And the winner of a box of Figamajigs is...

Rachael B. from Grove City, PA. She feels tempted by comfort foods and treats brought in by her coworkers. Who doesn't?

I work for a great company called Earth Sun Moon. The whole company feels like one big family.  For our little "family" food is also a big expression of love. At least once a week, if not more often, someone brings a yummy home-baked goody to share with everyone. That means cakes, fudges, cookies, cupcakes, pies...you name it! I've been trying to cut back on heavy desserts in my diet, but all those sweets near my desk all day are killing me! If I won Skinny's Figamajigs I would definitely tuck them in my desk drawer and take them out in my moments of weakness. Who knows, I might get all my coworkers hooked on them too!
Thanks for all the great tips! I love Skinny!

We love you too Rachael! And for everyone else, click here to find out why Figamajig is one of our latest obsessions.
