Danger foods

We all have them!

 

Mine is crisps/potato chips, I could eat them all day everyday and never seem to get fed up of them.

 

I recently tried a system for over eaters which entailed making all foods legal. You have to make sure you have enough of these foods in your home so that youfeel secure in that you can eat them whenever you want, the idea is that once you've eaten as much as you like the 'forbidden fruit' doesn't taste as sweet and you then give up your obsession with it and then are able to listen to what your body wants.

Crisps were a big problem for me and still are. When I tried this system I went out to buy a huge box of them and within a few days they were all gone!!!Needless to say this didn't really work for me,I didn't give it much of a chance to be honest because I put on weight. The plan wasn't just about losing weight, it was about combatting obsession with food which should inturn make you lose weight but I'm to heavy to risk putting on any more.

 

Anyway back to my obsession with crisps, they are sooooo bad for me not just because of their high fat content but also because I eat so many of them that I just cannot face proper meals. I never feel hungry enough to enjoy anything nutritious. I am going to cut them out for a while and see if things improve.
