If it comes in the house... it will be eaten LOL
I have a sweet tooth, as well as a love of chips/crackers too. I just have to limit what I buy :D:D:D

Personally, I think willpower is way over-rated! That's why I'm in the fat quilts for fluffy people group :-D

No self control when it comes to chocolate, fabrics, fishing gear.

I have to admit chocolate is the worst for me. I crave it so bad sometimes that I feel like a chocolate junkie. "Must have Chocolate now."

looks like most of us have the same problem with will power over chocolate! We have these chocolates here called caramello koalas and the are cheocolate in the shape of a koala with caramel filling, and they are soooooo good!!

I also have very minimal willpower when it comes to fabric. I think I do well resisiting until my hubby nods at me when showing him the pretty fabrics online, then its smoke poring off the keys as I type as fast as I can before he changes his mind!

I have willpower over sweets (except M&Ms), but have no control over salty snacks, love popcorn, chips, nuts! But I am working on willpower over these.

I have no will power for chips. I love them. I don't buy them unless it's for work(I've got a physical job so I think I can work off all the calories I eat there... :roll: ). If I bring them in the house, they are gone. My kids even check my lunch bag everyday to see if I brought any home....lol...I'm smarter than that. I buy a big bag and leave them at work now!
