What is your weakness?

As a child, we never had soda in the house. Very occasionally we'd have some left over for a party or we would get a bottle to go with pizza, but it was never "around". My mom didn't want to grow up and want it all the time.

It did not work. I love soda. But since college, I rarely ever have it. I used to occasionally get a bottle of diet coke, but I stopped about a year ago. But if it is in my presence, I will drink it all. Right now we have two half-full left over bottles from the mini-pizza party my work had for lunch and I will drink them all by the end of the day. 

This is why I don't have soda. I can't be trusted in its presence. 

 

Re: What is your weakness?

  • Anything PB and chocolate.  I will eat it if its there.  

    Also, sometimes just PB.  I've been known to take the jar to the couch with a spoon on a bad day.  Like today.

  • I just went to the market at lunch... I broke down and bought a bag of Milano cookies... why? Why?  I will eat EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. (I'm ready to put them in the break room so I won't)

    stress... I'm blaming stress... I'm so farking stressed right now, I could burst... or cry, but I'm not sure which would be better...

    Hug! I hope things get better soon.

  • ICE CREAM

    If we do not have multiple flavors of ice cream in the house, I go nuts! I seriously need to cut it out.

    We stopped buying soda a year and a half or so ago. We used to drink a lot, but decided we need to stop. Now I maybe have like 1 soda a week....which is probably helping me not get so fat from all the ice cream. I traded one evil for another.

  • Thanks... I tried calling my mom (cause she can help in this situation, really she can)... and she's not around...

    I just was bad, though... just told my coworker I put those cookies out there!  And he was munchin on some good carrots!  Poor guy--he'll give in to the cookies!...

  • I'm a soda freak too. We don't keep it in the house, but if we go out to dinner I'd rather have Pepsi than wine or any other drink. I usually will get 3+ refills.
  • Cake....ugh... any kind. Cup cakes are my FAV!! But if it's close and I know about it, it's not safe.
  • Baked goods of just about any variety AND chocolate. But especially baked goods. Pie, cookies, brownies, cake, muffins, donuts, you name it. Even cheaper, crappier ones. If they are in the house, I will eat them. So we don't usually have them in the house! My mouth is watering right now. . .
  • Also, when I read the title to your post, I had an old-school music flashback, and almost shouted MEN! out loud, in my office.
  • junk food of any sort.  chips, baked goods, pop you name it.  oh and also mexican food.  I can never have enough of that.

    OKAY then.  Chillin' Illin, mindin my business, Yo Salt I looked around and I couldn't believe this, I stare, I swear, my niece, my witness, brother had it going on like something kinda...ooh wicked, wicked...had to kick it...came to my senses and I chilled for a bit.  Donn't know how you do the voodoo that you do.  Oh well this is swell hell make me wanna shoop shoop shoop.

    At least that's how I remember it in my head.

    Anything with sugar for me.  And I can't stop.  Not so much drinks, but food items.  Baked goods, candy, anything.

  • Goldfish crackers. I could eat and eat and eat until I pop.

    WOOT! That's what I'm talking about!

  • Either chocolate or pop.  Even if I am not hungry, I can hear the cookies/candy/cake/whatever chocolate item we have in the house calling my name.  I gave up pop for Lent, and seriously, this is probably the LONGEST I have gone without my Diet Pepsi (sweet nectar of life!) since uh...high school?  I miss it SO MUCH! Can you tell I have a full blown addiction?!? Embarrassed
  • French fries!  As long as they aren't too greasy.  I could eat them until I popped if there were that many.

    This exactly!  Any kind of baked good, especially cookies, and I'm helpless.  I can't stop myself no matter how hard I try.

     

    And...yes, I thought this too, and totally started singing the entire song just like Aria LOL!  Haha, what an awesome flashback...one of my favorite songs!

  • Cupcakes.  I have a problem.  I really can't pass them up.  Actually, any sort of baked good is my weakness.

    DH and I go to Whole Foods all the time to pick up dinner.  We'll usually split up and he says he knows where to find me because I'll always be standing in the bakery section.
