I agree with you on eating in moderation. I don't like to deprive myself of anything, but I really truly cannot have cheese puffs, cheetos, anything of that type in the house, I will eat more than necessary, and I will feel horrible about myself the next day. My roommate just bought some, and I want to toss it into the neighbors backyard. :P0

Ice cream, sherbet, frozen yoghurt... those giant ice cream sandwiches made with big round cookies....I am powerless in their presence.
Happily, with 4 kids (3 are teenagers), none of those chilled temptations are around for very long...0 -
pizza is the only thing. I know it's not bad but I also know my weakness and I'm sure portion control would be thrown out the window if I had pizza, so easily done, I don't have it.0

rolls; any kind of chips (bagel chips, pita chips, tortilla chips, even popcorn chips)0
-
Cooler Ranch Doritos. Dinosaurs and Sharks Fruit Snacks. I will eat the entire package of both in one sitting. You'd think the salt content would kill me alone!0

Dorito's are the DEVIL! :devil:
Amen to that. I have an addiction and cannot have ANY chips in my house. Not even the baked ones.0 -

Ice cream , now I buy ice cream bars or popscicles that is fine because it is portioned out. But when I have ice cream I want a BIG bowl0

French Fries and icecream0

The list is endless..it depends on my moods
Ice cream, chocolate, cookies, candy, chips, and without a doubt cakes, cream pastries and cupcakes.0 -
Frozen french fries. For sure.
But after reading this thread, I am very grateful that I have never tried Nutella! Seems to be a highly addictive substance, kids!0 -
Home-made fettucine alfredo with cajun spices and sauteed red peppers in the sauce.
My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
Every so often I make it and allow that to be all my calories for the day - breakfast, lunch and dinner.0 -
I know this seems strange, but I am basically better off having whatever in the house.
It was the same as when I quit smoking (about 16 months ago). I carried one cigarette with me for about 4 months after I quit. That way, I didn't feel like i couldn't have one. I could have had it, but chose not too. It's the same with food. I remind myself that I can have something, but then stop and think about my progress. (Today doesn't count, we weren't home enough to make me look at anything).0 -
Poptarts, cookies, swiss rolls. Anything soft and chewy and sweet and easy to grab and eat. Its hard to say no to those things!0

Me vs. chocolate. Chocolate ALWAYS wins.
ha ha funny. Yep chocolate for me. Anything that involves chocolat: brownies, chocolate ice cream, chocolate cake, chocolate bars.
When i do have some at home and hide them I always find them!!!
I still have chocolate though but ina healthy form: chocolat hot powder and chocolate fudge smoothie from PC's blue menu products(only 80 cal.) so when i have craving i take one and then i'm ok.0 -
i keep a minimum amount of sweets, there is no just one end all be all bad food for me. I have a sweet tooth. Luckily my hubs doesn't like sweets and the sweets my kids get consist of fruits & yogurt so there is not too much temptation around here.0

Others in the house don't share my enthusiasm for a healthier lifestyle and we typically have lots of chips, cookies, pop, and other unhealthy items. I just have to use sheer will power.
wow you certainly have good willpower. i live alone and i just can't have any of those otherwise i fail. And i guess i would fail badly in your house (lol!) my willpower is: if I don't see it then i don't taste and then i don't want it. Especially for chocolate...0
