    I pretty much have control over every thing but hummus....can't quit eating it. I bake sweets daily and I'm good with those. Hummus and pita chips yep def my weakness.

    Bread, bacon, cheese....all the good stuff.
    :angry:

    Sir, you and I could EAT.
  • Chips and salsa - I could eat myself into a salty, delirious coma if the texture of the chips is just right and the salsa's good...

    Cereal - if I don't portion it out and put it in little baggies right off, I WILL eat the whole box in a sitting.

    French Fries - mouth is watering just thinking about it

    Tortilla with butter and salt - simple, quick to make, and even quicker to stuff in my face. I have to make sure if I'm going to have one, it's when I'm not in the house, or it has to be the last tortilla in the house because I know I'll be like "just one more..." and look down 10 minutes later and the whole pack is gone.

    Avocado - favourite food since I was a small child. As a kid, I would pass up candy for avocado with salt sprinkled over it. I could live off of them now if I didn't get migraines.

    Biscuits with butter an honey - *salivates*

    Oreos, Nutella, chocolate cake and ice cream, these all used to be my trigger foods. If I took one bite, it was all downhill from there. But I'm stubborn and i refused to let a damn cookie get the best of me, so i started testing my self restraint over time. Now I have a tub of Nutella, a Devil's food chocolate cake AND nutella brownies that I baked a couple of days ago, all sitting in my pantry, and it's no big deal. I'll eat a bit and I'm satisfied. So yea you CAN learn to eat these foods in moderation. Self control is everything.

    Mexican restaurant chips and salsa
    Movie theater popcorn

    Thankfully both are easy to avoid.

    It's a toss up between Mcvities Vhocolate digestive biscuits and Ben & Jerry's cookies 'n' cream ice cream.
    Needless to say I don't buy them very often.... :/

    Potato Chips - once I start, I can't stop. If I never start, not a problem. There is an open bag in the pantry and I can leave them alone. I suspect movie theater popcorn would be the same way.

    I just found Salt & Vinegar almonds. Fortunately, I only bought a small can, because I was obsessive about eating them until they were gone.

    I starting popping corn myself stove top. I just store it in a gallon size ziplock, so I can just close the bag and eat the rest another day.
