    I gave up eating whatever I craved at the time and maybe a little tv, but that's it. I eat what I want after weigh-in, because that is my cheat day. Sometimes I eat what I want all weekend. That's why my weight loss is slower, but don't feel deprived.

    I have to tip my hat there. I still eat chips about everyday, but they are tortilla chips. Still,140 cals per 7 chips, it's insane!

    Paying more attention to my diet sparked an interest in researching where my food came from. Eventually, I gave up eating all animal source products - for ethical reasons, as I don't necessarily think it the "healthiest" decision.

    Also, sour gummy candies. I loved that shiz, but eventually just stopped buying candy in general. It wasn't a conscious decision.

    I gave up caffeinated fizzy stuff and coffee. I enjoy tea every now and again, but I gave up because on some days I would literally drink 2k calories of soda and nothing else. I try to enjoy some decaf every now and again but once I add all the creamer and sugar I like there's not much point.

    I gave up my hour of sleep in the morning. Also gave up my body not being sore.

    I gave up half the space in my living room to make room for a treadmill and an elliptical, but otherwise, I didn't really give up anything.... Just 120lbs so far. Good riddance.

    I haven't given anything up, however I am a 10-12 book a month reader... I'm one of those people who makes reading a priority and will ALWAYS find time to read. But in the last few months that has definitely slowed down as a lot of the time that I previously spent reading is spent running! I don't like audio books, so I've just kind of accepted that my reading time has decreased. I still read quite a bit but sometimes health takes priority over a good book. I never thought I would say that. :noway:

    Yeah also avid reader and really feel the pain ( for me that means more money in my pocket.

    Also gave up ' cue jeopardy theme song' yeah my snooze button. I used to love those 25 minutes of extra sleep but traded it in for crunches situps and squats. Made a huge difference.

    Junk food and spontaneity.

    Definitely spontaneity...always planning ahead, I don't make good choices on the fly.
