    I used to have this problem, but since I started losing weight I have really developed an even stronger willpower and it doesn't seem to matter what's in the house I dont eat it because I know it's not good for me or my goals. (keep in mind I live with a woman who can eat anything and not put on the weight, so we still have junk food in the house unfortunately).

    Chocolate. I don't care what kind or how it got there....if it's there, it's going in my mouth!

    Im the same as MattySparky, there is still junk food in the house, I have two teenage boys, but my willpower is stronger than that.

    Plus, I do not deprive myself of anything, I take one bite and thats all.

    But if I did have to pick one thing that wasnt always in the house, Pizza Hut pizza :grumble:

    Chocolate is my weakness, I can leave it so long, then it gets the better off me :grumble: :blushing:
    It used to be jam doughnuts, but I can live without them these days :drinker:

    How's your son getting on now?

    Mountain Dew. And I haven't had any since September. And I might never have it again. I love it so much, at my last job, coworkers called me Mountain Dew Girl.

    I actually read somewhere that people more successfully resist a desired food when it's readily available. Something to do with a continual practise of willpower against it.

    Not sure I buy it, but it's certainly an interesting take

    Oh MAN! I would go another way home!

    For me...it's anything salty. I can't even go down the chip aisle. Example - yesterday I went down the chip aisle to get the 100 calorie pack Sunchips. Perfect.

    Um, instead I bought a bag of sour cream and onion chips.

    Thankfully, I stopped chowing down half way through the bag. Then I dumped the chips into the garbage - dumped the bag upside down so I couldn't even be tempted to eat anymore.

    But still...HALF WAY!

    I too have some junk here because of my kids. BUT, I cannot resist anything with SUGAR when that aweful mood happens. Especially cinnamon buns with creamcheese icing (mmmm Cinnabon), and Nestle Tollhouse Cookie with Icing bought from their kiosk. I have a 16" one in mt freezer. It is :devil: I love ICING!

    Brownies are my huge weakness. They don't last long in my apartment.

    Potato chips are another of my weaknesses, but I refuse to buy them anymore, so that's helped that unhealthy addiction go away.

    I am a total chocoholic! I buy the fat free choco pudding cups, and let myself have one once in a while, if I go cold turkey, I'll just binge on it later when I do have a chance. Like people have said before nothing is off limits. You know, skinny people eat junk, they just do it in moderation. If I have a pudding cup, that's okay, now if I have one box of pudding cups, that's not:bigsmile:

    I'm okay having anything in my pantry, as long as it's closed. As soon as the bag, of anything, is opened, it's no longer safe

    i :heart: cookies!

    i still buy the keebler fudge stripe ones and just portion them into baggies according to the serving size. for some reason it works and i wont open a baggie for one more and i wont eat two baggies. one is actually enough!

    i did make the mistake of not doing this once. big problem. i kept going back for 'just one more'. i wasnt logging my calories that day which didnt help for my accountability at all!!! not ever going to do that again!!!!!!!!!
