    No judging... graham cookies dipped in cream cheese icing.

    Somehow I feel much better when I don't drown emotions in icing.

    Mt. Dew =(

    Every now and then I will have a few sips of Mello Yello but I can not have any Mt. Dew....if I had a sip, I would fall off this wagon head first into a big glass of Mt. Dew...lol

    It's been almost 2 months I think since I've had one and I'm not missing them anymore =)

    Haven't officially "given up" anything, but there is a lot of stuff I just don't eat anymore, or only eat very rarely. NOTHING is forbidden in my world, food wise. I just try to be smart about it. (Yea, I could eat that if I wanted to... I just don't want to).

    Sitting on my azz and doing nothing. Yeah, I don't miss it.

    Oh, you mean food! I haven't given up anything.

    I hadnt gone to Olive Garden in 3 years, went a couple weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised by their healthy options available. Breadsticks are still the devil though!

    I gave up Sodas two years ago. I missed them at first. Then, I would have one every 3-4 months, but now I honestly can say, I don't like them.

    Weird, I know. Your tastes change I guess.

    There are probably OTHER things I should give up (um, chocolate, bacon, cheetos.... to name a few), but don't and just enjoy in moderation. :P

    Pasta and bread. I could live off either one!! I still have them on occasion, but it's more of a treat and not a regular part of my diet anymore.

    Gatorade. I drank 20oz with lunch every week day.

    I gave up Chorizo hash for lent. To make sure I'm actually giving something up I've gone to the restaurant that serves it a few times and ordered something else. It's hard because it's so fricken yummy and I want it. It's been good because I've at least tried a few other things.

    As far as what I've given up during my efforts to get fit...

    I no longer put potato chips inside my tuna fish sandwiches. Everything else I have in moderation or I add extra workout time to make sure the whatever doesn't wreck my efforts. Oh, and the two times I had five guys in the last 14 months I got a single patty burger instead of the double patty burger. Still cheese and bacon and grilled onions but only the one patty.

    *weeping silently*




    I haven't given up anything. There are some things I have less of, but I still find ways to enjoy them. Because I enjoy them.
