Office candy bowl

I'm 7 weeks into my tirzepatide journey, and 2 weeks into a new job. This new office has multiple candy bowls - frequently replenished, and easily visible from my desk. I've had at least four pieces this week. I do enjoy treats while on this journey, such as high quality ice cream - but i don't consider candy to have any nutritional value, and in fact, it's just likely to make me crave more sugar. Furthermore, I wasnt thinking about candy at all -- until it was visible to me. I went several days without having any....but now I'm getting more bold about it. I do not want it to derail my progress. And "showing will power" is not exactly my strong suit. It actually annoys me to thi k about how something that's designed to be a little happy reward for staff - has the potential to derail my progress. My new boss and coworkers all have great personalities, and are easy to talk to. Plus they're all in shape. I'm considering asking my boss if we could remove the candy bowl.

What would you do / what do you recommend?

Thanks in advance 🙏
