Word of the Day: Temptation

Temptation is all around us everywhere we look.


It’s the urge to do things that we know we should not do.


Are you on a diet?

It’s hard not to eat chocolate cake or snacks, right?

It seems that everyone around you is offering you something sweet to eat.

You want to eat it but know you shouldn’t – that’s temptation.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on your opinion, the holidays are just around the corner, and the holidays are when temptation is the strongest.

Food, sweets, and alcohol are everywhere and abundant at this time of year.

With so much temptation, it is hard to stick to a diet.

I would say you must resist, but it’s the holidays – what the heck, you can get away with it for a little while– eat it now and diet after New Year’s!
