No more soda or sweet tea. Also gave up white bread products.0

I've cut out my sugar and milk in my coffee... I use to like my coffee to taste almost like caramel - full of milk and sugar... Big step for me! But VERY convenient went wanting to drink a coffee - don't have to worry about all the extra cals!0

i only use egg whites in my omlettes, infact i like just egg white better than whole eggs, and then i dont feel bad about having a slice of bacon. (Real egg white, not packaged, those are GROSS)0

I eat anything I want. If I want a burger and fries for lunch, I plan for that and adjust breakfast and dinner to compensate. If I have to deprive myself, I'm GOING to binge. Nothing is off limits. But I am careful not to let those indulgences take me over the edge and over my calorie goal.0

most of my snack foods....
and chocolate. Not all chocolate... but most chocolate. it kills my caloric intake0 -
Pasta.. Burgers w/ bacon and cheese.. lots of cheese... cut back to 1 cup of milk a day when I used to drink half a gallon...loaded baked potatoes with cheese sour cream bacon etc.. chips..
Basically I lived off starch of any kind.. pasta rice potatoes usually topped with tons of cheese... I haven't completely gotten rid of everything. I just eat it in moderation and measure every ounce of what I eat.
Luckily I am not a big chocolate or sugar person so that stuff was easy to cut out. I only have been drinking water and milk for years with the occasional soda once every 3 months. And I really don't drink alcohol. So yea.. for me it was carbs and cheese.. I love cheese.. lol0 -
Soda(long time ago feel so much better),white flour,high fructose corn syrup,dairy(not 100% all the time),meat(not 100% all the time),fried food,butter,eggs:anything not vegan,raw,orangic basically.I eat a lot of healthier more satisfying things that fill me up and help me lose weight!Just ate a fruit bowl (soy whip is good on top!).Anyone thinking of trying vegan or vegetarian please remember you need protein,vitamin B-12,iron,and you can get this in a vegan diet!I'm drinking lots of water which helps me stay full longer(eating more fiber and protein does too) and helps my skin.0
