    Since I'm in Contest Prep (1 week and 1 day away!!) I have to cut out foods, which I normally enjoy in smaller portions. After my Contest, we get a "cheat" meal which we plan out. I'm having a cheeseburger with fries, and a cinnamon roll for dessert! Woot Woot! :)

    I eat anything I want, but I miss being able to do that ALL THE TIME. without having to worry about counting it or excersising to make up for it. I was just talking with my sister about the way we used to eat, before we cared.


    BOOM. She nailed it.

    White cake with frosting- I can eat a whole damn cake pan.
    Cheesecake- one bite and I'm hooked and just want more and more so I avoid it

    I eat almost everything I love and just work it in; however, I can not buy Breakstones Lightly Salted Whipped butter or I will eat the entire pound in 2 days. I buy other "real" butters and I'm fine, but I mainly use light butter. It's just Breakstone's that I have absolutely no control over!

    I'm having homemade pizza tonight on pita bread - about 400 calories for the entire thing and it's gonna be overflowing with onions, peppers, mushrooms, pepperoni with lots and lots of cheese!

    None. If it was that important & enjoyable for me to eat, I still will eat it on occasion or in much lesser quantities.
    Other foods I "gave up" I lost all desire to eat so it's really no big deal, I don't miss them for an instant.

    Not a food, but I miss seeing food as just food and not calories...

    It feels like everything since I started calorie counting.



    lol that's funny, me too. All the sudden I am craving foods that I have never even had the desire to eat before just because I can't eat them.

    Why can't you eat them? Can you just not eat smaller portions?

    I still eat things I want sometimes, I guess I just miss eating them whenever I want and whatever amount of it I want.

    Me too. I sometimes miss the mindless eating I use to do. I also miss salt, and especially potato chips, which I still do have on a rare, rare occasion. I have high blood pressure so limiting my salt is necessary, sadly. Oh to go back to my teenage years when I put salt on everything, even pizza!

    LOTS of food. I have a ton of food allergies and can't eat anything with certain ingredients. Example last time I had dairy I ended up in the Emergency Department because I had sharp twisting pains for 6 hours non stop.

    For milk- I'm only aloud flax, hemp or rice.
    Cheese- Goat/Sheep only.
    Eggs- eggs whites aloud, yolk 1 x week.
    COMPLETE ELIMINATION: Almonds, barley, coconut, gluten, peanuts, rye, soy, spelt and wheat. Which is in ALOT of food.

    I'm going on month 4 and feel so much better, however...Do I ever miss marble cheese, pizza...all the bad stuff...It's forcing me to become a healthy eater or I'm in alot of pain...Bonus its helping with my weight loss!


    I'm sorry to hear that : ( Can you eat Feta cheese?

    Yes but only goat/sheep feta

    None.

    Feeling deprived is a gateway to binging and a sure fire recipe for rebound once you're "done".

    I guess for me it is just like you said, sometimes I just wanna pig out on some regular pasta or a big fat cheeseburger, but lately I have been craving all the good food but I want to over eat on fish and quinoa and steamed veggies and a good salad. Its wierd like Im tasting real food for the first time.
