    My son baked chocolate chip cookies yesterday. I haven't had trouble with anything until them. The smell when I walked in. My head exploded. I felt like I was in a trap. I had a bite of one- it was everything I knew it would be. They were on the counter all evening and this morning. They better be gone when I get home I only have so much will power. I can resist just about everything but that really threw me.

    What exactly is a trigger food? Forgive me, I'm usually more astute but I can't figure it out. Triggers you to eat and get sick or to get upset that someone else has it or...?

    A trigger food is a specific food that sets off a course of overeating where control is lost.

    Oh, well. Diet Coke. It's not a food, I know, but talk about a gateway drug!!! Honey graham crackers. A serving size is two sheets. I'm lucky if I stop at one of the three packages that come in the damn box.

    me too! Those are just impossible to resist--I finally had to stop buying them since I can't hold myself to what they call a serving. I've lost count of how many boxes of those I've finished off while watching a movie!

    i like iwon protein chips in ranch (i buy them at wegmans) or health wise brand protein chips in ranch, bbq, and pizza flavors (which i order on netrition). i keep those around for times when i want a treat. the quest protein chips were so weird to me. they had no crunch!
