 Ok im going to have to join TA (Tic Tac Addiction) I dont know why but in the past few weeks those little sweet pills sure are good. I guess if that is the worst thing I ever get into its not too bad. I do o****il the dreaded trip to walmart when the small boxes filled with TicTacs fly off the shelf all on their own and begin to stack up on the checkout belt. They must be made by Lays Potato chips because you cant eat just one. I love them by the dozens and must have them I Must have them. Well its not quite that bad but they sure are a relief from peanuts and cashews. So what are some of you guys secret addictions in the food division. I can at least vouch for no bad breath or smelling like a tropical breeze when I speak.

My 'addiction' has been Caramel Creme 'Bullseye' candies.  I used to just have a few in a day. Now, I'll have quite a 'few' ... so far, it hasn't affected my weight, but I know that I have to keep an eye on this.

Maybe I should check out the Tit Tacs instead LOL.

I do really well and don't crave anything yet. So far, so good. When I go to the movies I feel slightly deprived if I don't have something so my sweet hubby bought me a bag of s/f worthers originals. They are good. But I have only had them at the movies. I think what I really crave now is fresh pineapple and no sugar added manderine orange slices. Fresh pineapple is killer good.

My little craving is Teddy Grahams Honey.  They are a very good little treat.  Slightly sweet and a little pick me up!  Especially good for those carb cravings!!!

Ok so it sounds like we're all battling some demon or another - and I'm no different. My name is Iris and I'm trying to kick my Lucky Charms habit. Just a handful - dry - a time or two aday sure doe**** the sweet tooth just right. But dnag it - I don't need them. I've convinced my boys to hide the cereal boxes and not tell me where they've stashed them. 

I hear the little Leprechaun - he's laughing at me.

Leprechauns scare me...the visual of them laughing? Much more so.

Thanks to you, I'm sleeping with the lights on tonight.

OMG! That would probably be my all time number one trigger food. I could not dare buy even one box of those magic marshmallow treats for fear I would scarf them down in a day or two. That was my favorite ceareal before the diabetes monster got me.

It is so nice to see my friends here do like to have the treats in life. Im out of tic tacs at the moment so I am safe unless Dell my wife decides to tie me in the car and force me into walmart and watch the boxes fly off the shelf. Its raining up a bit over here today so I cant get out and break in some new boots which stinks.

hey Push- I bought David's kids some Tic Tacs at Sams Club last week - 12 boxes in the thing. Oh did that make a hit with them this weekend. His son loves the Cinnamon ones. His daughter was back and forth on which one she liked the best (she opened one of all of them) - she finally decided the citrus twists were her favorite.

Maybe you're just getting in touch with your inner child - yeah yeah that's it - that explains the cereal for me.
