    Grilled cheese and homemade quesadillas, which I used to eat almost every day for lunch.... cheese is just so high in calories! I still have cheese when I really want it, but having meals of mostly cheese/bread just isn't doable for me anymore.

    I've also given up lemonade and almost all liquid calories, but I was never a big soda drinker anyway. :)

    I haven't given up any particular food or food group. I've given up eating huge portions of food. Everything in moderation!

    I didn't really give up anything. But I'm way more sensible about what I eat as far as portions.
    I eat mostly veggies for lunch in order to allow myself whatever for dinner.

    I've cut way back on wine and beer but could never break up with it permanently. We get along way too well.

    The 1 thing I gave up, and miss the most was/is?

    Mountain Dew


    you?

    Out of all the things I gave up, this was the hardest. 8 months ago, I was drinking at least 2 liters a day. In the past 8 months, I had one 20oz Dew.

    Me too.

    OP, if you like Mountain Dew (which tastes remarkably like urine), why give it up? Anything in moderation.

    Coke - Big Mac - Whopper- Chips & dip - Fries - Kentucky fried chicken - chicken wings - etc. , etc. , etc.

    But the big one was Coke. 2 liters + per day to zero in a week! Just like an alcoholic going sober cold turkey, I had the shakes that started around the beginning of week 2 and lasted for a little over 1 week.

    Soda and carbonated drinks (bad for the stomach, bones, and bod) as well as sweet alcohol drinks (Waaayyy too many wasted calories and enough sugar to crash me in a hurry), lol! :smile:

    Using the phrase can't.. when I feel like I can't do something, because I know now that I can even if it seems impossible.

    I strongly believe that Satan toasts those rye chips in his front lawn... they are sinfully good.
