    I haven't "given it up" but I do have a really hard time limiting my bread.

    I also indulge in diet soda more often than I should.

    Kettle Chips (plain or sea salt and cracked pepper) - have a serving or 2 every week!!

    I second that! I always have a bag in the pantry. Eating some tonight, lol!
    i actually adjusted my dinner so that i could fit in some kettle chips w/o going over my calorie count. haha. i <3 the thick sea salt ones you get from costco.

    I refuse to give up anything, I exercise portion control and the frequency with which I eat the things that aren't quite as good for me... I don't want to feel like I'm depriving myself of anything because that would just be setting myself up for failure or future weight gain with the attitude of "oh I've really missed [whatever food it is].... I can't wait until I'm done with this diet and can eat it again"

    I swapped crisps and chocolate for rice and noodles. Won't go a week without eating rice 3-4 times and noodles 4-5 times. All the carbs are good though for my running

    Not sure if you'll be able to find them or not but I buy sweet potato chips A LOT, they don't come in flavours but have the same texture and taste as original chips , you could probably add flavours if you want

    BUT 70 cals for a bag vs about 300 cals for the same size!

    Beer-but I did switch to Miller 64! I can give up a lot of things, but I love to unwind with a beer. Ice cold beer is my vice.

    There are TONS of foods that I couldn't give up, so I don't, I just find a way to fit them into my daily intake.

    Same for beverages although I've basically made the choice that I'd rather spend calories on foods vs drinks, so coffee creamer and whey protein are pretty much the only sources of calories that I drink.

    WINE!

    I see your wine and raise you a hard liquor. I want my BF% down, but not more than I want to be having cocktails... ;)

    Alcohol but I chose not to give it up, I enjoy it. I could walk away but I like to have a few drinks.

    Me too I like a drink, not because I feel I need it to wind down or to get drunk (sometimes i do get a bit carried away) but because I enjoy it! a nice red, a different real ale or a superb single malt. :drinker:

    Spicy or well seasoned food and vinegar marinades, salsas.

    Switched tomato/ marinara based foods (which I use often) to crushed or diced tomatoes and I build a sauce from there. It works well for lower sugar quantity.

    Can't give up vanilla yogurt with peanut butter ever! Chocolate is now in whey protein or protein bar form and I'm doing ok with it.

    Hmm-
    My daily Stabucks...which I did modify to be some form of a skinny latte;) (Much less in the calorie count!)

    And one day when I can drink (in moderation-either good beer, or light cocktails)
