Yes I always get a jump with chips, even if they are portion controlled 😓

My weakness is Peanut Butter and Honey sandwiches. Last two days I have been making them without the bread. It's a start. I know not to have chips in the house. Once I open the bag I don't put it down til it's empty.

Oh, Groatmeal, if only they had been well portion controlled! 😁 eddieg4591, goodness! Now I want a pbh sandwich too! Yum! And... I have four teen and young adult urchins living in my house. They bring the chips into my world! Thankfully, most of the time I can resist or have a few bites! Yesterday... Not so much. 🙄 Chris... I dont need your sass! But hey! The motion activated sprinkler is working! Well, it is keeping me out of my roses anyway! 😂💦

I started spending twice as much money to buy the individual bags of chips. I know that's probably disgusting to someone who is frugal or has no issue with weight control and portions but to me it is well worth the extra money spent. Yes I could technically just go grab another bag but I don't. Whereas just throwing a few handfuls on and overeating was super easy.

DP so do I and I am frugal. I want chips sometimes but I always overeat them when I get the big bags. Switched to individual bags and one is perfect and I have never went back for a second bag. One 16 count box lasted me 3 months, and my husband even helped lol.

Very good idea, Princess, but I'm not buying! 😁 We'll, once in a while I do for a party, which clearly we aren't having now. My kids or hubby buy them once in a while... Biggest sizes they can find! Thankfully, they are quickly consumed and out of the house! I did everything wrong yesterday... Didn't count didn't measure. Once I got started I also indulged in a grand dessert and a tiny bit of pop! Good thing today is a new day!

angel_face0145, good for you! That is great control. Most often, when I want a snack that hits the spot like chips, I pop a big bunch of popcorn. I get to chew a long time, it is preservative free, I add just enough oil to make it pop, I add salt... But not so much I gain a gallon of water weight! 😁

I buy individual also. Chips, fruit cups. All those things that for me are hard to resist just putting hand to mouth.

That makes sense, Melissa! We not only get chips but everyone has his / her favorite. I like the plain. Oldest is into hot Cheetos. Youngest likes regular. Both like Blue doritos and not red...etc... 😜 same with cereal. 3-4 different kinds. 👍🏼

Melissa I wished I enjoyed popcorn but I've never liked it even as a kid. Smothered in butter or plain it doesn't matter I don't like it lol. I think it's the hulls, I don't mind the taste, its a texture thing.

You haven't perfected your Chip Guard technique.

I know how you feel! I broke down & had chips & salsa the other day and then thought.....Oh great! Now I have to log this! Was it worth it? No!

Tatauu! Chips are just that hard to resist! Gosh, Princess, you have a shopping list for sure! Angel, I'm so sorry for you! Popcorn is so lovely! 😁 My only trouble is needing to floss right after, which is probably a good thing! 😁

Phil, sadly, you are so right! 😁 Sorry, monisham374, I'm sorry. I have no help to offer. I just have the free app. Roxy! I think we have all had something only to totally realize it was not worth it at all. I'd rather keep the great leaps in weight to be for something exceptional tasting! 😁

Everybody has their kryptonite. I know, I have mine. No worries, it's just one day. My wife helped me by stopping me from eating out the bag...

Cool Ranch Doritos is my go to chip of choice but fear not, I’m betting you’ll easily shed this and more on your next beautiful mountain hike! 👌😎😇

Yes, John, when I'm careful to weigh and measure and record everything, how much better I do! This time I just weighed me and had to record! 😁

60pack, doritoes are my man's favorite too! I'm hoping this will come off before I get out for a hike, but just saying that makes me long to go on one. All the public lands were closed for a while, but trail heads are open now!
