I am writing this mainly for accountability. I lurk alot on the boards and enjoy the information.
I think lately I've just been bored and it leads to eating things when I am not hungry or have just eaten. I am not craving a specific thing, I am not feeling depressed or upset and eating due to that either.
I no longer count calories but I just continue to eat healthy and I continue my exercise plan. My lowest weight was around 170 but now I am 175 however my clothes still fit me and some are even loose so I know I am maintaining.
Today I just ate a lot...after dinner I was a little bored. I ended up eating half of this peanut butter bar thing. Didn't like it too much...tried this other cookie I saw in the cupboard. There was 3 in a pack but I only ate one because it didn't taste great enough to eat the others. Then I got a pack of oreos with 6 in the pack...I ate only 3 which seemed to satisfy me.
Does anyone else do this?

There are no cookies, peanut butter bars or anything remotely binge-worthy in my house (that includes bread. Rice is only allowed in because it takes so long to cook) because I would do that.

Setting up a successful environment is key.

Yes, but I live with my parents and my mom buys a ton of that. Tons of candy, cookies, cake...everything you can imagine. I can't make it stop, I've stopped fighting...

I have roommates that buy crap. If it doesn't need refrigeration, I ask them to keep it in their room and they comply. Every once in a while I'll ask for A cookie, just one, and most of the time Joe will give me three. For some reason he thinks I need to eat more (could be that our mutual friend let him in on my secret that I can go days without eating). It's just some sweets I have a problem with. Maybe you could ask your mom to hide the cookies and temptations. Tell her it would just be easier for you if they were out of site. You know what they say "out of site, out of mind" that might work for you.
