    Chips.
    People say ''well have them in moderation"
    I simply don't have the control yet to be able to portion them out and just eat that. One day hopefully :)

    Ice cream. During the winter months it wasn't really an issue, way too cold to want to eat it. But now that summer is here it's a different story. I too am not ready to test out if I can apply moderation with this particular food.

    I haven't given anything up completely, but I love any kind of Asian food and I miss eating lots of rice with it.

    I buy Mars icecream bars, only 138 calories then you can't over eat :)

    I eat a lot less of a lot of things, but I've not really given anything up food wise. Quitting smoking was a *kitten* though.

    Can you get the McCain boxes? They're 158 cals per serving.

    For me, I haven't given anything up but because of the HUGE calorie content I haven't had Dominos at all... instead have a small supermarket pizza with c. 400 cals.

    Coca Cola on regular basis - I had to give it up for a good 5 months until I could control myself. I drink some here and there now because I know I won't over do it and go back to old habits.

    Potato chips. If I have it at home, I will eat it all, the entire bag. Still eat it when having drinks/dinner/movie night with friends.

    Other than that I regularly eat everything I want. I plan ahead for a 900 cal pizza and a glas of pinot if I feel like it. Heck, once I had a pizza just because I had the spare calories...

    Cake! I eat cake still in small amounts but I like to bake and make yummy cakes that are 500 cals a reasonable slice (I mean not as big as you'd likely get in a cafe). That's 1/3 of may daily limit so it's a rare treat now. Otherwise, I'm satisfied to eat most things that I enjoy in small quantities.

    I haven't given up anything that I really love BUT unfortunately it's pretty tough to fit croissants and pastries in my days, so I had to give up having them once or twice a week. Now it's once a month if that...

    Horseradish potato chips? They sound amazing!
