OK, so You're doing really well but there's one thing you just can't completely eliminate.
You may cut it way down but not out.
What is it for you? For me it's peanut butter.

What's irresistable:

Bleu cheese on saltines

Werther's Originals

However, I never buy the candy anymore -because- it's irresistable, and I only very rarely buy the blue cheese for the same reason. These are my "potato chips."

Peanut butter is not really bad, I wouldn’t eliminate it for a diet, just cut back some. For me it’s potato chips. When I start it’s hard to stop. Now we have a rule, we can only eat them while watching a Seahawks or U of Washington football game. So twice a week at most.

I once ate a jar of peanut butter with a spoon in one sitting, I think it was about 18-20 ounces. I did get very sick to my stomach. I love peanut butter and can't buy it anymore because I can't control myself!

I have a couple of tablespoons of chunky peanut butter every day. It's on my fatty liver diet. Peanuts are good for you.

Pancakes with butter and maple syrup. I really shouldn't be eating them as I'm type ll diabetic. I had some this morning so I got outside for some exercise. I can stand & walk a bit but its mostly the wheelchair for me.

Luckily, I don't come in contact with these unless I go searching for it... things like pizza, really good artisan bread with butter, cheesecake, good chocolate usually with nuts. Peanut butter is another like others but I only buy it occasionally, chunky, and it doesn't last long. I buy just the nuts, no salt or sugar or other crappy oils in it. Pasta, I can eat a sinful amount.

That's not too bad. I prefer the 90% and according to the wrapper it's 200 calories for 3 pieces.
I just take one piece occasionally and break it in half and let it melt in my mouth.
Voila! Only about 30 calories.

There are so many things for me, that I'm better off just not bringing them into the house so they don't call to me.

But at this point one of my very favorites are the fresh bagels from the bagel place down the road. I limit those to one a week,
slathering it with an obscene amount of cream cheese and either cherry jam, or sprinkling the cream cheese with ranch powder and garlic powder as the mood dictates.
