Nope, not giving that up...

HereWeGoAgain7 · April 2013

So what is everyone's no-nonsense I will not give up this item no matter what my lifestyle change requests. I'll start with...

...COFFEE. I drink one cup of coffee/cappucino every morning and I will not give it up for any reason.

red wine!

MayaSPapaya · April 2013

Coffee Creamer. Yes, there are healthier options but I only use 2 tbsp of it and it fits into my calorie goal. :drinker:

Anything.

Everything in moderation.

This!

jeccawest · April 2013

beer... i will however limit it to only a couple on friday and saturday nights

and goldfish crackers.

Laurelthequeen · April 2013

Booze. I know that it's "empty" calories. I don't care. I love beer, wine, vodka, gin, whiskey.

I have severely cut back on my beer intake, and now only occasionally have a light beer when I want something fizzy, or will split a 22oz bottle of something good with hubby on special occasions.

Food.

Or drink.

bookworm_847 · April 2013

I agree.

I've found I can still have chips, but just a handful rather than carrying the bag around with me like a security blanket. I can also still have ice cream, but I put it in a coffee mug (on the rare occasion I eat it... I'm a fruit eater these days) rather than one of the big bowls.

All the foods (and drinks) that I like.

hot2def · April 2013

BACON!!!!! I have limited it to Sunday morning though!

just_fur_luck · April 2013

JESUS!!!! Not coffee!!! That's the one thing everyone SHOULD give up. Do you have any ideas how many calories are in a cup of coffee? Oh well..... You're just making things harder on yourself.

ImpossibleGrl · April 2013

The all of the everything.

HereWeGoAgain7 · April 2013

Lol do you work in my doctor's office? She insists that Coffee is the root of all evil.

just_fur_luck · April 2013

It's because it's so calorie dense.

I'm not giving anything up. I refuse to find myself in a situation where I am not allowed to have something. That is when I will start eating it and never stop. Dieting is what got me in to this position. I felt like I couldn't have anything if I wanted to lose weight, I'd fall off of the wagon because of severe cravings and gain 10 lbs.

If this is going to be my new lifestyle, I have to be able to have what I enjoy. I'm not saying I will have cake once a day, but I will have it once a month. And a bite of chocolate every few days. Maybe even a whole chocolate bar, but it will fit in to my daily calories.

That being said, I have changed some of my habits. I used to go to Timmy's and get a large steeped tea double double (7 weight watchers points- that's how I started my weight loss journey, on weight watchers) and I've now switched to a large steeped tea 2 milk and 1 sweetener for a total of 2 points. I no longer use the points system, but I have learned to like my tea that way, and it saves me calories and fat intake.

Ummm how many calories are in a cup of black unsweetened coffee? MFP logs it as 10...I hope I've not been duped this entire time!

Sleekit · April 2013

Kudos to everyone who said everything in moderation. Life is too short to deprive yourself of treats now and again. And also, to the original poster.... I too, would never give up my coffee. Sweet nectar of life!

mazmataz · April 2013

Also my never ever give up has to be cake! I would never eat a piece of chocolate, a potato chip or slice of bread ever again as long as I could still have my cake

HereWeGoAgain7 · April 2013

I agree with everything in moderation if there are no health reasons to give something up. I have recently been told I have lactose intolerance so giving up most milk products. I more meant this topic as a line in the sand to people who don't understand the calories in and calories out and insist that _____________ fad diet is the only way to loose.

april3888 · April 2013

Same for me.

doritosgirl · April 2013

DORITOS! I will never ever give up doritos! Nope not going to happen and I will never give up my once a month FISH AND CHIPS with well done extra crispy fries, coleslaw and a ceaser salad to start! Its the meal I would order if ever facing the electric chair as my last meal ( and with my short fuse it could happen, LOL).

I will also not give up my once a day 20oz tea with tablespoons of sugar and milk..

All of this is built into my eating and on the day I have fish and chips I eat superhealthy for breakfast and lunch and the day after.. with more water than I normally drink. I have yet to gain weight from that one meal.

just_fur_luck · April 2013

I thought it was closer to 4.

HereWeGoAgain7 · April 2013

Actually its because "coffee dehydrates you" and "women get breast cancer from coffee" and "it poisons your kidneys" and other reasons of that caliber.

AJL437 · April 2013

I agree!

JoRumbles · April 2013

I actually gave up chocolate about 6 years ago becuase I had a binging problem with that.

That aside, I am giving up nothing. Especially not CARBS. I love carbs. Those smug people on their low carb diets can keep them. I love bread and potatos and pasta and my mum's homemade cake.

thestrawberrysays · April 2013

I will still enjoy a glass of wine or beer every now and again, as well as a piece of dark chocolate.

Microfiber · April 2013

Exactly. I'm not giving Him up either
