    Whatever crap is lying around the office. Usually bagels and Klondike bars. Never worth it.

    Barbells and bumper plates...or I just get out on my bike and hit the road. I use exercise to combat stress...I don't really stress eat.

    I keep my food environment pretty free of those foods...but there are mini pretzels and animal crackers at work (elementary school). So I cram them in my face. Nothing but lettuce and lean meat in my fridge.

    I can't eat cause my stomach is in knots if I'm stressed.

    So probably wine

    If I don't care about calories/sodium:
    - sweets (chocolate, cookies, cake)
    - nuts
    - bread (with margarine and PB)
    - chips, crackers

    If I want to stay in calories but eat a lot of something:
    - rice cakes (I bought 4 flavors last week as back up)

    If I'm trying to not stress/emotionally eat:
    - sit in the bedroom, cry, and do anything other than eat.self-harm

    I crave salt. Mostly, I've been seeking lower-calorie options: Skinny-pop popcorn, string cheese, cold veggie dogs eaten out of the package. So far, it's been working, but so far, I haven't had to deal with much stress. I suspect that stepping up my exercise has been helping on that front.

    I was just going to say this! I just found the brand today and gave it a try! I almost died, it was delicious. My husband and I split a pint of sea salt caramel and I almost felt guilty until I realized I didn't have to.
