    Crisps for me (aka potato chips). Before I could quite happily eat a share bag in one sitting. Sometimes 2 bags! So I simply stopped buying them when I tried to get healthy because I knee there was no willpower there when it comes to them.

    I've been doing this for 16 months now and I can have them in the house. I have 1 small multi pack or i actually weigh out a portion from a big bag. It still surprises me!

    I know if I was in the right mood though I could still eat them like I used to so I certainly don't keep a lot around.

    I bought a bag of snack size York Peppermint Patties to have on hand when I had an urge for something sweet/chocolate. That bag lasted about 8 minutes before I devoured the whole thing

    I have two that i try to keep out of the house, because i find it hard to control myself: peanut butter and potatoes of any kind but especially Yukon gold and sweet.

    Eh that's what I don't get. If you like the stuff so much, how is that better to never eat it again, versus learning to eat it in moderation?

    And yeah, the time I avoided buying my favorite hazelnut chocolates for months, when my sister gave me a box, I ate the whole thing... clearly that approach didn't work either.

    Crisps here too, and just salty things in general.

    I get multipacks with small portions in and low-ish cals to keep the fire for crisps damped down. I can eat a small packet and stop, but give me a share bag and I will eat all that without blinking.

    Quavers are a good multipack go to.

    Brie. Or any type of soft, gooey, melty, cheesy cheese. I could eat a whole wheel of brie.

    Ice cream! But I let myself have it time to time. Fried rice is also my kryptonite. I can't stop eating it once I start. With that said, I can also gorge myself on broccoli, zucchini, and other veggies, because I love veggies, but that leaves me with no guilt so who cares!

    I'm another one for the crisps. I CAN stop, but it's like slamming the brakes on and screeching to a halt, not a dignified restraint. I was at my brother's house last weekend and they had Mackie's bacon crisps (these are amazing, try them if you're ever in Scotland) and everyone was laughing at my magnetic attraction to them.

    However, I don't ban myself from crisps because that would only make me want them more! I just fight the good fight each time.

    Crisps for me too! I can't have crisps in the house, they are just too delicious.

    I also love Mackie's crisps. The trick for me is living in a different country although I have been known to fill half a suitcase with them.

    I basically can't have any high calorie food around in bulk. Chips, cookies, ice cream. Nothing is safe. At the moment while I live alone it works just to keep a pretty basic food environment. I know I'll have to work on myself when it's time to share my space with someone else/my family.

    100% this, it's such a struggle. I feel your pain, at this moment I'm fighting myself on going out to buy frosted animal crackers from Target because my womanhood is demanding it

    Special K protein chocolate peanut butter bars and popcorn. I cannot have them in my house at all! Especially the protein bars. I can fool myself into thinking I'll have one but before the end of the day the entire box will be empty :(

    ok "my womanhood is demanding it" is my quote of the day, that is off the scale good!

    Cheese Doritos and walkers Mexican spicy coated nuts, once they are open I can't stop. The nuts alone are 900 calories a bag but they are so delicious

    Chips and dip!!! I call it my kryptonite. I refuse to have it in the house but my MIL puts it out and I can NOT walk by it without eating it.
