I actually do not believe in 'forbidden food', because as soon as I start thinking that way those are the foods I will binge on. Everything in moderation is okay. That being said, there are a few foods I can not have in the house because I am unable to exercise moderation: I can not have any good quality cheese in the house, it's my drug of choice. I also had to stop buying hummus. Candy and fast food does not phase me, but I am powerless over cheese and hummus.
What are your 'can't have them around' foods?

    To be frank with a 19 year old son and husband there are "can't have foods" in my house.

    I can test my will power in one of two ways...saying no to myself or listening to them whine....I choose myself...:drinker:

    The only food I can't have in the house is chocolate cake. I'm absolutely powerless and a bite here and there adds up quickly throughout the day! :sad:

    Cereal. Wonderful crunchy, milky cereal. Not even the healthy kind, I'll eat the entire box in a couple of days.

    Nutella and Trader Joe's cookie butter. Although with 3 kids and hubby, they sneak in from time to time but I pretend they are not there. They are spreadable crack.

    I just found a new one. Cake Batter Batter Batter pre packed ice cream from coldstone. It is not a "creation" from the wall it is in the fridge ready to grab and go. It's cake batter ice cream with cookie dough and brownie chunks. No crunch, no chewy, nothing but smooth with highlights of gooey chocolate and moments of buttery and sugar sprecked cookie dough...

    Ice Cream...it's amazing how quickly that 2 quart container disappears (and I live alone so I can't blame it on anyone else!!)

    Potato chips!!!! If they are there I will eat them all. In one day.

    I still have them - just in small bags with lunch every now and then. But no big bags in front of the TV..

    I find that if I don't keep it in the house I usually---usually----don't think about it and don't want it. Now there are days I want some ice cream and then I will go and get a SCOOP from somewhere and that's it. Otherwise if I had it in the house I'd turn it into many scoops. :o But I'd say soda, ice cream, chips (Doritos), premade desserts and candy are what I can't have in the house. So basically sugar! I do keep Lay's Baked Scoops to eat with guac, hummus or salsa sometimes but I don't eat them by themselves. My hang up is sugar sugar sugar so I just don't keep it there.

    However, I do have a husband and his hang up is cheese and snacky crackers or anything like that so I try to keep the crackers out of the house and I just keep the option of cheese to mozzarella and sometimes cheddar but that's it. No string cheese or he'll inhale them and he knows it's bad and can't help himself. I don't care for snacky crackers and won't look twice at a box in the cabinet so I keep them away to help him.

    Also, the husband loves a good Jack 'n Coke on Fridays so sometimes there's Coke in the house but since I've been working out and know how much it takes me to burn away all those liquid calories (and don't want to have to do that) I just don't even touch it! Run away!!!
