Who can resist eating chips once you already had a few?

josephine0701

I love chips!! It wouldnt be bad if I can just eat a few but I wont be able to resist, and I would the finish the bag! So, in the end I always end up not even having one Anyone else have the same problem?

I like chips, mostly with salsa. I used to eat a lot more, the whole eating out of the bag while watching TV thing. Now I buy the healthier ones if there is such a hing and count them out and put um in a bowl. Th

That's all I allow myself. It helps. Good luck. (Sorry about the double post, I'm on my pad and it does that someti

Sometimes (there it went again!)

An open bag is an invitation to eat "just a few more". If you have trouble with this, put the number you want into a bowl; close the bag and put it away before eating.

I count mine out so I don't eat too many :happy:

u bet. chip addict - had chips today. just get the small bags - a SERVING isn't so bad. remember - this is about LIFESTYLE- NOT deprivation.
If you LIKE chips, have some, just DON'T over-do it and know you have to WORK THEM OFF. so drop & give me 20 push ups!

An open bag is an empty bag...have the same problem with cookies so I don't have any..I don't crave them unless I just have a little taste which never ends up just a little....

At this point, I am not able to stop at just 1, so I just avoid them completely. I'm hoping that one day I'll be able to exercise more self-control and I'll be able to have a few then. But definitely, not now.

If I count out my serving ahead of time. I will just eat the 15. YOu also will savor them and eat them slower..

I found the only chips I can limit myself with is great value ripple chips .. I can eat my 1 oz and be happy

any other flavor and I can't stop .. I even tried the lil 100 cal packs of chips back in the day and ate a whole box in 1 day :ohwell:

Hot chips (probably fries to you!) are hard to resist. Once my lovely husband actually ordeedr me a side of "three chips" when I told him I wanted some but only a couple...

If we're talking cold chips (crisps), I tend not to buy them because they are hard to resist, I think it's the saltiness. I've never eaten them very often, so not buying them is not a hardship.

I love chips. Chips and dip. Or chips and salsa. Practically any kind. Don't even get me started on Pringles and Cheetos. I can't just have one! I don't even buy them because I can't resist!

I buy tortilla chips now and occasionally eat potato chips if other people have them at a party or something. But I have to portion them out or else I have a hard time stopping after one serving!

i steal a couple from my kids, and never portion myself any, i do the same with mcdonalds' french fries, steal a few out before i hand them over..........

Yes I have a major salt tooth. I could go all year without eating sweets and be perfectly happy. Since starting MFP I purposely buy a bag for the kids in a flavor I do not like and every other pay day I'll buy the Special K Crackers that are sour cream and onion flavor.. 27 chips for 110 calories so I still get a taste now and then.

Im with the person who said an open bag is an empty bag. Ive tried portioning out into smaller bags but then I just grab another smaller bag. :blushing: So Im with everyone in I need to totally stay away from it for now. Chips and dip used to be my Friday night dinner while watching my boys on Supernatural.

I think it's the same people who are eating only 2 tbs of hummus.

I agree with counting out a portion and putting the bag away. I absolutely love Donkey brand tortilla chips, so I make sure I get my 8 chips a few times a week. Best 140 calories I use all day!

Motivation

If I ever get chips they're usually baked veggie chips

meshashesha2012

i can now. but that's mainly because they are so salty that i can get through too many without feeling like my lips are pruning up.

headlock_lynn

me, me, me! I crave them and can't eat just one.

SunnyAndrsn

I'm a fellow chip a holic. I simply can't have them in the house. However, when we do have them in the house (because that's reality), I will portion them out into baggies. Can't say it works every time to just have ONE bag, but it does help a lot.

OMG!! I have the same issue, so I stay away as much as possible. I try to do a single serving but keep going back and back for more, LOL! I love Pop Chips the barbecue kind, they are little bit better but doesn't matter if I eat the whole darn bag! LOL - - You are not alone sister! :brokenheart: :brokenheart:
