What food is too hard for you to have only one serving?

history_grrrl

Haagen Dazs Vanilla Swiss Almond ice cream. 310 calories a serving (not counting the sliced banana that I add on top), and a serving is supposed to be a half-cup. Yeah, right. I'll never be able to buy this stuff again unless I'm prepared to eat the whole pint in about 20 minutes. (As they say, we learn by doing. Sigh.)

Desserts!! Good thing I love fruits and enjoy a serving of them with some frozen Yogurt

kjohnson001

Thin Mints. Those things are hard to resist.

I seen Thin Mint Ice Cream at the grocery store yesterday...it was SO hard to say NO!

Normally - crisps (or chips for the americans reading this)

Right now, given the medication I am on - EVERYTHING, even stuff I normally don't eat like ice-cream. Just reading this topic is making me crave food, especially pizza, and crisps, and cake, and cookies, and roast chicken with the skin on (the skin is the best bit!)

OK - got to go and get myself a pint of water now and wait for the cravings to go away.

potatoes..mashed, baked, fried, scalloped. yeah.

tessaresse

Nachos, Anything with cheese period it just kills me i crave this everyday!!

ShaRogan

CEREAL!!!! I'm talking about the good kinds like honey nut cheerios, fruity pebbles, the different flavors of special K!

Oh, where to begin? CARBS! Pasta, bread, potatoes...I will eat them any way I can get them. I make homemade bread and can finish off a whole loaf by myself. I also have a serious love affair with butter and cheese. If I go over my calories or fat for the day, 9 times out of 10 it is because of butter. Alcohol is another trouble spot. If there is wine, I will drink it. This is why I am a chubby vegetarian. Why can't I be addicted to broccoli? :-)

ooohhh anything chocolate omg to die for!

LuckyLeprechaun

when I open the bag of teriyaki beef jerky, it is impossible to determine what 1 ounce should look like. Therefore I destroy the entire bag. Sometimes in 1 day. OH the sodium. :embarassed:

msjaxn69

C-H-O-C-O-L-A-T-E in the form of candy. I haven't had a candy bar in over six months. If I have one, I'll never stop. Chocolate/Chocolate Klondikes also. Yeah, I have choco soy milk, protein powder and casein, but just to sink my teeth into a Hershey w/ Almonds, a Milky Way, Snickers. . .okay let me stop. LOL!

IsMollyReallyHungry

Skinny cows, mozerella cheese sticks, fiber one bars, and chips. I have quite a few but these are ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Ice cream... I always budget two servings, because one is just too small.

Oh... and bacon (my ex-roommate and I used to have bacon Sundays where we'd cook up a pound of bacon in the morning and munch our way through it until lunch)... and potato chips... and french fries.

jmgj27

Wine and biscuits.

It ain't happening.

I can drink one beer.

Buy a bottle of wine and have one glass. Suuuuuure.... :noway:

Jenscan

Alcohol of any kind, and Clancy's Puffcorn. I cannot keep the puffcorn in my house, even though one serving is pretty low in calories; I simply can't stop myself.

shallo

Bacon..I can easily eat a package of bacon. I'll be sick all day after though.
Cotton Candy..love it

I tend to crave more savory over sweets -- so my problem has ALWAYS been portion control.

What foods are too hard to have just a serving: Pasta! And french fries, definitely.

MeliciousMelis

Anything crunchy.

and PIZZA!!!

BamBam1113

When I started this whole eating better thing I had to get a restraining order from Cap'n Crunch....that ba$t@rd.

Qarol

Cookies and chips. In general, foods that you can pick up with your hands, are relatively small, and don't require refrigeration.

tomorrowisnotpromised

Any food item from PIZZA HUT, but especially the PIZZA!!!!!

shelly650

Chocolate biscuit cake....with malteasers......and marshmallows........and caramel!!

chrisyoung0422

shelled peanuts/pistachios.

mallorybriann

NUTELLA!

withchaco

i am not a sweets person.... it is freaking FRENCH FRIES... OMG i love them! i will bake just enough fries for my family, AND STILL eat off of my fiance's plate....

Same here! Not really into sweets, but french fries... when you make them fresh, they are super tasty.

DietingMommy08

That's my problem. At dinner, I serve myself a second plate. At the office, I cant stay away from the sweets. The office I work, there is always something to eat. To combat, drink more water and snack between meals.

Oh yes my office always has brownies or cake or something sitting on the counter for anybodys liking. Its so hard! N not to toot my own horn but im a good cook... and so if its that good ima go back for 2nds. :sad: Food in general is hard for me to stay away from... Being the depressed "fat kid" my whole life I always search for food on a bad day. :grumble:

hawaiianbeauty10

CHEETOS. Yup, that's pretty much it...just cheesy delicious cheetos!

liveyourlifex

chips or crackers.
if i eat them out of the box/bag, i know i should stop. but i keep eating
thats why i dont buy big bags when i go grocery shopping
instead, i buy the 100 calorie packs i bought a 100 calorie pack for chex mix and i still havent finished it! it came in a box of 5 and i bought it 2 weeks ago. i have 1 left though so its probably gonna be gone by the end of this week. but yeah, chips and crackers are my weakness!
