So, in my building (it is a small building with a training room and 3 offices), lives the Pepsi Machine Monster. When Pepsi man came in last week I asked if he would add Diet Sunkist to the machine and he said sure! So in it went...and the regular sunkist stayed as well. Mocking me.
If I could play sound with a still picture, you would hear the machine giggling...
So today after drinking my water (that was my deal with myself) I went and bought a diet Sunkist. With some classic foreshadowing I am going to show you a close up picture and you can try to guess what happened...
Yes. I put my money in and pressed the button. The WRONG damn button! I pressed the REGULAR Sunkist button and out it came. Well...down it came and sat in the tray. I literally screamed. Loud.
My coworkers ran to me. They thought I was hurt.
I picked it up like it had the Clap. I carried to my coworkers desk and muttered "take this home." She understands.
She gave me some change to buy a DIET sunkist.
The end.
It's very clear that the Sunkist is stalking you. Creepy!
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you!!!! Awesome job walking away from the sugar loaded, artificially colored beverage. You didn't break the streak, that is really great!
ReplyDeleteAmen! Great job walking away from it.
ReplyDeleteWay to go in resisting the urge to ruin your streak!!!
ReplyDeleteMind over matter at its best. Good job!
ReplyDeleteGreat job not drinking it. Sorry about the picture of Liv, she nabbed it out of a cooler at the 99 Cent Store and insisted I take her pic with it, then she put it back in the cooler and said, "But I can't have any because Amy can't have any because it's bad."
ReplyDeleteI asked why taunt you then and she just said, "Oh, you can show her how far away the Sunkist is. We're keeping it safe from her in California!"
lol Oh you poor darl,
ReplyDeleteI totally hear you about the addiction and how we sometimes go on autopilot without thinking (i.e. grabbing the wrong bottle.) I am seriously having trouble like this too - but with iced coffee. Not good *shakes head* not good at all (isn't that a line from a movie somewhere? Sounds familiar lol)...
Anyways, I also switched from the high cal stuff to the lesser low-cal one.. tasted horrible to begin with but I'm slowly getting used to it. Same calories (200 for a 300ml carton) but half the fat. I figure you gotta have your treats now and again...sigh ...even if it is the poorer cousin version.
Have a good day, Angelface xxxx
Yay - you beat the Sunkist into submission! That's awesome!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a funny girl!
ReplyDeleteyou know what's a good cure to not loving the sunkist? ..the two hour glucose test last week ..and having to down extra sugar tasting orange drink..i'm not so fond of it anymore..
ReplyDeleteand yay for the co-worker that gave you some extra change to get the diet! :)
LOL. Ah Amy, I would totally do that myself. Kudos for giving it away though. :o)
ReplyDeleteNice coworker
