    I just started MFP today and I am already salivating over the following things in my house (which my husband & kids need to eat pronto, before I go crazy):

    Girl Scout Cookies
    vanilla ice cream
    chocolate syrup to put on the vanilla ice cream
    chocolate bars (my boss gave me a freaking box of them - mainly because SHE didn't want them around)

    It's actually kind of amazing these items ever stayed in my house this long without being eaten (by me of course). So maybe I have subconsciously been prepping to start in earnest.

    I will not eat these! I will, however, go eat the dinner I planned that's within my daily calories. :)

    P.S. My apologies if mentioning these items was cruel, for putting the thought of them in your head.

    I just looked up What I Would Need to Do For A Klondike Bar...looks like over an hour of my usual cardiovascular workout! It doesn't seem fair that we can wreck our diet in so little time!

    Welcome to the club!! I have been here for 20 days and I have went from eating anything that crossed my path and not thinking about it to obsessing over the calorie counts in everything. It is a lifestyle change and with me being ADD/ADHD/OCD it is very interesting.

    I started to punch it into my food diary "just to see" but I decided it was probably best that I didn't.

    I managed to avoid the Klondike Bar I'm happy and proud to say.
    Instead I settled for a handful of frosted flakes. Less calories and has taken care of the sweet tooth.

    I some times give in to the m&ms. But that comes at the end of the day after I have a lot of pre-exersise. calories to use up.

    Here's a quote for all you exercisers & body builders

    "Will power is a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it will get!"

    If I want something sweet, I usually will have a miniature candy bar, I keep them in the freezer, so while it thaws I can think about if I really want it or not. & I can turn a mini candy into 4 bites & really savor it.

    & Wingman like you I really enjoy sweet cereals, they are one of my favorite snacks & usually full of fiber & vitamins and stuff & low calorie.

    The only thing I can do when that happens is..... I make air popped popcorn, a little spray butter, seasoning salt low sodium and I dip the popcorn in PB2, very filling and yummy and no guilt!

    I've only been on this site for about 3 weeks, but one way I manage is to find out how many calories are added, calculate that into my daily allowance, and then make sure I also do enough fat burning exercise to match the calories. I also exercise BEFORE I let myself eat it. Half the time, after exercising I don't want it anymore. the other half of the time, I do and I eat it. So far I've lost 4.5 pounds so maybe this approach is ok.

    The pleasure is so short lived too! :frown: :grumble: :angry: :noway: !!! I have to constantly remind my self of how good I'll feel , the clothes I can buy not in the plus size, shoes don't need to be extra wide, mysterious pains I have may just go away! , I'll stop taking all these prescription medications! , joints will stop hurting, !!!! I want to live while I'm alive! I want to look good again! :smokin: :devil:

    Have some treats that are really worth it and last longer than a few bites!

    You know, it might be really satisfying to take that klondike bar outside and stomp on it with your righteous, vegetable-loving boot of justice. At least, that would be the solution I would wish I had thought of 20 minutes after eating it.

    I don't know...call me the odd man out, but if I REALLY wanted the Klondike bar - I would have eaten it. This isn't a diet, it's my life and I flatly refuse to make ANY food "off limits". Telling myself I won't ever eat cake, ice cream or something else deemed "bad" for me is me just kidding myself. And trying to do it? Well, it is going to make me resentful, grumpy and more likely to binge eat.

    Yesterday I had M&M's and today I had Bunny Grahams (like teddy grahams, but better in my opinion). Oh and don't forget the Birthday Cake Oreo's I had too.

    *shrug*

    I'm not living the rest of my life without some yummy goodness in it.

    Oh man, those Girl Scouts and their moms are ruthless at my college! More than half of my class in my program is trying to lose weight, and then those cookie boxes start showing up... It took some WILLPOWER to turn away from Thin Mints this time around, but I felt like a boss getting to high five the only other person in the class that said no to cookies.
