    Chocolate...potato chips...doritos...pastas...well, just FOOD in general! lol
  • Tortilla chips and french onion dip and I add crushed red pepper flakes.....yum. I eat the whole thing in one sitting, usually one day a week, took this week off though, so I guess I have a little control :)

    Gourmet Cheeses. I love getting a cheese plate at places that offer them. If I buy some for home, I have to hide them in a drawer because if I see the cheese when I open it I go straight for it and will eat the entire block. I'm trying to add fruit & nuts with smaller peices but that has not had as much success as I had hoped...

    Pizza!! and for some reason CHIPS! Especially Doritoes - which I think deserve their own food group. I strategically do not go down the chip aisle or order pizza and I try to change the channel on the pizza commercials (brainswashing me). lol

    Ice cream - specifically Moose Tracks. I can't have a serving, oh no. More like 4 at a time. Just cannot have it in my house when I'm trying to eat at a deficit.

    ^^^ THIS. Entire pints of Ben and Jerry's (Chubby Hubby, anyone?) have magically disappeared in my presence. Not a pretty sight. Better for me to go to the local ice cream parlor and have a small cup of sugar free sweet cream or whatever they have that day.

    I cannot have crisps (uk) in the house at all. I just wouldn't be able to resist. If I am really craving them I now opt for Snack a jacks a rice cake substitute. However I have found by not all those nibbles etc in the house I crave them less. I am really looking forward to all the kids christmas chocolate disappearing so that doesn't 'talk' to me from the cupboard.

    Any kind of "cakey" dessert. I have no willpower when it comes to those kinds so I just don't buy them- ever.
  • Since I started my new lifestyle back in 2008, I not bought chocolate syrup. But biggest weakness was to put about a 3/4 cup of chocolate syrup into a glass of whole milk, and drink about 2-3 a day. Seriously. Now I refuse to buy it - Even over the holidays when a little chocolate syrup would be good over the deserts....

    Buffalo wings and Hot Tamales candy. Chicken wings are way too high in sodium for me, otherwise I wouldn't give them up.

    Anything with icing. Specifically those GIANT cookies covered in icing. Someone at work ALWAYS brings one in for birthdays or parties or whatnot. I know, if given the chance, I'd eat the whole friggin thing.

    I actually posted something like this yesterday!

    For me, it's cereal. I have no control. I can't just do one serving. I can keep it in the house (other family members eat it). I can even eat one serving dry.

    But as soon as I pour a bowl of cereal with milk, I'm gone. I could eat the entire box, and still not feel satisfied in anyway.
    I probably won't ever eat cereal again, though. I love it too much, and it's definitely what got me to the weight I was.
    I'm laughing so hard about this. There isn't a cereal that my husband hasn't eaten. I had to stop buying Lucky Charms because it would be gone in one sitting between him and the kids. Heck, hubby will eat about 1/3 bag of granola cereal in a sitting. Needless to say, he doesn't know where the mixing bowls are or he'd be eating out of them. I use to be the same way but now I totally measure and can control my cereal cravings.

    Used to be powerless to sweets, but I am taking my power back. There will be nothing that controls me any longer.
