I have peanut butter everyday! and it's chocolate peanut butter. It is powdered peanut butter you mix with water and 2 TBSP has only 45 calories. You can find it on Bell Plantation website. A very guilt free pleasure that I enjoy after losing 140 pounds.

i'm addicted to Cap't Crunch, and i figured out why, when i'm in alot of pain, i want to scream, so crunching helps, but 3 weeks ago, i cracked my tooth on capt crunch, dh says i can't eat any more if they don't pay, so i've been sneaking it.

Salt...sour...crunchy...sweet...addicted to it all...and wish I had more willpower to not eat so much that isn't good for me and more of what is.

Actually as long as you have just a bit, peanut butter on celery really is a healthy snack!

I get addicted to certain foods 'seasonally' only because they're at their best or only available during certain seasons or holidays. Taffy apples, pomegranites, Peeps (only at Easter):), fresh fall apples, vine ripe tomatoes, etc.

You for got cherries and strawberries!

LOL! no way! we had a vasectomy, hysterectomy, and am currently on birth control pills! Triple protection!



Why are you taking the birth control pills????

If anything, after a hysterectomy, if it was total with the ovaries removed also, then estrogen would usually be prescribed...but I would seriously consider stopping the birth control pills because of the potential clotting issues.

Just my two cents...not meant to offend or meddle.

Yes, for a while it was grilled cheese sandwiches.

Amazingly, I haven't had a food addiction for months. But I've discovered that I LOVE chai tea and can't get enough of it. I brew my own and use honey as the sweetner and low cal creamer... W.W. points equals 1 per cup. I like the spiced vanilla, and I like it in my lovely tall clear glass cup. YUM!

sewingsuz 10-28-2011 06:56 PM

I have been doing the same thing and I like the celery with the deep groove. LOL

I love crackers and cheese, need it on hand all the time, and will have instead of a meal. lol
