I wouldn't take any of them out. Everything in moderation for the most part is ok.
If I had to give something up to succeed it would be alcohol. .0 -

Fruit. I rarely eat it as is.0

I could give up dairy. I am almost dairy free anyway, one of my kids is lactose intolerant, so we already do soy milk, soy yogurt (him), coconut milk ice cream--it wouldn't be that much of a change from what I already do.0
-
I would give up fruit. Since I'm allergic to most fruits anyway, no problem.0
-
Grains. The good ones are an acquired taste...one I haven't really acquired yet.
Dairy. I get almost none anyway, because if don't like it.
I'll give up fruit the day I die.0 -
Grains. They make me retain water. So....I rarely if ever eat them.0

Fruits. I have never cared for them for the most part.0

Grains - and this is coming from someone who likes most whole grains.
I would also say dairy, but I like cheese too much0 -
Fruit. I just don't like it. Too sweet.0

Other than having an intolerance or allergy, what's the point of eliminating a food group?
That said I have reduced my grain & dairy intake over the last couple years but I would never eliminate either one. I'm not a big bread/pasta person but enjoy rice, quinoa & oats. I have the rare glass of milk but love cheese & Greek yogurt.0 -
I'm not sure about the point of the question.
If a gun was held to my head, I'd eliminate dairy as it would be the easiest to substitute macro-wise. Also, I don't eat that much dairy anyway. A glass of milk a day. Cheese a few times a week. Sometimes I go weeks without eating yogurt. Butter would be the biggest deal there.0 -
Not sure why I would give up anything, but if I had to...grains.

None of them.
Jesus what a miserable life it would be. Plus you've got food types and a macro mixed into the same list. Good luck living without protein...0 -
Unfortunately the vegetables have to go.0
