    Nothing that I "learned" to love.. But I discovered (and love) goji berries, chia seeds, cacao beans and lots of super foods and raw stuff through changing my lifestyle. :)

    Steel cut oats for breakfast. I used to get really bored with oatmeal or oat bran but I could eat these for dessert.

    Wheat products! I can hardly stomach white flour tortillas anymore.

    I LOVE All Bran cereal. I know, its disgusting. But there's just something about it... keeps me full forever!

    Fresh or frozen vegetables, I can't even look at canned vegetables without feeling disgusted at the thought of their mushiness. Whole grain breads, white bread feels like cotton in my mouth now. Also learning that a sub from subway tastes just as good without cheese and mayo.

    Greek yogurt
    raw almonds (unsalted)
    trying new food styles -like Indian foods
    spicy foods taste better now
    I like that since stopping Diet Coke I really taste things.
    I also adore the number on the scales and the old jeans that I saved from two sizes ago. They fit!

    As sick as this sounds, the feeling of hunger. After stuffing myself for years, forgot what it felt like to really be hungry. Nothing like pounding a 2,000 calorie meal after not eating for long periods of time.

    On the positive side, I started loving porridge, mango, low fat dairy and protein filled vegetarian foods after I started watching my calories.

    On the negative side, I have developed a sweet tooth I never had before - I used to be able to take or leave chocolate, and now I like it. Also, my cheesecake longings have intensified.

    Eating breakfast - I actually wake up hungry for my protein shake. Or look forward to my 100% whole wheat toast with natural (sugar free) peanut butter on Fridays.

    Squash - used to hate the acorn and butternut Mom used to make. Turns out those (and spaghetti) are the only ones I don't like. Delicata is my favorite, but hard to find. Buttercup is a runner up.

    Spinach!

    I could put it in ANYTHING. It's pretty much a staple in my diet, because I can add so much of it without dramatically increasing the calories and fat in my meal!

    It's also really good if you don't want a giant meal, I just cook up a piece of chicken and put it in a bed of spinach, and I'm good to go :)
