Celery? (gag, I HATE the stuff, but heard once it even give u a negative

calorie count: takes more calories to chew it than there is in the celery).

Yah, those " lunch " fixings like bread, cheese, chips -- basics... thank

goodness mine doesn't care a lot for the sweets stuff but she does at times

and if I liked the stuff my husband eats... ice cream, chocolate syrup,

pecans -- I'd be in BIG trouble. Most of the stuff " they " buy at the

store -- I don't buy it... specially the ice cream and stuff cuz none of us

" need " it.

A lot of the things like boxes of candy bars I can ask him to keep at

work -- not just for me but I don't want my little one to have daily

exposure to it either... that stuff doesn't " get " me... it's the seemingly

innocuous stuff like the bread.

I like the " environment control " idea though -- even with kids I think a

" change in location " is in order... out of sight out of mind? Will give that

a try.

, I tried the out of sight out of mind thing when my daughter was

young. It is funny how they can find ways around your good intentions.

Candy, cookies, soda's were NEVER allowed in the house. It wasn't that

she didn't EVER get a treat, but it was special and not a daily or even

a weekly thing. We did popcorn sometimes, but very little snacking in

between meals. I didn't want her to become like me.......also didn't

want BAD teeth (in retrospect...something I didn't need to worry

about....she inherited her fathers PERFECT teeth.......he has never

needed a filling!). But as she got older her FRIENDS would feel sorry

for her and sneak her things....like candy bars, soda's. She would

" hide " the evidence in her room.......UNTIL Mom would MAKE her clean her

room.....then ALL was discovered. Well............she did inherit my

obesity.....inspite of my good intentions.
