I understand portion control and cutting back. Is their any foods you refuse to intake anymore. For me its
Idolize salt
Regular soda
Twinkies
is there a unique way you go about not consuming?

    Find healthier tasteful alternatives. It will be hard at first but eventually it'll become second nature. I haven't had a soda in over two years. It really helped me increase my water intake and lose weight. I added (and still do) water flavors to make it flavorful.

    I have foods I will not eat that I used to, but it is easy for me because when you have not had something super sweet, for example, in a while, and you try it again, it tastes like cr@p. That bakery doughnut tastes like grainy sugar and nothing else, NOT enjoyable at all, so why bother. I have found that after being off of the crap I would eat "just because" when I decided to have one as a treat, I no longer enjoyed it!

    The things that are over the top calorie wise that I do still like (like a good Cannolli) I can enjoy more because it is such a rare treat for me to have now :)

    Same here. My tastes changed. I look at food now as what can it do for me? There's always a big picture in mind that has made me feel good about trading such things as white bread for rye (gluten-free), or a snack bag of Doritos for a clementine. I keep a bag of flaxseed nearby to snack on rather than a bag of walnuts, not that walnuts are bad for you. They aren't. But I would eat a 1 lb. bag at once. Turns out, I really like the crunch and nuttiness of flaxseed. I just had to find a satisfying substitute.

    I refuse to eat foods I don't like...like brussell sprouts and raw cauliflower. Steamed cauliflower is okay, but that's it. No cauliflower pizza, ice cream, or mashed potatoes. Yuck. And I don't like those banana omelet a.k.a alternative banana pancackes. Yuck yuck.

    I will NOT eat liver and onions.

    I simply refuse. My mom used to make it when I was a kid and I had to sit there until I ate it. I just can't do it.

    There are foods that Iuse to eat that are so full of calories that are not worth it knowing. I literally would not enjoy eating them because i know.

    I don't refuse to eat any foods (unless it's totally gross) However I haven't touched oreos since I had a bad binge experience with them... xD trauma

    Yes, I refuse (for two weeks now) to eat chips and dip. I got in a weight loss comp and tried to figure out how many calories I was consuming and from where. I found that I don't just eat a few I have to eat a half a bag WITH DIP. I was consuming about 1500-2000 calories a day just in that. If it wasn't for my active job I would be much bigger.

    I refuse to eat foods that aren't tasty. Why waste my calories on gross foods??

    I refuse to eat mayonnaise, but it's because I've always refused to eat it. I eat some foods less frequently than I used to, like salt and vinegar chips and cinnamon dolce frappachinos because they aren't usually worth trying to fit into my macros, even though I do love them.

    Nicely put. Something the OP can make use of.
