It&#8217;s OK to sweetly state in advance that you&#8217;re focused on your fitness and figure and you&#8217;re hoping not to have to have that fierce fight with temptation. A nice healthy lunch or dinner out is great, and with that &#8230; you can order whatever you want! But when a box of chocolates or a basket of muffins arrive in your house, a struggle is sure to ensue. So with just a few days left, your mission is simple. Decide what you want and make it clear to those that love you. You can also drop this hint with the article I published last week,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fitzness.com\/blog\/?p=4323\" target=\"_blank\"> What are the Odd your Mom wants Chocolate for Mother&#8217;s Day<\/a>.
