You put anything out in the office and people are like vultures, haha πŸ˜‰

Don’t get me wrong…I am a huge snacker! I am one of those people who needs to eat or drink something almost constantly or I will eat HUGE meals and that is just not good for you. I normally keep a bottle of Glaceau SmartWater by my side at work to try and keep my hunger down. If you have not heard of the SmartWater click on the picture below and it will take you there. It is a great water that comes in a great big bottle and is loaded with electrolytes but doesn’t have any funny taste. It is awesome! (not to mention, Jennifer Anniston is one of their promoters and let’s face it, she’s pretty to look at haha)

Anyways, what I am getting at here is that I don’t normally snack in the office. But if I do, it is always something that I have brought in for myself. This way I can control what I am eating and also I normally end up getting the things I really want, instead of the things that are just there. My neighbors at the office tell me that I have so much “self control” when it comes snacking. In reality, I really don’t…haha. I just do MUCH better with it at the office because I feel like I need to eat healthy while I am basically sitting alllllll day long.

So while everyone else was snacking on their cookie dough, strawberry, and chocolate ice creams topped with whipped cream…I was snacking on some yummy fruit. Check it out…

Watermelon and blueberries
See the SmartWater? hehe

While it wasn’t cookies & cream ice cream…it still was pretty good! I would much rather snack on fruit or veggies in general anyways, but sometimes when you are in the office and everyone is eating ice cream it can be tough. So this is my success story of the day. Another day of self control in the office. πŸ™‚

Have a good Wednesday everyone!
