    Soda for me, too. Oddly enough, I don't really miss it. I still have coffee in the morning, though. :) I also no longer eat cereals of any kind. Sure miss those Honey Graham-Oh's!

    I don't stop myself from eating/drinking anything but I don't buy soda anymore. Haven't bought ice cream in a while too but might have to start if I want to eat 3.5k cal a day...

    ice cream
    Chinese food
    fast food of any kind
    cake, cookies and pastry
    chips

    Milk. I now have soy or almond. If I drink milk now, it actually bloats me and makes me feel sick! I also try to stick to goats or sheep cheese and yoghurt although that's not ALWAYS the case ;-)

    Oh and ps. Eating clean is so damn hard! So much time and dedication is needed!! I still like to eat my bit of chocolate or gluten free museli bar or have an occasional glass of beer/wine. I don't think that makes me unhealthy, just normal =)

    SODA

    well i used to. I didn't drink soda for almost 2 years because my boyfriend at the time couldn't drink soda for baseball and we thought it'd be a fun challenge to do haha.

    but now i occasionally will have a diet dr. pepper :)

    i used to eliminate one food after the other but ... i find that if i deprive myself too much, then i will binge later on.

    McDonalds. Completely cold turkey on that shizz. I used to eat TWO large orders of fries in one sitting. Two.
    6 hash browns.
    So none of that anymore.

    I gave up on giving up.

    THIS. exactly. I've "given up" foods before and then BAM! binge months or a year or two later. now, i don't give up on anything.

    This makes a lot of sense. I've been seeing a lot of posts talking about moderation instead of eliminating foods. Maybe I wouldnt be making a second trip down weight loss lane.

    For the last several years I really try to stay away from sugar, and thats because I dont like the way it makes me feel. Also soda, for the same reason.

    Nothing - everything in moderation. That's what this makes MFP sustainable!:tongue:

    Juice, cow's milk, having any junk food in the house!

    McDonald's, Hungry Jack's(BK) and all pizza stores. But I already gave up McDonald's and Burger King, they were making me VERY SICK, racing heart a few bites in, instant muscle weakness and the need to go to bed right away, terribly itchy scalp!!!

    I'm another one of those who says if it's in the house and it's junk I HAVE TO EAT IT, even if it's something I don't really like.

    Hmmmm anything in large servings, white bread, and no more DONUTS or MUFFINS (which are calorie disasters!). I've also really limited my soda intake. Otherwise I believe that if you restrict too much, you'll eventually cave and binge on the restricted item. So everything in moderation is my motto. :)

    That's what I was thinking. Eating 'clean' is the one thing I actually enjoy eating.
    Eating "clean"

    I'm confused....you gave up eating clean?

    Why would you give that up? Isn't that a good thing?

    Eating clean is a very good thing. Some people just like to continue to eat junk food while losing weight.
