For the past 6 months, I been really good at not eating things that are not good for my diet or unhealthy... ice cream, soda, pizza, burger, candy, cake.... but why is when my husband makes shrimp scampi linguine , i can't seem to say no and also can't stop eating it... sometimes i would go over my limit.... it's so delicious... by the time i log it in, i consume 875cal.... he cooks it though about once a month...

i felt like shrimp scampi linguine is my kryptonite ....

what's your kryptonite? what is the food that you just can't say no to?

    I'm not a big fan of candy, ice cream or cake. Mashed potatoes are my thing. I've found I can satisfy that particular craving with roasted potatoes which while not quite as good, satisfy the potato craving.

    My Kryptonite is definitely ice cream! Before I started on MFP I used to go to the store and buy a whole pint of ben and jerry's or haagen dazs and eat the whole thing! I can't have it in the house now or I know I'll do exactly the same thing again. I can't seem to stop at just one serving.

    Potato chips. I am so glad I don't have junk food in the house because I can sit down and eat an entire bag. I don't know what it is about them.

    Love the word choice. Mine is definitely oatmeal. To be even more specific: Maple brown sugar oatmeal. MMMMMMMM.

    Also chocolate, specifically kit-kats. Also Green-chili Cheeseburgers and beer... Sigh... The sacrifices one must make. O.o

    strawberry filled strawberry candies and Zebra cakes.. I can't keep them in the house or buy them, because if I do, I'll eat the entire package in one sitting.. that's why I've done so crappy this week.

    Yoplait Strawberry Mist Whips....I try not to buy them EVERYTIME I go to the store but I can't resist....Once I get them home it seems like they call to me...Instead of sugary sweets, I eat these which have tons of carbs...UGH!!! That is why they taste so damn good!

    Tortilla chips... and/or those "food should taste good" chips from Costco.

    I won't have them in the house.
