    My guilty pleasures: Chicago style pizza, chile rellenos with rice and beans, Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk ice cream

    As far as I know, there are no "good" substitutes for those.

    I envy you. Most things I can eat in moderation, butI can't eat any of my guilty pleasures in moderation. If I eat them, it has to be more than what's good for me.

    Small bites and chew slowly. I noticed that I feel full before I know it. Oh and drinking water I try to have at least 8+cups a day.

    Pizza's definately a weakness for me.

    Pizza Guys have these things called Munchies... can't have pizza without Munchies and Ranch dip!! I could eat an entire order myself and wish I had more!!!

    Depending on mood:

    M&Ms
    Reeses PB cups (straight from the fridge)
    Thick, salty, potato-y French fries
    Pizza and breadsticks
    Chinese food (pork fried rice, crab rangoons, that kind of Chinese food)
    Chips & dip
    Bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast skillets

    Same here...I have found that if eat ice cream with a baby spoon it helps a lot..I know it sounds silly but it makes me slow down and takes a while to eat just a half cup. I get my ice cream and enjoy it to! :)

    The things I thought I would miss the most, I really don't miss at all...soda, candy, fried food in general. I miss Velveeta Shells and Cheese, anything Italian, and wine. I used to have a 1/2 or 1 glass of merlot at night but I feel guilty using my calories for wine...(insert longing sigh here...). I still splurge on a glass about once a week, and haven't COMPLETELY eliminated anything from my diet except for all soda, so when the urge is strong, I give in and have a "bad" meal. :drinker:

    Well, I am a carboholic and have no control when it comes to really good bread. When I indulge my craving, I go to the great bakery down the street and get a freshly made loaf of bread. The spinach/feta and cheddar garlic are my favorite. I know these don't sound terrible, but I can literally eat an entire loaf in a day. When I get it, I have to tear it up into four separate pieces and immediately freeze three of them.

    I also saw someone else put mac and cheese, which is always a favorite. The only thing better than carbs is carbs smothered in a blend of very high fat cheeses. Cheddar, Fontina, and parmesan.

    Oh and peanut butter. Right off the spoon. I never have this in the house because I have no stop mechanism when it comes to peanut butter.

    And sausage. I get maple syrup infused sausages at the farmers market. Twelve in a packet. They last about a day.

    A little of this, a little of that, a little of everything! But mostly ice cream and sweet cold icy soda!
