Foods you haven’t eaten in your current weight loss journey

This is a tough one....the only thing I can think of is that I used to love getting a chicken biscuit from chik fil a before work, and I cut that out. If I go once, i'll crave it all week.

I have drastically reduced the amount of a lot of things, biggest ones being Dots candy, Triscuits, bread in any form, and any kind of fast food or restaurant food. I used to buy a box of Dots at least once a week, I've only had them twice in 18 weeks. I used to buy a box of Triscuits every week and I think i've only bought one box the last 18 weeks, and some weeks I don't eat out at fast food or other restaurants at all which is a huge drop in frequency for me. Used to be almost everyday at lunch, and every weekend, and one or two week nights for dinner.

My trigger is also high calorie ice cream so I don’t buy it anymore. I started making my own at home using frozen bananas and frozen strawberries and also as another alternative buy breyers delights ice cream. Also I don’t order pizza anymore. I can’t limit myself to one or two slices! Everything else I can eat in moderation so I don’t cut anything else out.

Doughnuts, fast food, diet coke, anything deep fried, hot dogs, just to name a few. Since the middle of January, when I started Nutrisystem. I have the NS entrees and snacks and supplement with lots of veggies (free) and then Smart Carbs and PowerFuels at serving sizes that they direct. I have definitely learned portion control!

I don't think I have cut out any foods in particular in my weightloss journey, but I definitely became more mindful about what I eat. I could have had ice cream, chocolate cake, fried foods, etc. if I wanted to have them as long as they fit into my calories for the day (and I did have these foods occasioanlly) but I thought about whether they were enhancing my health/nutrition or hindering it. Overall, in moderation, these foods would not hinder my health, but I didn't want to form unhealthy habits again so I limited my intake. Now that I am in maintenance, I have simply increased my caloric intake and allow myself to have even more of what I enjoy. I try to eat as "healthily" as I can, while still eating foods I love.

Diet sodas & light beers (which I never drank anyway), processed refined white sugar and any processed food w/sugar added (except ketschup that I have to have as a condiment to certain food like scrambled eggs and certain meat), potatoes and any pasta.

Pretty much a paleo diet (lots of fruit, veggies, fish and meat) w/the exception of some beer, wine, nuts & seeds, flour tortillas and rice. Not advocating paleo, it's just the way I eat.

Bread and fast food. I didn't have either frequently before dieting and have even less now.

Not a lot that I've completely cut out, but there are a couple. I used to regularly have frozen pizzas for just a quick dinner for myself, but they're not worth the calories for a bit of cheese on cardboard. And then salt and vinegar chips is the biggest one. I just can't have them in the house.
