Double Stuffed oreos are my weakness. I had about 10 last night, and I am currently eat them now as we speak. Please help me! I don't buy them, but my mom does regardless what I say! I don't know how to not eat them when there here!

    I totally understand... Oreos are my weakness too. Difference is I will not allow them in my house because I know I cannot control myself!

    Tell her to stop buying them, or just give them away to neighborhood kids.

    Sorry, I won't be much help ILOVEOREOS!!!!!! but an old trick of my grandmother"s is to put up sexy pics of women in bathing suits on refrige, snack shelves ... to remind yourself what you want to look like. It will make you pause for a minute and in that minute you have a chance to make the choice again. Hope it helps. :)

    Have her hide them if they must be in the house. If I am tempted by something, I read the label first and that usually does it for me. I can put it away easily.

    Open your mouth and look at your half eaten oreo cookie. That is going on your thighs. You are getting cellulite as we speak..

    10? That's nothing! I can easily eat half package. Eating just one or two isn't possible for me, at least not yet. So for the time being I'm just not buying them. I don't eat Oreo's I usually eat back to nature (organic) oreo "like" cookies that are just as bad as the real thing but soo good!

    I read the label but I cant resist!
    And the sad thing is she hides them from my dad, and I guess secretly me too, but then I find them!

    Reading the label has curbed many a craving for me - the calories just aren't worth it.

    If you have to have them, have a couple in the morning or after you workout. Never after noon! This might help you a little. If you can't control a small amount try to give yourself a goal of a week without any. You won't miss them after a while.

    Did you know that the correct term for the cream in Oreos is slurry? Mmm.... Slurry. The word always reminds me of wet clay...

    If you are the only one that eats them, take the bag and run it under the faucet and fill it with water now! Make them uneatable.
  • Maybe make a deal with yourself...for every oreo you eat, you have to do "x" number of situps or walk "x" number of miles. That might help. : )

    we don't allow that type of food in our house mostly because we don't want either of our kids having sweets
    but I agree with the others just think of how BAD they are for you and your goals

    if I want something sweet really bad we have frozen yogurt

    Put the bag in the freezer...they will be to hard to eat them as fast as you are right now...and by your 3rd one, you might be discurage. also, only take one out at a time. Take one, go sit at the table our in the living room, eat it. If you want another one, get up, go to the freezer, get one out, walk back to the livingroom, eat it and repeat. hopefully this will help with the amount that you eat.

    Don't banned the oreo from your life, just not as often and as many. Good luck!

    If she refuses to stop buying them even though you've asked her not to, either have her hide them where you can't find them or dump them down the garbage disposal.

    Have you mom parce them out into small bags of like 5... so you eat a full bag and go damn... bag is done but it is done and it is all good... if that fails get a lock box and have her dole them out to you on a limited basis.

    Try cutting down on them. Say you have 10 Oreos a day, cut down to 7 for a week or two and tell yourself after that time period you will only have 5 a day for a couple of weeks, then 3. Then try adjusting to every other day or two. It is a habit you need to break it gradually. I was like that with Frito Lay Original potato chips. I weaned myself from them and now I can enjoy a small bag of them as a treat every couple weeks. :wink:

    It's not an Easter Egg hunt--quit looking for them, and voila!

    Have them with a big glass of milk to fill you up. I eat my cookies and sweet very slowly I savor eat tiny bite in my mouth and i can eat one or two cookies in the time it takes my friends to eat 5 or so. And i am satisfied. it is only the flavour i want anyways after you swallow it it is pointless.

    funny thing.... I love double stuffed oreos! There are 3 packages in my basement at the moment for when I do want them. I could eat a box in one sitting no problem. What I've learned is that ido don't let myself get hungry I won't snack. I log everything I will eat for the day in the morning and stick to it. If I find myself getting hungry or leave a meal unprepared when its time to eat. I say to myself ill just have 2 cookies. Yeah ok. 25 cookies later I'm miserable. It happens. Don't beat yourself up just figure out what your triggers are and fix them. The quote at the bottom.of my page has always been this way. If you want this bad enough you will stop eating cookies! All the time I don't mean ever. :)

    Oh goodness, I love Oreos. They still only sell the regular ones here, can't get double stuff unless I beg someone to get me some on a trip to the US! But don't give up the good work. Someone recentlyl said to me, "Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels" and you know what, she's right.
