Oh god do I relate! I’m addicted to chips. I would replace multiple meals in a day with just chips🙈 Definitely the reason I gained a ton of weightvaleriev626 wrote: »Chips.

Probably chips.. I crave them almost daily and have a hard time limiting the portion.
Also I would say booze but honestly I’ve done pretty well with only drinking on the weekends, and I stick to a few classes of wine vs twisted teas or other high calorie beverages and I can easily fit 2 or 3 glasses of wine into my Daily calories0 -
Also chips for me. And wine.

Crunchy snacks with some fat to them - Potato chips, tortilla chips, Doritos, corn chips, salted nuts, cheese flavored crackers. And cheese, put me in front of a cheese platter and I'm a goner!4

I hear ya!
The funny thing is, it's not all the time. I can go for weeks not even thinking about starchy foods, even when I had them in the house. Then, "Wham!" it's all I can think of. No amount of distracting activities will work once my mind is set on this stuff and I'll eat every last individually portioned pack, all the while telling myself, "I don't care, I'm gonna do it."

Cake, chocolate, deep pan pizza and sweet pastries..
Basically loads of stuff if I’m not focussed - very prone to a snaccident when I’m not concentrating6 -
chips- I have to keep them in my car- because if i bring in the house I eat the whole bag-- oh well- I try to do individual bags and not buy any more-0

Fries!!!1

Brownies. I stop everywhere that sells them.1
-
Believe it or not those stupid barbeque crispy mini rice crackers. Last time I opened a bag I ate the entire thing, lol. No dinner that night.1

Sweets and breads are my weaknesses... and it doesn't help when the Japanese does American fast food way better than Americans do American fast food. xD 0
-
Vanilla wafers and peanut butter. One box of wafers and a jar of peanut butter is considered a single serving, right?3
-
Beer.
It's the fifth food group, and the base of my poorly constructed pyramid.2 -
It's a toss up between chocolate, cheese, and pasta. Or a cocktail. Only solution is to keep what I can't say 'no' to out of the house. I did compromise with the chocolate. I am able to portion out 7 chocolate covered mini pretzels as a snack and stick to it.0

1. Tortilla chips with Guac and Salsa
2. Ice Cream (Halo top is OK but damn that full fat frozen creamy goodness)
3. Cookies0 -
Potato chips, candy, cookies, cake, and pie. I don't keep these in the house because I will eat them all up. Oh, and Thin Mints.1

Mine is crunchy starchy processed carbs, especially after 10 pm, on stressful days. It can be triscuits, cereal right out of the box or store bought cookies. It’s definitely emotional eating and seems to happen once every few weeks.0

Ugh pastry, Nutella, cake, chips, oil...0

Sweets, peanut butter, cereal, and pizza.0

Flamin' Hot Limon Cheetos.1

I love sodas0

My worst weakness is crunchy salty things. Second worst is chewy chocolaty things. Third worst is cold creamy things.
So, I suppose I should question why I dwell with crunchy salty chewy chocolaty cold and creamy things.2 -
Definitely pasta. Actually, I plan to have a pasta binge day in the future, were I'll eat ALL the damn pasta I want. Normally, I rather not have any pasta at all than restrict myself to what is considered a normal serving. My normal serving used to be enough for a family of four.0

Really good sweets. I made my husband a birthday cake, and it's really nothing that fancy, it's one of those poke cakes. Chocolate cake, melted chocolate in with the sweetened condensed milk, and then homemade chocolate whipped cream. Damn it so freaking delicious. Ugh. I can't just eat a small piece. I want to eat the whole thing.0

Bread!!!! I started eating Ezequiel Bread (Low sodium) It’s a Sprouted Grain Bread0

The thing I have the hardest time moderating is crunchy salty things. Chips, cheese-its, crackers, etc. The second is probably cookies. Especially if I have them at home & Especially if they are fresh from the oven.
Other foods I can moderate OK, but don't always like to is pizza (I can not just have 1 slice and be happy!) and probably cereal. The amount in 1 "serving" is depressingly tiny. 2-3 servings is more like it. Also Tacos. Who has just 1 taco? (Hint: not me). I can't always moderate these foods. But I can limit the amount of times I have access to them.
Forgot one: That dang resturaunt bread! By the time my meal arrives I'm usually almost full on the stuff! Bonus if it's cheddar bay biscuits and famous dave's corn bread. "They" say not to "waist" calories on these things. But if it wasn't weird to order a basket of bread and nothing else I could make a meal of it and be happy.0 -
I have issues with 2 gentlemen. Ben and Jerry. They never seem to want to stop taunting me when I open the freezer.0

All of it, with the exception of beets, brussel sprouts, and anything pork, ewww.0
