I wish I knew how to quit you, (fill in the blank)!

  • Popular Post

I want to give up chewing gum. I chew gum because I have coffee breath. I recently went from caffeinated coffee to decaf only. Today I stayed away from the coffee entirely and drank bottled Water. My breath is better and I survived without the gum. It's also got to be healthier drinking water than coffee. But I don't know how long I can do this.

So "I wish I knew how to quit you",

Gum,

Coffee,

And movie crapcorn!

What's the monkey on your back?

Gosh my favorite horrible snack- wise sour cream and onion chips.....haven't had in awhile but once every few months they pull me back in....damn them, DAMN THEM! lol

Why cheese?

LipstickLady,

I need to quit eating so much of it. I love cheese! Its the best! But I just eat too much of it. I need to start replacing it with something different. I have laughing cow with an egg just about every morning, then a cheese stick, then shredded cheese on my tuna or chicken, then a slice with dinner. That's about 250 calories worth of cheese most days! Kinda of high when I'm averaging 850 to 900 a day ??

@AngryViking: Buy the Mini-moos (the little individual containers that they use in restaurants). Each one is only 10 calories. I'm with you, coffee without cream is a non-starter for me. But using the individual servings keeps me from going overboard. I allow myself two mini-moos per day, most days. (Sometimes I have a third. Sssh!)

He's 6'2" beautiful brown eyes. ..full head of well groomed hair. Amazing kisser.

And you are all talking food? HA

Oh..and I shall never give up cheese. As I move further into maintenance I migrate toward small quantities of STRONG cheese. I notice I do that more and more..bring on flavor, fat - but in modest quantity.

I went out tonight and amazingly only "tasted" the most delicious nachos ever made. It makes me feel like a normal human that I didn't need to wolf them.

I'm with @@CowgirlJane re the deliciousness of strong cheeses and their ability to keep me from going overboard on cheese. And yes, I could go way overboard on cheese. Everybody has their slippery slopes, and cheese is only one of mine.

Last night, for instance, I had 2.5 ounces of top sirloin with an ounce of Stilton blue cheese melted ever so slightly on top of the steak. Wow!

I wish I knew how to quit saving and keeping clothes I know lager fit .

Ann - I think we need to have dinner together. ..that sounds heavenly whilst fitting my plan. Should it fall on a Fri or Sat night. .a glass of red would go well.

I wish I could quit you delicious, salty, crunchy, Lays Potato Chips....*long sigh

@@roundisashape -- JIF!! So many chemicals but SO GOOD! Honestly, it is the best tasting Peanut Butter out there! lol. I try to switch to real natural peanut butter but it just isn't the same. I also need to lay off the peanut butter. I have gotten into the habit of having peanut butter on multigrain crackers with my meals. I HAVE to stop! And I never used to be a peanut butter fanatic but now I can't stop!

@@esskay77

Have you tried the JIF natural peanut butter with honey? It's not "pure" but it's better content than regular JIF and it tastes good. Maybe that will help you wean off the regular stuff.

I was I could quit pretzels. Those are my weakness. Couldn't stand them before surgery. My favorite are the Pretzel crisps in everything flavor. Yummy!! Also chocolate is quite tasty; but I can easily eat it in moderation now.

Fyi the quest bars are on sale on groupon. Idk how much of a savings they are but just sayin lol
