What do you do when Sweets & chocolate are in front of you

I recently had a young child move in and now the house is filled with chocolate and sweets and I give in so easy, what do you do to keep away from eating "rubbish" when it's right in front of you and so easy to get hold of...i'm struggling big time!

    This is when self control and discipline come into play. Be strong and resist.

    Well, I have very little self control around certain foods, so I don't have them in the house. Why does a young child need those things? As an occassional treat, sure, but around all the time? And so much that you're that tempted?

    Get the stuff out of your house and offer occassional treats to the child. And if it's YOUR house, you have a right to ask the parents (if they're the ones buying it) not to bring it there.
