I'm a firm believer that saying something outloud (or typing it out, in this case) can help you fight it. I know we all have weaknesses when it comes to food, so let's get them out there so we know we aren't alone!
Okay mine are:
Pumpkin Pie
Sugary cereals
Stouffer's Chicken Pot Pie
Ranch Dressing
I'm sure once I read some of your replies my wheels will turn and I'll remember more.
Hi, my name is Toni ("Hi, Toni."), and I am addicted to chocolate. Especially when TOM is around. I find it very addictive and next to impossible to resist.
Another would be breadsticks. I really like bread, especially in the stick form.
Anything crunchy or sweet. I've learned not to keep anything like that in the house. If I want it bad enough I actually have to leave the house and go and buy a single serving size from a gas station or where ever it is sold. It has really helped me and my husband.

Fetuccini alfredo.
Spaghetti.
Pretty much any kind of pasta.

Chocolate, big time. And anything so small I feel that I can have "just one more" (i.e. "fun size" candy). Most other things I can find a way to work into my daily calories but chocolate just makes me go overboard. Even more so if I'm stressed.
Fresh baked breads with butter.
Ranch dressing.
Reese's pieces and cups.
Fresh popcorn with butter and cheese powder.
whipped cream
cheesy sour creamy Mexican food
Pasta with cheesy garlic bread
Chicken tenders (with above-mentioned ranch dressing)

Fritos
Guacamole chips
Ruffles
SunChips
...most chips
Most nuts
Trail mix (yeah yeah, I know it's not bad for you, but in the quantities I tend to eat it in, it is)

Fried and deep fried anything and everything, unless it's dripping with oil and not crispy (that really makes things unappealing)
its really awful how I crave the same CRAP EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!! only within the last week have I reeaaaally pushed myself to PUT the food items back on the shelf and say NO.
plus, it reeeally helps to not keep the food in the house. if I DO buy chips to eat with a friend, i have them keep it all at their house.
Haha, can I just say food in general is my weakness???
- pizza, especially if it's from Little Caesar's
- Cake batter ice cream from Coldstone
- gummy bears
- fried okra
- donuts
- the buttery popcorn you get at the movie theater
- dr. pepper
I have to add cheese, since I realized today that it's really hard to have a sandwich without it. I ended up adding a piece of swiss to my sandwich and it added 70 calories and 5 grams of fat. Blah.
Speaking of sandwiches, bread is a really big one for me, along with cereal. I'm beginning to learn that I eat a whole lot of carbs, most of them coming from the bread and cereal that I love to eat.
