Any other food hoarders out there? How to stop?

I have a drawer full of junk food. I slowly eat away at it. If there's something chocolatey in the house, I sort of snatch quick & hide it in my bedroom. Sometimes I just like to look at it. I tried to stop but it feels safe having the food there.

    so you guys both hoard food and you both have leg shots almost the same way for your profile pics, seeing a connection? LMAO no, I don't hoard food, when kids/family eats it up I moan and gripe and head back down to the store

    I have hidden bowls and bags of candy around the house. I have special treats that I hide from my kids (they are 2 and 3 years old, there is no way they would know about them even if I didn't hide them).

    I did have a bottle of rum but some 16 year old drank some of it last night. I get creeped out when people drink or eat from my things.

    Do you just keep them, eat them straight or eat them eventually?

    I eat them slowly. A piece here, a piece there. When I have no self control I will sometimes eat most of one of the stashes which is why I have so many because breaking a big stash into smaller ones slows me down.

    :love: lemonpoppyseed and rottenmind :love:

    I hoard food myself, although no leg shots until im skinnier >_< It runs in my family...growing up, my mom bought a property with two houses on it...We kept food in both houses, although the second was really a guest house xD

    We also turned a walk-in-closet into a food storage place...

    and kept food in the corners of every closet...

    I feel very uncomfortable not having food to last at least a couple weeks...I say, stock up on rice and stuff that you wouldn't really eat alone unless necessary. ^^ Also, things you need to prepare to eat ^^ That is what I try and do...

    ps: my mom kept enough food for at least 1-2 years at a time lol...prob 2. o_O

    O' :huh: so that is what food "hoarding" is all about. wow, guilty! I have deluxe chocolates, almond nougat, stashed away in a jar in my bedroom cupboard. You go shopping, you wonder past the chocolate shop, you want to buy/eat.......so you buy;.. take a small bite......wrap the rest up, take it home and Stash it! like you are now my prisoner, my sex slave....(remember chocolate is better than sex) you stare at it......but don't touch; after work, you look at it.......but don't touch; you're almost out the door to the swimming pool......you give it a long look.......but don't touch it. instead when you get home from swimming you busy your-self working out your clean diet for the day!
