Help I did it again!

I need suggestions from successful ways not to gorge on the things that are good for you but high calorie, etc.

I know dark chocolate is good for you, I like it really dark.  Every time i buy a bar to last 4 days, I eat half or more.  Every time.  Also walnuts which are great for you but not 2-3 hands full at a time.

Any suggestions for keeping that kind of eating under control.  I don't eat junk food or drink soda or alcohol.  Both of those foods have tons of fat and calories.

Thanks for listening!

My suggestion is that as soon as you buy the candy bar or whatnot you split it up into individual portions and only eat from that. When I know I'll be eating pretzels or chips or whatever I wait until I've had my breakfast and am full so I don't sneak any and put all the snacks I'm going to be eating for the day into a baggie or tupperware and I only eat from those.

That's what I do too when I keep tempting stuff in the house.  I label the bags and tupperware too so it's a visual reminder of the breakdown of what I'm about to eat.  Usually helps deter the eating because you're bored thing.

Not a big fan of chocolate but, as a fellow 'handfuls of walnuts' sufferer... (shall we start a self-help group? Nuts Anonymous?)... I'm afraid the only solution I've found is not to buy them, not even to walk too close to the shelf in the supermarket and to make the house a nut-free zone.   If I do decide to buy nuts I'm afraid the bagging it up into small amounts thing is never going to happen.  So I buy the smallest bag possible in the full knowledge that I shall eat the lot and then.... well... enjoy them thoroughly!

On the nuts........buy them in the hull. This way you have to crack them before you eat them.

On the chocolate, try freezing it and only thawing what you are going to eat. This will work for some, not others(like me who likes frozen chocolate). But some can't eat frozen chocolate.

I'm quite partial to walnuts too. This a very bad time of year for me because there is a walnut tree by the back door and I've got hundreds of them drying all over the house.

I'm just going to try and save them all for guests at Christmas. If I start on even one of them who knows where it will end.

I'd have to agree with the first reply. Whenever I buy nuts (walnuts, cashews, already mixed trek mixes) first thing I do when I get home is put 1/4 cup portions into individual tupperware cups that I bought especially for that purpose. It has really helped me stop munching away endlessly on a bag of ____ (fill in whatever snack). I mean, I know full well that after finishing one portion, there are other cups filled with nuts that I could continue eating, but something in my brain signals to me that I'm done with this cup and that is enough for now. Also, at Trader Joe's, I get these big bags of Go Raw Trek Mix that are already individually packaged and so they are pretty convenient on the go, as well.
