    Nothing. I eat when I want and to meet my goals and that includes all the wonderful foods.

    I banned banning things. If I want it I make it work in my macros and calories. Best thing I've ever done. My relationship with food is awesome now. I don't rule anything out.

    Restaurants with no nutritional information available on the website are on my no list because I hate playing guessing games with my intake, otherwise I eat what I like in moderation.

    Haven't "Banned" anything because I'm not on a diet, I'm changing my life. I'm not going to ban cheeseburgers or pizza for life. Now I haven't had any actual fast food since I started but it doesn't mean I will deprive myself if I get the urge because I know, from past experiences, as soon as I really deny that urge it will just blow up later.

    Now, I have found that the trick is realizing just how great and how much better home cooked so called "Healthy" food can be. I made an open face cheeseburger last friday that was possibly the best burger I've ever had and it had no beef (turkey) and no bun (portobello mushroom) but still had a delicious special mayo sauce I made along with home fries, veggies, and cheese. Whole plate under 500 calories.

    on that same note we made 'pizza' with the portobello mushroom caps as the 'dough' and turkey pepperoni and cheese. They were delicious and honestly it scratched that pizza itch just fine.


    But again, if I get to the point that I'm like, "I REALLY want a cheeseburger" I'm going to go get one, log it, and slowly enjoy every bite. Just like I do with my previous soda addiction. I may only drink water most days but if I want a sweet tea or soda I'm going to have it. Although the carbonation irritates my stomach now that I don't have it all the time.

    Mostly, it's Kettle Chips. Are these just a UK thing or worldwide? Either way, I can find myself eating a large bag ALL BY MYSELF and then feeling somewhat sick from the grease, and very sick from the guilt, afterwards. Hadn't had any for a year then stuffed myself two weeks ago :sick: with one of the two bags in my cupboard (left over from when my niece was coming over for a Film Night and didn't ...).

    And the other thing that is just about out of the door - and I love - is cheese. God, I miss CHEESE!

    Anything else is, I think, okay in moderation as long as it fits The Plan. Apart from things I loath anyway, like brussels sprouts, broad beans, offal, chickpeas (although I love hummus...).

    Right now my 'No' list is bread, grains and added sugar, at least during this weight loss phase. When I lose the unwanted pounds and am instead maintaining my weight, I shall re-introduce each, but in small ways, and see how it goes. To be honest, I don't miss any of them, and haven't for 7 weeks or so, but then I tapered back gradually on each until I reached the point I just cut them out completely. I think that helped a lot, and so far have had no cravings, although I do feel a little gentle pressure to relax things, especially as I am not a world away from my goal these days.

    Honestly, nothing is on my "no" list.... somethings are on my "eat everyday" list and some are on my "don't eat everyday" list.

    There are certain foods we all try to give up completely when starting a new diet. What have you banned (or tried to ban) from your life? Pizza, pasta, soda, and red meat are on mine. Have you had long term success with banning these foods from your diet?

    Anytime I ban certain foods I fail long term. Now nothing is off limits and my results and my life are better then ever...

    I stopped drinking soda completely 3 years ago, when I began to live on my own, and found out how expensive it is to buy soda all the time. Water is my best friend now. I also enjoy herbal teas. If i want a fancy drink, I have an occasional starbucks trip with my sister.

    If I have enough calories in the day, I let myself splurge, however I'm more motivated to fill up with good foods. Why eat a donut when I can save the calories for a healthy dinner out with my husband, and maybe have a glass of wine?? Moderation - that's what I keep telling myself.

    I'm never willingly eating or buying grains/startches/processed sugar. If I'm out and can't have my alternatives I never eat a 2nd serving. That's how you maintain, my house is filled with junk food/pasta/cake/soda etc.
    My mom has been going to weddings and events and keeps bringing home legit boxes of cupcakes and pastry.


    At the end of the day I find myself throwing out the food. That's why I recommend not getting rid of the bad foods in your house already. After seeimg junk for so long, you build a huge tolerance. The only bad habit I have is opening the fridge when I'm bored but I never eat anything just stare get confused and leave. I've been 5 months in my journey, I do think I've cured my leptin levels. The only thing left is the need to eat certain foods in public, but I've gotten better at saying no. My last "binge" was on a Samosa and 5 plain onion rings.

    I don't really have one right now because I have found that for me "no" lists just make me get rebellious. LOL But at the same time, I haven't eaten a lot of lovely luscious foods because they don't fit in my cals. So, technically nothing's off the menu, but I tend to try to stay with things that won't break the calorie bank. (So far. We'll see what happens when my bday and the holidays roll around.)

    There is nothing on my "No" list. It's a lifestyle change and I'm going to eat everything in moderation for life lol. If I eat bad then that means I work harder in the gym or run more miles.

    There are no foods that I want to eat, but forbid myself from eating. However there is a significant list of foods that I simply do not want to eat. Those foods are ones that I do not like the taste or which have a negative impact on me.

    I'm meant to have a 'No' list?

    well darn.

    ^^^^ this

    no "no" list.... just portion control. In fact for me if I forbid myself from eating any particular food it just makes me want it all the more and be unable to stop eating it when I fall off the wagon... so I have much more success with eating what I want in moderation.

    Anything has has excessive calories in a single serving. Other than that, almost nothing is banned! Everything in moderation.
