Dear Brownie,

I can't eat you. You and I both know that. The gluten in you would reek havoc on my digestive systems for days. Yet here you are, out of the boxed lunch I received at my meeting and sitting on my desk, staring at me.

We both know that 10+ months ago, I would have eaten you. I would have let my lack of willpower, lack of self-esteem, lack of feeling worthy of feeling good (physically and mentally) allow me to devour you in three [or less] bites. I would have wanted you so badly that I would risk the pain and humiliation you would cause. Then, after you were gone, I would have beaten myself up profusely for my actions, telling myself what I lowly sack of crap I was for being so weak.

Things have changed, Brownie. You no longer have me under a spell. You and your more attractive cousin Donut just don't do it for me anymore. Yes, I'm sure you are delicious, but you're just not that worth it. I don't need you to feel better anymore. That was a false feeling anyway. You and I are splitsville. Oh, you don't believe me? You think I can't leave you there on the desk and not give in to your temptations? Maybe you're right. Maybe I can't. Therefore, I'll take you to the kitchen where I'm sure you'll find your way into another's life before too long. 

Its not you, it's me. I'm a different person now. I want better for myself. I deserve better for myself. You're just not worth it.
