So I broke down today and bought myself a delicious Non-Fat Short Peppermint Mocha with no whip cream. Then I was in even more trouble when I saw that delicious looking Gingerbread loaf with the cream cheese frosting and chopped fresh ginger. Starbucks is promoting the campaign Red, which I am all about, as it is the brain child of my beloved Bono. Would these calorie filled items put me into more of a holiday mood? Nope...I just suffered from a sugar coma that was only resolved with another bite of chocolate that I found in my office kitchen while I was tidying up.
Now I will remind myself that delicious treats do not equal the holidays. They equal tighter pants and lower self esteem. So I say bring on the treats, I will do my best to have my power shield on full force to block out those desires to eat myself into an oblivion. My true test will be this week-end as I head to my parents house to bake holiday goods. Lord help me...my husband wants his muffin to be a min-muffin, not a big ass Costco sized one!
