    We have cookies in the house for the kids... and it's hard not to eat the leftover macaroni and cheese and hot dogs after we feed them. It's really just MFP that keeps me on the straight and narrow. I always log my food in the morning or the night before so that way I'll know how eating extra with affect my macros and it makes it easier to say no.

    Fresh baked warm melty chocolate chip cookies... I bought one of those Nestle Tollhouse cookie dough tubs for the kids. BAD IDEA!

    I guess any chocolate chip cookie will do. I visited a friend with lung cancer yesterday and she gave me a 12 pack of Panera mini chocolate chip cookies for the kids. While I was driving home they were just looking at me, so I had to have one and then I put the them in the back seat. That cookie of course made me go over my calorie limit.

    anything Rice! Love rice too much to give up. I sabotaged all my Low Carb dieting with just the smell of cooked rice. What can I say, I am asian and a rice lover ;)

    Blueberry glazed donuts. Actually, I could make a seven foot long list. Bread, cheese, meat, sweets. I go crazy for that stuff.

    Oreos and chocolate chip cookies. I don't have much of a sweet tooth but with those, if I have them in the house, they will be gone in 2-3 days. I only buy them once every couple months...though when my bf's family buys them for me, I can't avoid them (and I don't want him eating them all either).

    Potato chips.

    I used to eat a large size bag of potato chips in one sitting, usually 3/4 times a week. I haven't had any in the past 5 weeks, and thankfully am not craving them. I won't even buy them anymore because I don't think I'm capable of eating one serving of Doritos. :)

    And if you tell me to eat "baked" chips, I will stab you in the eye.

    Lean beef. Since muscle weighs more than fat, eating all this hamburger has been making me pack on the pounds. I need to get my diet in check and stop soon before it gets excessive.

    dunkin' donuts iced coffees and coolatas...

    I didn't know, but recently found out, that you could specify that you want these made w/ skim milk. Saves a lot of calories, which is good because I love the coffee coolatas!!
