    I gave up cokes and white chocolate mocha's from Starbucks. I now drink water and skinny vanilla lattes when I do go by Starbucks. Everything else I use portion control. If not, I would binge big time.

    So I have pretty much given up sweats in any form, soda, artifical sweatners, all drinks except water, coffee, tea and milk. I never was big into fast food, but that is gone, fried food is gone, just junk in general. Once in a while I will splurge on chips or a drink, but I can't seem to handle myself around sweats or artifical sweatners, I had some sugar free jello the otherday and I had sugar cravings for days.....so not worth it!

    I've turned over a new leaf. I gave up sugar, white flour, all junk food, and most processed stuff. No fast food,either, no sodas of any kind or alcohol. I feel SO MUCH more stable especially without sugar and white flour. I have no cravings at all! Desires? Yes! Cravings?No! Of all things, Peanut butter is my "crack"! I tried to just have a little bit, but can easily end up eating 1/2 - 1 cup at a sitting, just spoon, by spoon.....ahhhhh.

    Potatoes, diet coke (eventhough it doesnt have cals, i still gave it up), cream in my coffee, BEEF!

    Well, I really didnt give up beef totally. I will eat a lean steak like a filet or a sirloin, but i gave up ground beef. now cheeseburgers are my fave food (which is probably how i got here in the first place) and i couldnt give them up, so i started making them with buffalo/bison. it has much less fat and calories and tastes amazing!!

    Potatoes was the most significant thing i gave up though. oh and candy :sad:

    Okay well, since this is my first day I can't say if the results have been worth it yet, lol, but I'm giving up fast food. Anything with a clown, burger, or chicken for a spokesperson is a no-no.

    Chips and junk food. I can't remember the last time I dipped a crunchy chip into a jumbo bowl of dip. And I never used to just scrape, I used to gouge a hole into that dip. Easy TBSP of dip sandwiched between two chips. OMG. Sounds gross/good now. Yikes.

    This could take a while!

    Bread, fizzy drinks, chocolate, fast food, fried food, there are probably others but they're the main ones. Oh, and alcohol, which instead of 2-3 times a week, I have once every 2-3 weeks.

    I guess the key is if you really want a treat, go and work out so damn hard that you 'earn' it. If I want to go out drinking, I go do a 90 minute cardio session earlier in the day.

    I quit soda. It was partially weight loss motivated, but mostly diabetes related when I did. Now has been 1 year and 4 months since I quit. Don't even miss or crave it one bit.

    I am in the process of cutting out most processed foods and going more organic. And if its processed its organic. No artificial sugar. I use honey or maple syrup to sweeten things. More fresh meat/fruits/veggies. My goal is to only eat out 2 x a month if that. I have a 3 yr old and hes kind of resisting the changes but in the end he will be good for it.

    I haven't given up anything food! I now watch portions, but to be totally honest, never was a chocolate, biscuits, cakes, crisp, fast food lover. Not saying never ate them, but generally satisfied with one if that! my bacardi and coke has taken a knock on the head, cut out coke completely, replaced with ginger ale, but limited to maybe once or twice a month.

    Alcohol! I know i can have it in moderation but it causes me to eat too much so I decided to just not have it all unless for a special occasion.

    Coke, ranch dressing, potatoes... Those are the things I can't seem to do in moderation and need to stop completely. Everything else, I just eat less of.
