    Condiments.. I have cut back on so many things i am not going to drive myself crazy worrying about using a bit of ketchup BBQ Sauce or soy sauce here and there. I'll still log it, but i don't stress over it.

    Real coffee creamer. The sugar free *kitten* has artificial sweetener that is bad for you and the fat free crap tastes funny.

    I'm a Coca-cola fiend as well! I used to drink one 32 oz a day, sometimes twice! I now just use it as a treat for days when I'm out walking around, no more just drinking it at home. My biggest problem, is my husband and I love junk food, especially Taco bell's things. We don't stop ourselves from eating it, we just pay attention to when we do eat it, and what we're eating and doing the next day.

    Lattes, both from home and from Starbucks. You can pry them from my cold, dead hands.


    How do I fit it in? Plan for it. Drink a smaller size. Use less sweet stuff in it.

    I haven't given up anything. I simply track calories. One good idea though..."All things in moderation."

    Good luck! :smile:

    I refuse to diet. It's a lifestyle change. I also don't see the need to give up on any one thing completely. no need to deprive yourself, everything in moderation.

    Hazelnut coffee creamer! I compensate by having a single coffee per day, instead of the 2-3 I used to drink. But I almost always want that second cup.

    This is sustainable over the rest of your life! (3 year veteran speaking here!) I'd give up if I thought I'd never have treats again. It's all a matter of planning, and a little self control!

    Wine. I usually will have it once every other week. I can't limit myself to just one glass....so when I have it, it's a total splurge.

    Meals out from time to time. It's too easy to just eat at home where you can control every calorie, but to not feel like your whole life is given over to it by having the odd meal out here and there reminds me I'm still part of the normal world!

    What is the one food or treat you refuse to give up?

    How do you control the amount of that item that you eat?


    I'm a huge Dr. Pepper fiend. I refuse to give it up completely, and whenever I try I'm completely miserable and feel deprived. I've been trying to cut back to only 1-2 a week. I drink sparkling water with natural flavor when I crave the fizz. I'm just curious what other people insist on keeping in their diets :-)

    Cheese! I eat some almost every day. I find that I have no trouble controlling my appetite since I cut out sugar and wheat (both are potent appetite spurs for me) and I also limit my total carbs to between 100-200 grams per day. I would have to force myself to eat if I wanted to eat my exercise calories back. I don't generally do that.
