What is your trigger food?

[Bren]

Was just reading, posting and thinking. Something I have not seen discussed much and I think it is VERY important for success on this WOE.
Foods (even Atkins legal foods) can cause a temptation and eventually lead to going off plan.
I found early on that Diet Soda is a huge trigger food for me. Not sure if it is an emotional or physical trigger, but I know exactly what to expect when I have one. Huge carb cravings.
So, I avoid it. To this day I think twice before I drink any diet soda. I could have had it with a meal and be totally satisfied after the meal, but no........ I am looking for something to put in my mouth. Took me a long time to figure out what my problem was.
This is why I found having a journal about what I ate, when I ate and how I felt when and after I ate was a great tool for me.
Anyone else have any trigger foods?

peanut butter
potatoes (even sweet - can't mess with em)
sugar free 'low carb' ice cream (I'll guzzle down 3 servings at a time)
'low carb' brownies

I can get away with alot and maintain, but can't mess with the above. I'm sure there are others...

Diet soda does me in big time... i really have to avoid it altogether now.

anything white, sugar, white flour, white rice, pasta, bread, potatoes ....white food makes me crazy hungry

anything sweetened with Splenda

and not really triggering for anything other then more of it is the cream sweetener and cocoa powder recipe of not2lates

Peanut butter...I just don't buy it anymore. I might later, if I can find a sugar free one to make the low carb peanut butter cookies. Although..maybe I shouldn't. Mostly likely I'd make a huge batch and eat them all myself.

Nuts and Popcorn!!!

I can't control it very well. I try to measure it out, but then I am craving them.

Ice cream...just kind of snowballs into other foods.

Nuts, cream cheese, nuts, sometimes heavy cream, and nuts! Not only do nuts totally get me off track but I crave them CONSTANTLY... and I can easily eat a big can in one sitting - and I have done that almost everytime I've had them... which has been way to often!
