I HATE rice cakes.

Oh! How I wish my problem was staying away from rice cakes. At least it would be a healthier choice then my weaknesses.........LOL. I hate rice cakes. For real.........LOL.

But my problem would be chips of any kind. Regular, bar b que, doritos, fritos........blah, blah........

I NEVER buy them for at hime but the damn drug reps are always bringing in snacks to the office and they sit there open........screaming my name! LOL

It does stink when you have that "thing" that is so hard to resist. You are not alone. I may not share in the rice cake love, but I have my own demons!

Better late than never to fess up myself...I wish I would dump on crackers, pretzels, and other salty, crunchy stuff like I do on sweet stuff - I swear that's the only way I can totally stay away from it. And it is addictive - there are just no ifs, and or buts about it - so yes, the solution is to not buy it - stay away from it - just say NO, Kathy!! Even the good ones are bad when you can't control yourself (that would be ME I'm talking about).

So no, you're definitely not in this alone -- and they were always my biggest 'bad' food - I was never a sugar freak or ice cream addict or anything else - but man, those chips, crackers, cheese - ouch. And they are back and haunting me now...

Hang in there - you're not alone in this....Kathy

salty snacks, l ike chips, crackers, pretzels etc. are my enemy. I can't stop at just one.  I'm not a sweets/chocolate snacker.  I can have 1 cookies, 1 piece of chocolate...But if it's salty and crunchy I need the whole bag.

I've stopped buying them.

Here's a book we could all contribute to and would probably be a best seller among WLS patients - CONFESSIONS OF A CARBOHOLIC!  Or maybe we need a daily thread our here titled 'Carboholic Confessions of the Day' - LOL!! Well, its nice to know its not just one of us - its a nasty little demon that haunts many of us - so together we can maybe support each other and help each other through the really tough times.
