    I won't give anything up, I just work it in. I'm not going to cut out things for the rest of my life, and the rest of my life is for living!

    I don't drink a whole lot but when I do I like straight liquor (my favs are Tequila and Kahlua, just can't get enough of 'em) and liqueurs (my favs are chambord and disaronno, yum) and of course mixed drinks.. or drinks made of mixed liquors and/ or liqueurs- I don't plan on giving any of those up. Also, Coffee.... and smoking. I will eventually quit smoking but I am not about to do it until I get into the swing of things with this new lifestyle- otherwise it'll be too stressful and it'll never happen

    (funny note: my furkids are all named after alcohol, lol, people think its because im a big drinker- but im not. Anywhoo- Tequila is my chihuahua (see avi pic) then the ferrets from left to right in my sig: SoCo (full name southern comfort- he only hears that when mommys mad lol), Captain Morgan, Mojito and Kahlua :wink: )

    :heart: Your ferrets are adorable!!! :heart:

    I agree with in n out burger. single patty, no special sauce (only mustard and ketchup), and no cheese. It's still reallllly good and without the fries not that bad for you imo. I still get the fries but only have 4-5, no ketchup.

    I'm starting to realize cheese covers the flavor of the burger and fresh veggies, for me anyways.

    I haven't given anything up. It's more the frequency in which I used to eat it. Haven't had pizza in a month but I will tomorrow. :)

    I gave up almost everything at the beginning and then started adding things back in after a long miserable month. It taught me a lot of things about what I really wanted and what I actually needed.

    I wanted to completely cut out bacon but as it turns out, I can't. It's only a one a month treat now though instead of twice a week! & I enjoy a drink on a weekend so that's staying aswell. :)

    I can't live without my coffee! I am now starting to wake up a half hour early and workout just so I can have the coffee : ) I used to drink like 4 cups but now I am down to 1 maybe 2 depending on the kind of morning im having!

    Good red wine. I love it. What I do now is drink it less often, and buy better quality so that I can savour every single drop and it is divine. I also love pizza but I make my own now, using a tortilla as a base and add peppers and mushrooms which I stir fry a bit first, a couple of anchovies and some light mozzarella and a few herbs on top. Then spray it with some olive oil fine spray and bake in a hot oven. It's wonderful and less than half the calories of my usual frozen pizza. And more fun to make too - I positively love it!! with a glass of red wine, of course!

    Cheese. Just have to cut way back, and realize that a little really does go a long way.

    Me too!! I'm a cheesehead. Have to have it every day or else I will not survive LOL

    Love love love the responses! And I know everything in moderation...

    regarding the booty calls...doesn't that just increase exercise which in turn means more food?!?! LOL

    White wine...at the end of the day a glass of wine symbolizes relaxation for me...sometimes I need more "relaxation" than other times. To cut down sometimes I will make a wine spritzer- but it is never as "relaxing".

    I love pasta's Spaghetti and the Three Cheese Chicken Penne Pasta from Applebees... I just go down to about once a month for spaghetti and use whole wheat noodles now. And if I go out I get the lunch portion of my favorites to cut back.

    I don't believe you have to give up anything - just have it smarter and in moderation....

    I totally concur. I reached my goal weight this week (30 pounds lost) and never gave up may favorites (cookies and ice cream) just ate less of them less often.
