    Chocolate! Still is, in fact. Honestly, I think it's foolish to totally give up any food, especially if you really love it. Learning moderation is key. I have never stopped eating chocolate, cheese, meat, carbs, or drinking beer, and I've lost 50+lbs.

    Mine was, or should I say is, Dr. Pepper. I would drink multiple 20 oz. bottles a day. I have now limited myself to one a day and drink lots of water.

    Cheese, cheese is my biggest enemy. I can not control myself around it, and I don't know why. I actually opted to not buy any cheese anymore for now, because if I buy a block of it I can devour it all in one day, no problem, without even noticing it I'd eat away 1kg of cheese.

    And man, if it was a kg of yoghurt, or something else, I could live with that. But cheese also happens to be such a calorie bomb.

    I'm not going to give it up completely, but until I can moderate myself, I'll only buy very small quantities of it, or not buy it at all.

    Nacho chips and salsa..I used to be able to eat a whole bag in one day. How sad is that? I haven't had one since New Year's day.

    Pasta and DrPepper!

    Both of those are horrible but so damn good!

    Chocolate anything. Jelly beans. Still my biggest weakness. Nothing cake anymore because I'm gluten intolerant. But damn chocolate. I now limit myself to a few pieces of 85% if I have to, which is extremely yummy now that my tastebuds have adjusted :)

    Definitely cheese! Actually I keep using cheese like Philadelphia in the morning, or a little bit of goat cheese to cook with vegetables, but I have decided to stop having very goood (and stinky) cheese in my fridge! Haha I just can't resist it... at any time, and especially between meals... Sorry I'm French :)

    I'm a chocoholic. As a kid, I was allergic to chocolate but eventually outgrew it so I think that as an adult, I've tried to make up for it haha. I'm partial to dark chocolate, so now I try to get my fix with the Silk Dark Chocolate almond milk and occasionally a couple of squares from dark Hershey's bars.

    I was allergic to chocolate as a kid too, I out grew it also. it's also my addiction :)

    I love pizza! Especially tuna and onions and really hot ones with chili and stuff. But at the moment I'm not going out much and I've restisted buying them, so I haven't had a pizza in months! Yay!
    I used to do a lot of sports and when I went home really hungry I just stuffed myself with a massive pizza, so all the sport had absolutely no effect. God, how stupid I was.
    ;) I also loved milk and pudding, but I think I'm over that now...

    TWIZZLERS...raspberry...I would buy a big bag and eat them all within 10 mins...LOL.....now I have gluten problems...and guess what, wheat is the MAIN ingredient...LOL...I did find a gluten free version online and bought 5 pkgs,,, 2 1/2 oz each....one pkg satisfies my cravings...they are pretty good, but not as soft and chewy...but are OK....

    I haven't gone completely gluten free yet because I still have to have the test, but when I do, I KNOW I WILL MISS IT ALL...all my life I have eaten pasta and such...such a big adjustment...LOL

    Anything Salty! Chips are my biggest downfall. I've avoided fried foods for a couple of years but Chips are what I miss most. I gave up bread awhile ago and I feel uncomfortably full after pasta so thats not really to hard. Sometimes I'll buy a bag of sour cream and onion ruffles and I'll say to myself " ok you can do this, whats a few??" but the truth is I have a few, then say I can't handle it and walk the rest of the bag outside to the trash can. Gotta do what you gotta do! Lol
