I blame the Jalapeno Popper. 230 cals per 3 poppers... I used to eat a whole box of you. That's about 16 poppers in one sitting. about 77x16=1232 calories. Goodness gracious. I would do that about once a week.

    Chocolate. I used to eat it every day. And smoking, because I gave up sport while I did it since I couldn't run.

    Any and all fast food. I would eat McDonald's twice in a day sometimes! Also, regular coke..I've come to love diet though.

    I eat fairly healthy foods and always have. I've not really been overweight, but as I've gotten older I had started to creep up and I wanted to nip that slow-fat-creep in the bud. It's not one specific food that was a problem, just the amounts of it! :laugh:

    Chips, m&m's, and soda, I used to eat/drink a lot of that, nothing crazy on a daily basis, just that it all adds up.

    Beer. Prior to beer, I ate fried chicken, chocolate, even wine and other liquors. I was still thin. It wasn't until I started drinking beer seven years ago that I gained weight.

    None. I blame my desk job and lack of activity.

    Lost over 60lbs and didn't give up any food that I like.

    I was going to say all of the above. It would probably be safe to say all of the below as well. I guess that means I should blame myself and not the food?!?!

    Used to be fries but have given them up mostly for chips and salsa. I love salsa if only it tasted good by itself I would be golden.

    Too much of all of it. I love food. Junk food -- chips, snack cakes, candy.. were the worst. I have better control of it now but I have to watch myself still... I don't crave the junk food nearly like I used to though.. Now it is like a mouthful of nothing. I prefer nutrition.. >But it still has to be in moderation.

    Better Made Barbecue Chips, the family size. I used to buy three bags and eat them all at once.

    Cheese. My mom put it on EVERYTHING when we were growing up, and she didn't put a little bit; she put a LOT. I LOVE cheese and I started out putting it on the way she did- tons of it, on everything. Now, I've had to learn to use replacements like avocado or laughing cow cheese to give me the taste and texture that I crave. I still eat cheese on occasion, but nothing like I used to.

    List is huge!!! Bread, pasta, pizza, CHEESE... Although, I noticed I gained my most weight when I ate at restaurants. I ate at restaurants almost every day.... Glad those days are over with!

    I don't blame food for making me fat, I blame me for eating the food, too much of the food, and doing nothing to offset eating a ton of the food.
