Take out Asian Food... because I developed an allergy to soy AND I have a medical condition that is food sensitive that it is a trigger for. That medical condition also means no Caffeine and a number of other things.1

Many things I don't eat as much anymore because self control is lacking, so if I do eat it I make peace with fact I will most likely eat entire container. Such as crisps or corn chips. I LOVE corn chips! Nutella, nutella with ice cream, pasta in copious quantities - I still eat pasta but I find it sad so measure out 100g cooked pasta, it doesn't even touch the sides.
Now those are all things I still eat on occasion.
Things that I would like to eat more of but for some stupid reason no longer tolerate properly - cauliflower, broccoli - basically any cruciferous vegetable. I just have to LOOK at a broccoli florette and I instantly look 5 months pregnant. Major bloating. Eggplant to an extent too.
Again, I still eat those things, but I can't eat them every day or all the time
Oh yeah and chew and spew chinese food - the MSG in it now makes me feel totally gross so I don't eat it unless i have no choice like someone's birthday or something.1 -
For some reason once I started dropping weight I found three things I like to eat that gas me a lot of pain with my gall bladder. Eggs, Nuts, and of all things Cauliflower. I miss the egss and nuts the most
cauliflower does that to me too. luckily not eggs coz I can devour half a dozen in one day easily.0 -
Vegetables, whoke grains, fruits, nuts, popcorn (thanks to Crohn's and gastroparesis)3

The one thing I miss is how often I would have a milkshake. They tend to be 700+ calories. Having a serving or two of Ice cream is just easier to fit in!
Definitely! I eat ice cream regularly and really have never been a huge milkshake fan anyway -- but since joining MFP I've had maybe two (in five and a half years). It's just not worth it to me.
I also drink everything really fast so a large malt would basically be a great way for me to get in many hundreds of calories in ten minutes...no thank you! 2 -

It’s the straw. Drinks with straws are no bueno. I’ve invented the new diet for 2019, do not use straws.

True about straws - but I drink crazy fast even a huge mug of black coffee that is practically boiling. It's an unwanted talent!
I avoid most smoothies for similar reasons to above. For me it's like taking a pill full of calories because I drink too dang fast.

Also a T2D Pasta and all that lovely good tomato based sauces in almost any quantity spike the blood sugar so I no longer eat. Same for Pizza, white rice, brown does it as well. All bread is gone as well. Interestingly popcorn does not. And in the summer I can sneak in a fresh ear here and there.
But what I miss, and will eat no more as bad for me in every way. Snickers bars and Hostess Suzie Q's. Just plain garbage bad food, and I had bad control so I have decided I am in a better place without ever having again.

Celery. I love raw celery but about a year ago I had a full blown allergic reaction to it.
I can have some if it's cooked but that's not the same at all.

I eat what I want now, but there are several foods that I've phased out over several years--mostly processed, prepackaged stuff that I grew up eating and just kind of grew out of liking. And I've also recently tested positive for some food sensitivities, so I've given some things up because I don't like feeling bad.
-Soda--I might drink soda 2-3 times a year. I grew up in a family that all drank soda regularly but I gave it up years ago and now it just doesn't appeal to me.
-Package pasta salads like Suddenly Salad and Pasta Roni. I used to eat these once or twice a week.
-Bread--I'll still eat bread, but DH doesn't eat it and I can't use a whole loaf before it goes bad, so I don't buy it and rarely eat it.
-Hamburger helper and stuff like that. Again, used to eat this all the time, but now it's just greasy and gross.
-Ramen noodle soup packets
-Most juice; occasionally I'll have a glass of juice but it's pretty rare
-Pizza; I'm sensitive to dairy and wheat, so I only eat pizza when I'm at a party or something and its the only thing available and I'm hungry
-Dairy products because see above; I can have a bit of cheese once in awhile. I haven't given up ice cream--I just make my own out of coconut milk.
-Eggs, also sensitive to these. This has been the hardest because I used to eat hard-boiled eggs all the time
-Soy sauce, also sensitive to soy.
-Taco Bell. I swear I lived on Taco Bell in college, and it grosses me out now. I still eat fast food but there's only a couple places I'll go.

I really like hummus. I used to eat hummus, spinach and sundried tomato wraps for lunch. Hummus with crackers and veggies for snacks.
I randomly developed an allergy to chick peas about 3 years ago and I really miss eating them.

Flamin' Hot Limon Cheetos. Much too calorific.2
-
Peanut butter. I love it, and in ages past I would eat just a bowl of peanut butter and jelly.
Now I find it gives me indigestion, so I avoid it in all but minute quantities.0 -
The only thing I "can't" eat is quest bars because they make me constipated, but no loss there.0
-
Wife likes frozen desserts from Dairy Queen at least once a week. Due to my focus on losing weight I've switched from a Blizzard to a classic Orange Julius--which is OK but it's no Blizzard.0

Milk and over easy eggs.
I can eat cheese, yogurt, etc., but milk sends my guts into revolt.
Similarly, I can eat scrambled and hard boiled eggs, but over easy makes me queasy. Heh. Which makes me sad because I so love a runny yolk.0 -
The only thing I can't eat that I miss is a burger (Big Mac) or a burger from Red Robin. Every now & then I get a craving for a Big Mac, but I know if I eat one my stomach will be in revolt in a few hours/sometimes the next day.0

There's things that I don't get to eat much anymore because my HUSBAND can't eat them. lol. Chili or anything with a lot of beans, and anything with tomatos/tomato sauce. I have been craving pizza all week thanks to that pizza thread and I told him last night we're eating pizza for dinner tonight and then remembered tomato sauce hurts his stomach

His stomach's not your stomach. Eat a damn slice of pizza.

In future you could have pizza with pesto or alfredo sauce, so you could both enjoy it. Or, you know, get two smaller pizzas, one for each.0
