I took the advice of one of your comments & took to exercising when my stress level & anxiety over the banana nut bread in the other room (calling my name!) took hold of me. Can I just say I feel so much better!
I'll need these coping techniques in the future when things like yummy banana nut bread are allowed again. I'm glad I tried it out & saw that instead of digging in & making a pig of myself, I can handle these moments differently & come away feeling much better than before.

Good Job Shannon! I have banana bread over here I am going to be fighting tomorrow! I had a WHOLE freezer drawer basket FULL of bananas! So, I taught my Domestic Divas to make banana bread tonight. I made some ahead of time so they would have some to take home since what they made wouldn't be done in time. So, now I have 4 loaves here! My kids will kill me if I give it all away. It is their FAVORITE! But I am going to have to do something with it! That is for sure!
Send it over to the Young's. I only have mini loafs & a pregnant girl needs more than one tiny loaf! I'm planning on making appointments to go Visiting Teaching so I can get rid of it... oh & fulfill my calling. LOL
It's okay to taste the bread. A small slice to calm the beast and then off to the treadmill. That's called a healthy relationship.
Hey, I have a recipe for some "healthier" banana bread if you want it! It is NOT the same of course but yummy in it's own way! Perhaps having something that is better for you but still "similar" in taste might help. Just a thought.
I have a problem with just tasting things. It's all downhill from there, once I give in. Before I know it, I'll have given up entirely (again). It stinks, but I'm really glad to have learned that lesson the last time around.
