Only one item:
1. No demonizing food.0 -
To sum it all up...
Don't change WHAT you eat, change HOW you eat.
it isn't always about not knowing the portion control because most people on here have already learnt that!
for example if someone loves shortbread biscuits and ate them all the time when they were fat without a thought of calories and no self control this person might be to hurt from the experience and scared of what will happen if they eat them again, learned insight to there nutritional value and maybe just banning them for the meantime until they have got everything in place with themselves0 -
I have banned meat since I'm vegetarian. I've banned shellfish due to shellfish allergy. I've banned anything with peanut butter in it because peanut butter is gross (Yes!!! I said it, it should be banned and is a perfect waste of the use of peanuts!). I've also banned eating spoiling chocolate with mint because adding mint to chocolate degrades perfectly good chocolate. Finally, cinnamon buns I have banned because I over did that some time ago. Not a fan of watermelon either.0

I've not banned anything - I've banned a place.
I'm not going to eat in my car on the way home from work, as this is the one place I tend to mindlessly consume hundreds of empty calories. After a hard day, I'll call at the supermarket for things I need, spot some cream cakes, or douhgnuts, or cheese scones, or a bag of Haribo tangfastics, and when I put the rest of my shopping in the back of the car, they go on my passenger seat. By the time I get home, they're gone and I haven't even enjoyed them much, just stuffed my face.
I'm not necessarily going to completely stop buying these things. But if I put them in the back with the rest of my shopping, get home and sit down with a cup of tea, I'll actually eat a reasonable portion.
That's the plan, anyway.0 -
I haven't 'banned' anything, but I know now what foods are likely to make me fall off the bandwagon, so I tread carefully around them. Regular soda is first on that list (I was drinking my daily calorie limit just in soda prior to starting MFP)-- I now never drink it through the week, but allow myself one regular soda on the weekend as a treat. Pasta is another trigger food that I know I'm better off to avoid. I don't think swearing off any food completely is the answer: real life is always going to present situations that involve foods that are high in calories, but, for me, the major goal of this process is to learn how to handle those situations as exceptions and go right back to my healthy lifestyle.0

Kale is on my no list. Gross.0
-
Mayonnaise and pickles.....not because I feel they're inherently unhealthy...mostly because they make me puke.0
-
Crack...and heroin0
-
Processed white sugar. Because it will kill rats in a controlled environment, and sailors in the 1600's.0

Great weightloss supplements, I hear?0 -
I try to rarely eat: potato/bread/cheese/rice/beans/pork/grains (my body is intolerant)
Never these days: pasta/beef/milk ..0 -
I haven't banned anything either. If I do indulge, I do it in moderation. I never eat fried foods or drink soda, just because I prefer not to, but I think you can indulge yourself sometimes if you have the will power to not go over board and not do it on a daily basis0

i have nothing on my no list persay, but as i have been kind of lazy with loggiing and not really losing weight(sad face. my fault) but havent been gaining... happy face.
now that i am starting to log everything to the best of my ability i realise the one thing i cant have in moderation is cheese. i love it, but its worth so many damn cals that i just need to quit buying it. if i dont buy it i wont have it. haha.... but if i decide to have pizza or something on a cheat day i will keep the cheese on it, im not going to give it up if its a cheat meal, but i am damned sure i wont be buying anymore while im trying to lose a lot of weight.0 -
Just started out today but for me it would have to be all fizzy drinks and junk food...Pizza,fries,chips and sadly Nutella (the love of my life! ) also tea except green tea and Mr.Noodle !0

Nothing! If it fits into my daily calories, I eat it. I've come to learn that super high-calorie foods are rarely worth it, and eating some fast food will just make me snack more later in the day and set me up to fail. But overall, I eat a very healthy diet 95% of the time, and the other 5% of the time I enjoy whatever it is that I'm craving (in moderation, of course)! I think that's why I've been successful this time- it's nice knowing that nothing is off-limits.
This.0 -
Full sugar fizzy drinks are banned as are most refined carbs, though those little buggers sneak in and then I pay dearly with intestinal problems. I do believe that a little of what you fancy is good for you.0
