    Indian restaurants/take outs OMG keep me away if i can smell a good curry cooking i will follow my nose and eat 2 days worth of calories in one sitting! I know that no real food is EVIL however i think what they mean is what food do you lose control over. For me its a good curry. I just cant have a small portion.

    Yes that's what I meant but can't change it now...or can I...Anyway yes curry! Although if I ever have a korma I have to plan ahead to do nothing for days.

    I am not a big sweet eater but sodas are my evil food... I get massive headaches drinking them and I still drink them.

    Peanut Butter on a spoon... the chunkier, the better.... :-(

    Chocolate and pretzels used to be on that list, but I have been able to work through that addiction. Have been able to limit myself to 18 fat free pretzel twists (1 serving) and one piece of chocolate from a Weight Watchers, Whitman 100 calorie package (there are 4-5 pieces in one package)... I treat myself to this just about every day... some days I give myself a bonus of two services of pretzels and two pieces of chocolate... always documented... :-) but peanut butter??? can't dare go there yet. I don't "miss" it (been over 9 months since I had a jar errrrrr spoonful), but I know before I let myself have 1 serving, I have to learn that 1 serving does NOT = 1 jar.. .

    My trigger food (better PC choice of wording I guess) would be Skittles....and not just any Skittles...they have to be Sour Skittles!!!! And don't ever think about handing me anything other than the big bag of them.....I joined Herbal Magic years ago (and quit years ago!!! What you can't have peanut butter.....not bloody likely!!) and on their application they ask how you got fat!!!! I simple said that I had an addiction to Skittles, and that I was in a "programme" to deal with it. They did not find it funny....I did not find it helpful to be denied foods that I enjoy....so Skittles won!!!!! But just to keep things real....I do not buy them to keep in the house....I have to actually make the effort to go and get them from the variety store.

    Pretty much any Asian cuisine. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Indian, you name it. My biggest evil would have to be sushi though.

    I don't keep any sweets in the house (cookies, candy, chocolate chips, nutella, etc.) because I will always go right to it when I have a bad day. Like yesterday evening, I had a really bad day and was hungry even after dinner. If I would have had sweets in the house there would have been a binge which would lead to tons of negative thoughts, but I don't have that stuff around so the "best" I could do was a packet of brown sugar oatmeal, ha!

    Foods that mess up you marcos, overextend your calorie goal, and make you binge like a ravenous pig without any control?

    Ribeye steaks, Snickers, Ben and Jerry's ice cream, Krispy Kreme donuts, Synder's honey mustard pretzels, Jiff natural peanut butter.

    No foods are evil. You can have anything in moderation imo. The only foods I will "demonize" are the ones I'm allergic to and can kill me :grumble:


    Good grief, the woman is obviously talking about trigger foods. I'm sure she doesn't really think cheese is "evil". Some people do have incredible difficulties managing particular foods, even when they've wrest control over their overall diet. Not everyone successfully eats every single food under the sun "in moderation". Some people do come to the realization that, for examples, they have such a hard time eating just one Oreo that it's best they severely limit them, if not all together eliminate them.

    so you can't have an opinion that no food is "evil" and moderation is key? wow….

    This has already been covered, everyone is entitled to there opinion, word have been exchanged, people have explained themselves. Done yeah?

    Well, I DO have an EVIL food.

    Burger King onion rings.

    If I eat a few of those, a hazmat team is dispatched to my house to monitor the air quality.
    And plumbing.

    ***EDIT - Evil was a poor word choice, I meant trigger.
    It's like I'm a cheese junky.

    Baked goods (bread, croissants, buns) - all make me feel bloated, tired, gassy & sluggish

    Sugary sweets and chocolate - which = zits a day or two after

    Nuts - along with the chocolate above = cold sores

    And pasta - which isn't really a trigger food but I always get bloated and fall asleep within 30mins of eating it! :grumble:

    I just try not to bring them into the house.

    Wheat, potato and rice are my Kryptonite foods. I can handle all other food and portion it appropriately. Eating all things in moderation just doesn't work for me, it is best not to touch my 3 Kryptonite foods. When I don't eat them ,I don't even think about them. If I have a small amount I will crave them for at least the next 12-24 hours. It just isn't worth the hassle.

    PEANUT BUTTER. I can use moderation with everything else but that jar calls to me from the pantry until it is gone.

    My trigger food is any food that I really enjoy that my husband also enjoys. If we get a box of chocolates I'll feel this urge to eat all of them before he can. Or brownies! It's not fun when I'm stuck to max two brownies per day, but by the next day the whole pan is gone. He ate all my brownies!!! And they were goopey and warm and delicious and I wanted more!

    That being said I can normally control myself when I feel like my food isn't going to cheat on me.

    Not really any trigger foods, wouldn't have believed I didn't have any before I started eating well as I used to binge a lot. I find certain foods aren't necessarily triggers, but if I haven't slept enough I tend to crave the higher calories/lower nutrient foods a lot more, and the other trigger is if I I'm sitting beside "junk foods" I have a hard time moderating it, so if I want something like chocolate or candy or chips, whatever, I usually will buy individual bags or get myself a serving and put the rest away, otherwise it's too easy to mindlessly eat.

    I am gluten and lactose intolerant, so I avoid them, but they are fine for other people. No food is evil, as food really can't have a consciousness to plot to do harm to you. We choose whether or not to eat in moderation. If I do choose to eat a lot of one food, and go over my calorie goals, it's usually something like the special pizza my husband makes for me with gluten-free crust and non-dairy cheese, or some nice saucy chicken wings. But it's only one day, and I know that's not going to make me gain weight.

    Hahaha love how people take the word evil literally. "No food is evil, as food really can't have a consciousness to plot or do harm". Well done for changing the topic into one about semantics hahaha

    Peace
