I have never been known for my self control, especially when it comes to food. More so when it comes to delicious sweet foods.
So I am currently biting back tears because of how badly I want ALL the reeses. All of them. And a payday bar. I want it so bad it physically hurts a little and every day it gets harder and harder to resist the sweet peanutty temptation.
Uuuuuuuuuughhhhhhhhhhhfucccccck
Let me clarify
I developed a peanut allergy when I was 22.
It isn't a sugar problem it's a "I haven't been able to have my favorite food in 6 years" problem

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Are you allergic to tree nuts? If not may be try nut butters like almond butter or cashew butter (and treats made with these). Obviously not exactly peanuty tasting but somewhat similar. There are nut free and allergy safe candies out there too that are quite delicious.

I am allergic to tree nuts, peanuts, coconut...
@LadyAlyxandrea I’m allergic to peanuts and tree nuts and numerous other foods. I usually check out allergy safe treats and snacks online and in stores. You may find something you really like among those.
I fight this same battle. I know this sounds crazy, but down a BIG glass of water. Don't sip it. Chug it. 8, 10, 12 oz. With your belly full, it'll shut down those craving signals in your brain. It's worth a shot. [hugs]

Have you tried the kemps chocolate yogurt with pieces of peanut butter resses? Well, if not, don't try it it's just too good. How about those paydays when you first take the paper off and you see the caramel glistening in the light? Don't eat those either.

I'm allergic to peanut butter that's why I'm screaming about peanuts
@LadyAlyxandrea Wow developing a peanut allergy at 22 would suuuuuuck. Maybe you'll grow out of it.
All right this is a bad situation. I can't stop eating, I used to weigh 150, now I am approaching 450, I have started to work my way out from under the pile, but there is a conflict between the reeses and the pay days, they keep blocking my way. I would ask for help but your all probably heading for the bathroom so you don't wet your pants. Anyway your busy, and I am now at 500.

I'm not certain. Currently there is no peanut butter within reach but I still want it bad enough
@LadyAlyxandrea LadyA there are no more sweet things for you to obsess over. I ate every last one! You will not see any until they get resupplied, and I have my eyes on them too.
@dalefvictor Well done you!
@LadyAlyxandrea I empathize. Ice cream and pound cake and cheesecake are my problems. ...especially the cheesecake. Good,luck! I have vowed no more ice cream once the two containers in my freezer are gone. Lol. It seems to me i’ve Heard that song before.
