You probably think I am off my rocker now but this is one that works.  I found that I am one of those people who love to take a spoon to ice cream, or peanut butter or etc.  I once looked in the kitchen sink and thought why is it I am always washing spoons.  I then read a article that said a sure way to gain weight is if you have too many spoons in your sink in proportion to plates and forks!  It suggested to keep the minimal number of spoons in your drawer that you would need for a day based on your family size then put a rubber band around the stem of the spoon.  Everytime I go to think about just a taste of that ice cream, it ends as soon as I see that rubber band. 

This one too will work if you are one who likes to taste everything in the pot.  Give it a try and I know it will hasten you loss!  Good day..
