    Home made bread.... fresh out of the oven with Amish butter spread all over it.

    Second that - french bread right out of the oven is perfection.

    Chocolate... ruined 2 solid weeks of MFP diary when I got given 2xcadbury roses, box of 30 ferrero rocher and 2x box of lindt lindor balls for my birthday. Tried to be good and spread them out but it just made every day go over in calories.

    Um refined sugars of any kind typically ruin things - chocolate, cookies, cake, muffins, & the like.

    This is my addiction. Add ice cream to the list, near the top. If it's small and I can down it in one mouthful, it's game over. Read: oreo doublestuff or girl guide chocolate mint cookies.

    My strategy is to simply not have it in the house. If it ain't there, it's not a temptation. If it is there, it's "Seek and Destroy"

    Cheetos, cheese puffs, cheese twists, any of those orange powdered covered snacks. I can spot that color from a mile away and I always get excited. It's just best that I don't have any near me.

    Italian Cream Cake. I love that thing, but it's horrible for me to have around, it's only the icing that is super sweet, the cake part is not very sweet, just well flavored and full of nuts and coconut, but the icing is so perfect with it.

    One thick piece laid onto a plate all nice and pretty turns into a second and once my brain and stomach get into the groove, I can never walk awy from it long enough to gain control and before you know it, the whole cake is gone. Then the sugar starts a number on my stomach and I feel like Pooh Bear when he got stuck in Rabbit's door.

    So I have learned to not eat it at all ever. It's the best thing for me because there is no self control with it. Walk away, look away, don't touch.

    Obviously you might have more than one, but which one is the most difficult? Mine is probably pizza, and the struggle also includes not being able to just have a slice. Do you abstain completely, plan a cheat around it, or do you substitute i.e. english muffin or pita pizza with low fat cheese?

    Peanut butter. If I have a jar of PB in the house, I get crazy and want to eat the whole thing in one go. So I just don't buy it - "if you can't eat it responsibly, just don't buy it" or sth like that ;)

    Donuts, scones, and cinnamon rolls. If I start reaching for those, I am in trouble. Also french fries, though I must say, 3 months in, I am finding it easier to pass on them. Tried one the other day off my son's plate at a restaurant and though it tasted good, I couldn't see myself eating the whole plate of fries like I used to.

    Trail Mix is my Kryptonite. I just stop eating it when I have it. This is the one food that I have avoided purchasing at all costs. :smile:
    I haven't had to cut out other foods except fast food, I just try to do everything in moderation.

    Bacon!! I could eat a whole lb. in one setting! Also, almonds (good for you but high in calories) and chocolate bars of any kind! I have to stay away from those foods.

    However, I recently reached goal and have learned to enjoy everything in moderation because my desire to maintain my weight loss is bigger than the desire to binge on Krytonite foods! LOL
