I'm all for not depriving yourself, but some foods no longer appeal to me even though I used to really like them! Here are a couple things that I just don't really like anymore (notice that ice cream and chocolate are NOT on this list!)

Doritos
Cream Sauces
Nacho Cheese (like from the movie theater)
Ranch Dressing
French Fries
90% of cakes

    I would say...

    80% of the stuff on fast food menus grosses me out now
    Not a fan of super sugary drinks anymore like soda, juices, all that...
    Things like cakes and cookies aren't tempting anymore
    Most deep fried stuff makes my stomach sick now

    I do still love chips but I almost never have them...and dark chocolate, you won't find me giving up my chocolate!

    I'm not as into chocolate as I used to be. I can take it or leave it now. Same for sweets. I will never so no to an ice cream from the local ice cream shop though, or chocolate eclairs or Krispy Kreme doughnuts! My weaknesses!

    KFC Chicken, I get sick every time :sick:
    Cheap sweets like kids bear paws cookies. I would rather spend my calories on something nice and home baked
    Muffins because they are so calorie dense
    White bread

    Soda - even the diet stuff, I never drank full fat but blerghh....

    Takeaways - I used to eat them all the time (1+ a week) and I've had 2 in five months.

    sub-par desserts of any kind. If I'm spending my calories on sweets, they're going to be very decadent. Store-bought dry cake with plain buttercream just because my coworker had a birthday? No thanks. Triple layer chocolate cake and cheesecake delight from the Cheesecake Factory? Yes please!

    Sugary drinks
    Fast Food
    Deep fried food (I still like French Fries, but will choose salad 95% of the time.)

    Soda, 99% of sweets, butter, and white bread have no power over me anymore. Though I was never a huge fan in the first place.

    I still enjoy what I LOVE. Gimme pizza, fries, and ranch dressing. In moderation.

    I no longer crave Deep Fried Foods, French Fries.

    Any Deep Fried Foods
    Pizza
    Nachos
    Cakes
    Pies

    Still need my Dark Chocolate 1 square of dark chocolate no More
    Love my weight watcher Ice Cream Bars
    My husband every night has Carmel Ice Cream with Carmel topping and Whipped Cream.
    But with my weight watcher bars, it no longer bothers me.

    Anything fried in lots of oil makes me gag - I have a radar for cooked fats and bad carbs
    Highly processed foods -yuk
    Sugary Food - yuk

    PS: Sneaked a spoon full of Chocolate frosting from the can this weekend at a friends house. I thought it tasted like chocolate Crisco...I nearly hurled...wow, I used to eat that stuff by the can...

    Doritos for me too! I used to crave them constantly, now the thought of them makes me feel sick. I can't do moderation with them, I'd eat them until I was ill. Now that feeling is all that I can remember.

    All of them
    I don't ever, I mean ever buy my own junk foods.
    Plenty for the husband.
    I dont even eat special K i bought snack bars but for 90 calories i would prefer 60g tuna and lettuce to be honest !
    The sweetness just makes my teeth rotten and unhealthy foods leave my stomach heavy and bloated for days afterwards! Not worth the after feeling.

    Junk food is like a hangover to me now, takes days for my body to adjust and I always pinch a few chips off my husbands plate or a piece of pasta or a bite of a burger but that one bite usually makes me go "urgh smells good but how do you eat that its disgusting" - The smells still get me. Chip shop chips, CAN NOT RESIST however i had 2 the other day and felt so ill straight away.

    Ice cream, chesses, donuts, cakes, lotsa other stuff but
    I do make allowances but only on a slim margin of the
    stuff I cut and not too often.

    None. Some are on hiatus until my HBP magically goes away when I hit 125# (or my doctor realizes I should be taking medication for it rather than have the blanket "you're fat" diagnosis).

    I haven't grown out of any foods. If anything I eat more fast food now than I did as a kid.

    I still eat small amounts of things they are "not good"...pizza, icecream, chocolate...even the odd bit of candy (jelly bellys and wine gums)

    However, deep fried anything will do a number on my tummy now so I don't even bother risking it.

    I was never a pop/soda drinker but I used to drink tons of juice and have cut that out now. Water and tea, water and tea!
