What condiments do we need avoid?

I think it's more about the quantity. Switching to 1/2 T. of mayo would have been around 50 calories...not so bad, eh?

Also...Are you sure that you truly had 2 T. of mayo? That's quite a lot, especially with "a few french fries". Unless you were soaking each fry completely in mayo, I doubt you ate 2 T. Maybe more like 2 tsp? That's a huge difference, if so. Don't cheat yourself ;-)

For me personally this is a challenge with certain things, but it is worth it. I used to waste a lot more condiments too. Now I put it on my plate by portion and find that it is enough, but I don't have any left on the plate to wash and waste.

Good luck!

You don't need to avoid any. It just really helps to know what you are consuming to help you decided how much. If you need to conserve calories you can always use less if you need to.
I use mayo to help hit my fat macro.

I use the Smart Balance Omega Plus mayonnaise. It's 50 cals a tbsp and its made with unsaturated fats.

Luckily I'm not much of a condiment person. I've never liked ketchup all that much and I only use mayo if I happen to be having tuna. On wraps I started using ranch or caesar salad dressing and on hamburgers or hot dogs I use a Kraft hickory BBQ sauce. Try not to eliminate the things you love, just find a way to eat them within your calorie allotment. You'll find much more satisfaction that way.

I use the the condiments I like. I examine the caloric count and measure out the amount I'm willing to allow for that condiment. In actuality it takes very little of a condiment to enhance the flavor of something. When we don't measure we will eat a lot of unnecessary calories. When I say unnecessary I mean we eat more than was necessary to enhance the flavor. So a salad with 3 tablespoons of dressing tastes no better, than a salad with 1 tablespoon of dressing, but there is at least a 100-200 calorie difference.

So use the ones you like, try experimenting with others just to give you variety. You may find there are those you never or rarely used that you like. This will help make your lower calorie intake interesting and inviting and will help motivate you to stay with it.

I add Sriracha sauce whenever I can, even mixing it in mayo or ketchup to do the proverbial "kick it up a notch".

As said earlier, 188 isn't THAT much, depending on your daily goals (and did you measure that out? 2 TSP is 1/8 cup, sounds like a lot?), but if you want to cut back back on the mayo and fat, adding in something else with more flavor can be a good option.

I don't avoid any.

But when I'm calorie counting I tend to eat Miracle Whip Lite instead of Miracle Whip. And I eat mayonnaise less. I've been having Avocado on my sandwiches lately and it's pretty awesome.

Become a mustard fan, you can get multiple varieties of mustard very cheap and with dramatically different flavorings. It grows on you.

Same goes with hot sauces, Franks adds some heat while the Tabasco jalapeno flavor adds just a bit sour kick to anything.

I avoid everything else, saving the cals for something better.

I eat whatever condiments I like and account for them. It is largely about quantity and adjusting your quantity rather than avoidance. Things like mayo are going to be more calorie dense because they are made with oils which are calorie dense. Also, do not confuse caloric density with nutritional value...there are any number of foods that are very calorie dense but also very good for you and nutritionally dense...conversely, there are any number of low calorie foods which provide very little in the way of actual nutrition.

Mayo can be a good source of healthy fats in a well balanced diet...and it's good...

The only thing I've stopped using is regular mayo, swapped with Kraft Light mayo if necessary. Everything else is fair game in moderation!
