    I THOUGHT giving up Chips (All Types) and Soda (All Types) would be Hell...BUT to My amazement it is very easy; I just set a time and date and stopped. I was/am emotionally, Spiritually and physically READY for a Healthy Life...No more "in training", it was just TIME for Me to put it ALL Together, no more "weaning off", when you are READY you will STOP, just STOP!
    I think I agree with this. Food addictions can be eliminated if you stop eating them. & it's not deprivation if the food is not helping you in any way.

    Also your icon is amazing lmao.

    I buy the veggie sticks chips at Costco. It's like 250 for 68 sticks...I usually eat half and that satisfies me. It is on the plain side, but I enjoy them and I take longer to eat a stick than a potato chips. I need to try those pop chips.

    If I let myself, I could eat a whole bag of chips in one sitting! How about trying kale chips? You can buy them at health food stores or make them yourself, really easy and just as tasty, only wayyy less cals! :)

    Potato chips are my weakness also. I have replaced them with a granny smith apple and sea salt. Its usually the salt I want.

    Chips and Pretzels kill me, I can't stop once I start :( Usually we have a few friends over on Weds and Saturdays and they always bring a bottle of wine and chips.

    I go for Walkers French fries, quavers, wotsits - they're less than 100 calories a bag. Otherwise air-popped corn is great - I've got some yeast flake stuff to sprinkle on.
