    this may sound weird due to all the other foods that were listed, but cheese. I LOVE cheese. I could eat slice after slice. It's delicious. With 100+ calories per ounce though, eek!

    This x100

    I am a cheese addict!

    Cake or other baked goods. I tend to avoid them for that reason, lol.

    Popcorn. I don't even love it, but I can't stop eating it if I have it.

    GUSHERS! SO GOOD!

    Grapes. I'm really into them right now.

    French fries. Really any potato item.

    My worst one is the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs that come out around Easter - I will eat these until I am sick. Thank God they're only around once a year. Oddly enough, I don't have a problem controlling myself around the regular Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, just the eggs. I think it's the peanut butter to chocolate ratio like a PP mentioned.

    Haha my husband says the same thing!

    oh pretty much anything that you can eat out of a bag or container ;) chocolate, chips, peanut butter, ice cream... you name it! what helps me is to get a bit of it out in a tiny bowl or other small container (like 30g of chips, 20g peanut butter, you get the idea) and then really enjoy it. if I put a bit out and put the bag/container/whatever away it's definitely easier. maybe you could try that out? I also try to stay away from bad foods as much as possible, but I find it difficult to omit it altogether.

    Pizza and mexican food.

    I think I've only had mexican food once since I've joined MFP. It was also the day that I went waaaayyyy over my calorie goal...

    Dry roasted or salted peanuts and chocolate. Strangely though I can stop eating chocolate coated peanuts after just a few!

    Cookies. As long as they're delicious, I will eat as many as I can get my hands on, especially Oreos.
    I'm pretty bad with candy, although not as bad as I am with cookies. I started getting a single regular size candy bar instead of the $1 pack of 6 mini bars because I can't portion them out like I should; I just eat all 6 right away.
    Basically small sugary things are what I can't stop eating lol.

    Food! In general I find it difficult to stop anything that I truly enjoy. Broccoli and cauliflower... sure I can stop, but I don't enjoy them. Good moo shu pork or chocolate or chips or anything else that I actually enjoy eating and feel tastes good and I am just about done for. I have yet to find a balance.

    I really needed to see this post!! I was just sitting here thinking that I must be a super weak person because I try to say "I can have that in moderation.." and then I take a bite and I feel like I can't stop. I was seriously feeling pretty down about this.

    Mine would be pizza, big time. I want to eat until I can't eat anymore. Also different types of dip. Crackers and dip or chips and dip.

    Right now I'm at work and someone seriously brought pizza dip. I took two bites and now it's ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT!!!

    Anything crunchy/salty/cheesey. I'm also always shocked that other people don't have a complete mental inventory of all the food in their house, like they can just forget they have a bag of popcorn in the cupboard when that's ALL I can think about!
