What are your "no-no foods"?
Replies
-
Brussels sprouts! Nasty.
I don't drink regular soda because I never had it as a kid and I think it tastes gross. But I like a little Coke Zero every once in a while.0 -
No-No foods:
chicken - because I had a bad experience and associate it to dead bodies now, long story
turkey - reminds me of chicken
other meats that taste like chicken - see above
soda - I've never drank soda because the bubbles hurt my tongue when i was a child. I've tried sips... still can't do it.
coffee - I'm highly sensitive to caffeine. I had tiramisu once and didn't sleep for 48 hours. true story.
fruit smoothies - i'm fructose intolerant and a 5 servings of fruit all at once is just overkill
I dont like eggs and mushrooms, but i'll eat them if they're there ... :grumble:
Everything else, bring it on!!!! Some things are best in moderation, but you gotta enjoy life a little!0 -
Here's what I have decided to exclude from my diet:
- All junk food
- Pastries
- White bread
- Any meat besides fish
- Sugar
- Pasta
- Noodles
- Juice
- Soda pop
- Condiments (ranch, mayo etc.)
What would you list as foods that you no longer eat?
You'll lose quite a bit of weight in a short amount of time but after restricting for months you'll start to crack, which leads to bingeing (at least that's what happened to me!)0 -
None. I will limit certain foods like chips, but I will still eat them.0
-
I have a problem with binge eating, otherwise I'd eat anything too - there is just no moderation with me for some things.
- chips
- fruit snacks
- chocolates
- chocolate chip cookies
- any type of snack cracker
- macaroni and cheese (can/will down 2 boxes)
- sugary candies - the corn syrupy stuff
These are things that I have to avoid for my success! I'm doing pretty well without them, too.0 -
I try not to drink my calories either. Not because it's particularly bad but because it's too easy to take in a lot of calories when it's in a drink.
Good point. I do the same exact thing. It's tea (black), coffee (black) or water for me. I'm really, really trying to stop drinking diet soda. I know it's low-to-no calorie, but it's not good for you either. (at work so no sources, just google it if you really want to verify).0 -
The only foods I exclude from my diet are foods that I don't like.
Yep This....... :drinker:
Same here. I do however, skip the packaged/processed stuff.0 -
The very reason I'm counting calories is because I like all kind of foods including your list, so there's no "no-no foods" for me. Everything with moderation.0
-
No white rice
No ...uh... that's about it, and only because I like the taste of brown rice better.0 -
All food. I only eat air from the mountains because it is pure.0

I hear sunshine is a good addition to that air diet....0 -
I don't have any no-no foods, I choose not to label foods. If it fits into my day, I eat it.
exactly. this is how weight loss happens. if i want a cookie. i eat a damn cookie. Just not 5 and not every day after every meal. Moderation and portion control are the key. Although I don't really drink soda anymore and am Gluten/Dairy free due to health reasons, it doesnt mean I don't indulge every once in a while. It's just important to make sure the majority of your diet is clean.0 -
My no-no foods are french fries, chicken nuggets, doritos, and white castle.....because when I eat them I go wayyy over my macros lol.0
-
I never fully eliminate anything. It's likely to crave your fave foods time-to-time. Eat them in moderation or you may binge eventually! Good luck!!0
-
Fried Butter. Anything else goes. Oh and shrimp which I'm kind of allergic to but I still sometimes eat that.0
-
deep fried chicken feet.
Never had them but they are on my nono list....short list.
I love food all of it...yummy yummy food.0 -
i certainly have foods i avoid because i hate them (meat, eggs) and foods i avoid because they trigger me (fresh baked breads, anything peanut butter and chocolate) and foods i don't eat because i don't think they're healthy enough/filling enough to spend the calories on (chips, full fat dairy) and foods that physically make me feel bad (wheat in general) but NOTHING that i would say i completely exclude from my diet.
i might just have some deep fried sweet and sour chicken for dinner, because it's super yummy and i've wanted some for like a week. i just won't follow it up with a big bowl of ice cream and a snack of sour cream and cheddar cheese chips.
oh, and i'm from 'merica and i have always thought twinkies and pop-tarts are nasty. so0 -
nothing
I include all the foods I enjoy in my diet.
agreed.
I don't eat mushrooms... because I don't like them.
And eel- I refuse to eat eel.0 -
While I was losing weight I didn't have any off limit foods. Now I'm in maintenance and have recently switched to a whole foods, plant based diet. I no longer eat-
meat, except for a 3-4 ounce local, grass fed steak a couple times a month when we go to the in-laws
dairy
eggs
processed snacks/food/condiments-usually things that have more than 3 or 4 ingredients
fast food
'white' bread, rice, pasta etc. Stick with whole grains now
calorie beverages, except for tomato juice in my green smoothies (a natural blood thinner-to help prevent more blood clots)
candy, except for a square of 85% dark chocolate a couple times a week
I enjoy eating the way I do now, and I have no cravings for the things I've cut out0 -
I don't exclude anything but I know certain foods are a baaaaaaad idea to start eating.... Doritos, chips and salsa, cereal (dry), popcorn0
