    Can not give up Lattes from McDonalds. I even have clients pick them up for me in trade for giving their pet a bath!

    I refuse to give up anything completely because I'm not dieting, I'm changing my life and improving my health. I have cut back a great deal on things like Ghiradelli Brownies every Friday night with a side of Chocolate chip cookie lol... But I won't give up anything I love completely. Balance and Moderation with some good old fashion daily exercise is the key. If I wanna be really bad I work really hard to earn it... :smile:

    It's not "bad" but I love milk. I love goat milk, actually. But I can easily blow through a hundred extra liquid calories a day if I don't pay attention to that.

    If I'm around mayonnaise, or chips and queso, I will not not have them.
    Same too with donuts or cinnamon rolls, I will have to have one or at least part of one.
    Gravy is a big problem if it's around, especially if I made it. I will stand around the kitchen licking the pan. It's grotesque.

    so I just try not to be around those things or make them. I will totally overeat the chips and queso or guac, though not the other stuff, and that will totally derail me. So I seriously avoid that. But will not pass it up when it is in front of me.

    Splenda Mocha packet in my coffee with Coffee Mate lite and Skinny Cow ice cream anything! I know...I'm a light weight (on the splurges) but I've been doing this since Dec. '07 and will never go back! Oops...almost forgot my beloved Skippy Reduced Fat creamy peanut butter!

    Mayonnaise as well. But I switched to the mayo with olive oil and that's helped.

    I try not to deny myself anything, if i make a habit of it then i start to run away from the dieting thing. But the one thing i cant live without is ice cream.....frozen yogurt is a good substitute (yogi castle) tastes just like the real stuff :)

    Chocolate. A little bit in moderation isn't going to completely hinder you. I don't eat it everyday, but I like to have a little bit of a sweet treat some days, usually the days I burn tons of calories. And usually just a tablespoon of chocolate chips will do.

    Ice cream is a TOTAL weakness of mine, but I have not eaten it in quite a while. If I get a pint, I will eat it all, so I just avoid it all together.

    Alcohol!

    And if I may have another, chocolate. And good quality cheese.

    But I do find that fundamentally denying myself of anything just results in greater cravings - for me the whole idea of this is about keeping to a positive lifestyle and not "going on a diet".

    As a daily 'cheat', I would have to say creamer in my coffee. I can do sweet'n-low with no problem at all, but man, giving up my coffe-mate creamer makes me all kinds of unhappy.

    As for other things I just have to splurge on occassionally, pizza tops the list. ;)

    I will never give up alcohol completely. I think it's in my contract that I should drink and swear on a fairly regular basis.

    You should try my chocolate covered peanutbutter cookies. Or my recipe 'crunch n crumble'. It's a peanutbutter cookie crust with a thin layer of hot fudge with a thick layer of peanutbutter fudge topped with toffee.
