I had to stop altogether. There is no way I can eat just one. My favorite were the ones with the chocolate on top and the cream filling. I could polish off 4 or 5 with coffee and a newspaper. So, like alcoholics do, I just stopped altogether.

I am not going to lie and say “now I don’t miss them” because that is so untrue. Whenever I drive by a Krispy Kreme or a Dunkin’ Donuts, I get the pang.

But I had to realize that if I wanted to stay healthy, I had to give the decadent stuff, the heave-ho. Four males in my extended family have Type 2 diabetes. So, better to quit now while my blood tests show 1 (1-4, anything over 4 and you are considered a diabetic.

I am 27 and I work with a guy who is 22 and can barely make it up the steps from the 3rd to the 4th. He eats McDonald garbage every day. Besides being expensive, he hasn’t made the connection that consuming McDonalds 5+ times a week isn’t helping his obesity.

Oh, yeah, back to donuts — he always goes down to the cafeteria mid-morning and gets two or three and one of those big cookies.

I don’t usually eat them either, but a glazed Dunkin Donut calls my name every now and then. :) Now you put in my head… too late, tomorrow.

Donuts will kill you. “The whiter the bread the sooner you’re dead.”

Not bad to indulge in donuts every once in a while.

I lost 90lbs because of a donut! More specifically, I started the health crusade after eating two Packzki http://tinyurl.com/22pmea on fat Tuesday and committed then and there to change my life. See, sometimes they are a good thing! :)

If eating donuts is a crime, then call me Al Capone!

Just reading this made me hungry for one, so I did the only sensible thing I could think of–I ate one! :)
