Mindless Eating Monday and gateway drugs

Luckily, my gateway snacks are relatively easy to avoid: popcorn and chex mix. I'm notorious for eating entire packages, didn't matter how large they were, in single sittings. I don't go to the movies anymore and I hold my breath when I walk near places that sell popcorn. I gave away most of the chex mix that people gave me during the holidays. I did binge on a couple batches when it was chex mix from people that I know make great versions, but man were my calories through the roof on those days. I allow myself to snack in moderation on pretty much anything that I want, but these two types of snacks and the many different flavor variations that they come in are off limits as much as possible.

You're a rockstar, LilyN! I know that homemade check mix is so hard to turn down! My finance's Dad's version is my favorite and so hard to not eat by the gallon! Good for you! I avoid the movies now because of the popcorn and the extra large medium cups you get now haha :) You're doing awesome! I'll be following you for more tricks and tips!
