What was the hardest thing for you to give up?

The only things I hated to give up for my new diet were Dr. Pepper and curly fries!

Luckily I already enjoyed all of the healthy things I eat today, so the transition was pretty easy.

What do you miss from your old diet? (not that you can't squeeze it in every once in a while ;) )

    I didn't find it necessary to give up any foods I enjoy in order to lose weight.

    I havent given it up yet. My problem is a piece of chocolate everyday I am slowly cutting down but at the moment it still fits in my calories eventually it will totally disapear but until then I will just having smaller pieces. I did take some out of my trolly yesterday even though my fav was on offer.

    My favorite tub of ice cream. My fat hand doesn't understand what moderation means yet so until I can control myself with a tub of ice cream in the fridge, I can only eat Arctic Zero "ice cream."

    You dont have to completely take out hamburgers and pizza, try a turkey burger (taste the same to me) or a boca burger which is a meatless burger 60 calories for the patty and with a wheat bun your saving tons of calories without losing taste..also I LOVE LOVE LOVE veggie pizzas... Have you ever heard of Pinterest? They have tons of health foods that do not take away taste...hope this helps!!

    I miss cigarettes and booze. There is nothing pleasant about the morning after. Unfortunately, or should I say fortunately, I can't even let myself have a little bit because I'm preggo now. It's going to be awhile before I can enjoy a good beer.

    Ice cream before bed. A rare, but calorific expense I couldn't justify!
