meggspeggs 0 Posted March 1, 2012 What are your top slider foods? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
minaleigh 95 Posted March 1, 2012 For me it's tortilla chips. If they're plain, I feel like I can eat my weight in them. If I use them in nachos (with chicken and cheese on them) though, I have a limit of about three or four before I get full. popcorn is another slider, but I've only eaten it twice so far.

Lissa 2,631 Posted March 1, 2012 Cheetos are my top slider. IF I buy them, I buy a "single serving" size and TRY to make them last for a few days. I learned the hard way that I cannot have a bigger bag in the house, because they sit in the pantry and mock me. Nothing else does that but baked cheetos. I guess it could be worse. Before surgery it was any sweet food. 4 months without that craving was wonderful and helped me get to where I can have a few bites of a sweet and I'm fine. I can even throw away a half-eaten candy bar without a twinge of anxiety now! That would have NEVER happened pre-op! 2 New in 2012 and Neese reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
minaleigh 95 Posted March 1, 2012 I still have a hard time throwing away food. I don't gorge myself just to make sure it's eaten, but I was raised on leftovers and finishing your plate. Luckily I have a roommate who eats anything and everything (and never gains an ounce ) that will take whatever I don't finish. Saves us on grocery bill!

Catracks 865 Posted March 1, 2012 I found the perfect solution for the guilt of not finishing your plate. I have 4 chickens out back that will eat ANYTHING! I figure what I don't store as leftovers can go into their pretty eggs.< /p> 1 2BThinAlways reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indymom 132 Posted March 2, 2012 popcorn is the one food I've noticed is a complete slider for me . . . luckily it's not too much of a trigger food, I don't crave it often so it's not likely to be a problem for me. I don't care much about sweets so they would probably be a slider but I haven't had enough to find out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

virtygirl 11 Posted March 2, 2012 Movie theater popcorn. BAD, but so good when I'm craving it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catracks 865 Posted March 2, 2012 I can make stovetop popcorn that beats movie theater popcorn to hell. I'm trying to be good, but I have to wait 4 MORE MONTHS! do I hafta? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GonnaLoseIt 33 Posted March 2, 2012 Gosh darn movie theatre popcorn. Almost cried the first time I looked up the nutritional information (Thank god I didn't finish a small to myself). From now on I am going to be taking crispy minis buttered popcorn flavour in pre packed 100 cal packs. Movie popcorn is a trigger for me for sure. I feel like I need to be snacking at the movies if someone has popcorn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lsereno 2,525 Posted March 2, 2012 I am 9.5 months out and I have found a lot of sliders and calorie-laden drinks. Pretty much any junk food feels like a slider to me because they are so calorie dense. popcorn is the one I have eaten the most of. Lynda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indymom 132 Posted March 3, 2012 Ugh just discovered a new slider . . . cheez balls (you know, the iridescent orange ones!!!). Thankfully the kids just finished off the bag before I could eat more than a few - I've already told the husband that he's not allowed to buy them again.
