My sister is making brownies :(

How do I keep my motivation with 3 pans of brownies in the kitchen? Do I go in with a blindfold on and feel around the fridge for a slim fast shake???Do I also plug up my nose with tissues so I can't smell them??? Those are actually serious questions, because I'm not sure how to resist them. I LOOOOOVE brownies. Advice please.......what should I do??? Do I put an essential oil under my nose so I don't smell the brownies? Do I block my peripheral vision? Any advice would be appreciated.

Great job Terry! I'm getting back on my treadmill today since a migraine took me off of one for about a week now.
OJ- In an 8 oz cup, there is the equivalent of 17 packets of sugar. I was really mortified when I learned that. But I love v8. I put some lemon juice and horseradish in there. Soooooo good. And it has 1/2 the carbs of OJ.

I think its good you had the brownie. Maybe calorie swaps like OJ help too..I carb cycle and dont really count calories but lately Ive been trying and I did lose a few more pounds. I do feel like I need to enjoy my food though and if I dont it doesnt work for me or Im not happy. I only waste fluid cals on wine or beer...I drink water and green tea.
