I really like making cupcakes, esp. decorating them, but I also REALLY like eating them, so I haven't been making them...

is the only solution to give them to people? I don't really know that many people. Who could I give them to? Should I give them to homeless people? Should I have a bake sale? Or should I just give up on making cupcakes, because I'm bound to eat too many? Any other solutions? I kind of lose control if left in a room alone with cupcakes! I would likely eat all of them! I'm trying not to eat all the cupcakes in the world these days...

    I'd start with getting a healthy(er) cupcake recipe, perhaps like this one:

    http://www.handletheheat.com/2010/05/healthy-almond-cupcakes-with.html

    Then I'd see what happened if I used those teeny tiny like muffin tins that are like an inch and a half diameter. Then hopefully your brain will say "Whoa you! You just had five cupcakes! Slow down girlfriend!" But it won't actually be so bad because they're so little it'll be like you had one regular sized cupcake.

    As far as giving them to people, why not bring them to work? People love cupcakes and they'd be all like "Whoo hoo, Kristin brought us cupcakes!" and they'd be so happy. I probably wouldn't give them to homeless people, because of the whole sugar-causes-cavities-and-they-probably-aren't going-to-the-dentist-and-anyway-they-need-more substancial-food-than-cupcakes-things.
    Do you go out to bars? You could bring them to a bar you go to often and let them other patrons munch on them. (Assuming it's ok with the bartender/owner)

    Or you could channel your love of making and decorating cupcakes into learning how to do fancy pancy cru da ta (sp?) like carving radishes to look like flowers, etc.
