    I don't really see foods this way. I meet my nutritional needs with things I enjoy. That's all the foods in my diary

    I don't have special treats or I do and it's every night, typically ice cream

    Nothing

    -My favorite "healthy" food that I eat almost every day is probably steamed broccoli. I just have a sort of love affair with broccoli, and I feel like it goes with almost any meal. I also love pizza and eat it pretty frequently (at least once a week). Not sure if that qualifies as "healthy", but it usually fits my macros pretty well. I often eat pizza and broccoli together! But I never put broccoli ON my pizza. That combo just doesn't work for me.

    - I don't really reserve anything as a special treat, but I guess one food I really like but rarely eat is pancakes. I typically choose a protein-heavy breakfast over a super carby one because protein keeps me satisfied longer. But every once in awhile I get a craving for pancakes that I have to indulge, and I always eat them with 100% real maple syrup, because yum. The imitation/artificial stuff just isn't the same.

    - I really haven't given anything up. Nothing is off limits. I just prioritize my nutrition, and if there's something I really want, I eat a moderate portion of it. :smile:

    I love breads. Especially those with fillings. Actually, any pastry. They are my trigger foods but I still eat them. I just have to boost my willpower to stop after a serving or two.

    oh you mean before :noway:
    Breyers rocky road ice cream
    an occasional double double with cheese from in and out (always had a hard fast rule against take out)
    Now it is the bunless cheese burger with onion and spinach leaf and the large cobb salad served at Sauces on trivia night.

    My favorite food right now is old-fashioned oats with a lot of cinnamon and some diced apples. Warm, sweet, smooth, with a little crunch. So, so yum :)

    No, after dieting. My diet includes chocolate every day. Chocolate is healthy. It’s got antioxidants, iron and fiber.
    Where is chocolate derived from? Cocoa beans – did you hear that – beans. Beans the magical fruit. Beans are a healthy source of protein. Beans burn belly fat.

    "At no other time has Nature concentrated such a wealth of valuable nourishment into such a small space as in the cocoa bean." ~Alexander von Humboldt 1769-1859

    Rice, I loved it before and I love it now. It fits in my calorie budget and I can do nearly anything with it.

    Favorite healthy meal: Eggs with spinach, mushrooms and cheese every morning
    Treats: Hmm. Guacamole maybe. Or something like zoodles. I eat keto so those things are kind of high carb for me.
    Gave up: So much, but it's for the better. Bread and pasta were the big 2, but I really miss spicy tuna sushi.

    What is your favorite healthy food that you eat all the time? eggs, carrots, and lately cantaloupe

    What is your favorite food that you reserve only as a special treat? donuts/brownies

    What food did you have to completely give up? I haven't totally given up anything, but I'd say Chick-Fil-A and a few specific Chinese takeout entrees (the sodium's just not worth it to me)

    Rare beefsteak ( as often as possible)
    Lobster ( absolutely love it, but not often because of the expense)
    I give up nothing, just use some sense. Chocolate every day is a must.

    Favorite Healthy Food - Greek Yogurt and Raspberries

    Special Treat Foods - Baked goods, such as cake, cookies, donuts, brownies, pie, pastries etc.. (especially cheesecake). Ice cream, full-size candy bars, wine, hard liquor, salt & vinegar chips and deep fried foods (onion rings, chicken, fish, breaded mushrooms, shrimp, etc.)

    The only 'food' I've completely eliminated from my diet is regular soda. It's one of the reasons I gained so much weight. I love it, but I 'thought' I couldn't control myself with it. It's been almost a year now since I've had a full can/bottle of RC cola (my previous addiction). I tried a swallow of Hubby's a few months ago and it's way too sweet for me now. I prefer Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry these days and have one (occasionally two) every day.

    My favorite food right now is bulgogi. I haven't given up any foods just eat in moderation. Its hard for me to control myself around rice so I don't have it in the house as much as I used to.
