    My take away from this thread: Lots of bro/sis gender confusion, and the silica packets I ate won't poison me.

    :)

    I want to know if guys in real life actually call each other "BRO" :confused:

    My only "nots" involved foods that triggered bingeing or led me to fall off plan. Even in the beginning, that meant fast food or food from convenience stores.

    That's it.

    It's not the food item that's the problem, but some food can trigger behavioral reactions for some folks.

    And even those triggers can change over time as your tastes and habits change.

    The fewer restrictions we place on our food, the better it seems to work long term for many people. That's how I roll, anyway.

    You have to look long and hard at you own needs, desires, habits, triggers, and goals, and create a plan for yourself that works for YOU!

    Hubby and I just commented today that we haven't been to a Red Robin's in three years. If the restaurant won't post the calorie count, then it's off my list. (I'm in Canada, by the way).

    Foods I don't eat.

    Eggs
    most vegetables, except peppers, raw carrots, snap peas, raw celery & potatoes
    liver
    Lima beans
    Any beans except jelly beans.
    avocado

    They are all yucky.

    Seriously, I probably miss pop the most but when I look at the calories, I'd rather have potato chips.

    Don't eat green bell peppers. I'm not sure who thought it would be a good idea to eat peppers before they were ripe. Gross.

    I ate bad mayo once. I wouldn't eat that again. Along the same line the people who made the bad mayo were at "The Phoenix" in KCMO. I wouldn't eat there again ever.

    LOL I love that you take every opportunity to mention the name of the establishment that gave you food poisoning....

    I'll have to lookup The Phoenix next time I'm in KC. These constant posts about their mayo has me curious.

    I think I key in on it because I've been there, it's downtown across from where Tanners used to be, and the Quaff. They have (had?) live Jazz if I recall.

    They have live jazz. But it's further north. Quaff is Tenth and Broadway. Phoenix is Eighth and Central a block east and two blocks north.

    Across from the Quaff is a parking lot and a crappie place to work.

    green pointy peppers are really tasty! bell not so much
    it's little bit like spring onion in way? It has it's own taste as spring onion, before growing to a normal onion.
