    I like most foods but I guess I am lucky I just don't have a big sweet tooth. I can pretty much leave ice cream, cookies, etc at a small serving or not eat them at all. I also don't like drinking alcoholic drinks much. I know a lot of people struggle with those things bombarding them around holidays especially and that part was easy for me.

    I hate McDonald's and most fast foods. They make me really sick. I'm convinced fast food burgers are made of milk. I'm lactose intolerant, and McDonald's burgers send me to the washroom faster than a glass of skim milk. Gross.
    Have you had your gallbladder looked at/out? I used to have huge problems with all fast food and I thought it was my lactose intolerance, turns out I had a gallbladder full of rocks that would just get pissed when I ate fast foods.

    Ah, that's something to look into. Did you have a problem with fried foods as well, or just fast foods? I've only had a problem with fast food, or more specifically McDonald's. I know where my gallbladder is, and the pain for me is lower, more in my digestive track, as it is with my lactose intolerance. I've always had problems with severe gas pains from some foods, luckily inherited from both of my parents. I've had gastrointestinal pain so severe people have thought my appendix had burst on multiple occasions, but it always passes, and let's just say, I can feel the pressure releasing, which ever way it goes, so I know it's gastrointestinal.

    Crap, now I'm salivating all over my keyboard.

    Haha, oops, sorry!

    It's alright, I just made a nice BLT. Sorted myself right out.

    Fried foods (especially french fries, never got the fuss)
    Soda
    Crisps
    Cake
    Dessert, any kind. I really don't like eating sweet stuff after a meal

    Now if I could only add wine and gummy bears to that list I'd lose the weight in no time :p

    I'm glad I don't like Mcdonalds, KFC, Burger King etc. I just don't enjoy it at all so never eat at any of them. I'm also glad my children don't know they exist.
    I'm not a fan of Dominos either, although my husband is.

    I can take or leave cheese, potato chips, meat, all the crunchy salty snack foods. I do not hate them, but a bag of Lays will go stale with me before i finish it. I will have it for 2 months. I am OBSESSED with chocolate, any cracker or cookie, dried mango slices and protein bars. I am weird. I LOVE all nut butters too.

    I'm glad I don't like alcohol that much. I love pretty much all the high calorie stuff otherwise.
  • Fortunately I hate anything made by hostess and Little Debbie

    I also hate mushrooms of any sort. I could never get passed that they are fungi and they just look gross

    I was able to kick my Pepsi addiction

    I'm learning to have a different relationship with carbs (pasta, bread, grains)

    It's plenty of foods that I'm indifferent about:
    Mayo
    Alcohol (in general)
    Snack foods (except for a handful of chips now and then)

    I'm a sugar-holic and I am not afraid to say it. Currently I am learning to have a better relationship but, there's just no substitution for chocolate or ice cream that is satisfying.

    Why is this lucky?

    Because I would never entertain the thought that it would be fabulous in crusts, ice cream, or other monstrosities created thereof.

    It started with just Burger king. Then Ice cream, then all fast foods (particularly Chinese food), then fried foods, then rich foods, then eggs, and then I found out I had about a dozen small marbles rolling around in there. Until I went to the hospital it was all... How do I put it? Evacuation maneuvers and chemical warfare. It actually had to get pretty bad to get to the point where I had stabbing pains near my stomach and in my right ribs and the doctors were like.. hmm gallbladder? I think that's why I didn't figure it out for so many years, it was almost the same symptoms as my lactose intolerance.

    I don't like pop or anything carbonated. I don't know if that makes me lucky or less gassy. Maybe a bit of both.

    Alcohol. I don't dislike it exactly, but I've never been in the habit of drinking at home or with meals. If we go out, I will have a few drinks, but it's not a daily or even weekly thing that I have to fit into my calories.

    Sweet drinks of any kind. Blergh.

    I forgot to add that I don't like fizzy drinks (soda) and I don't really drink alcohol. I used to when I was at university though. I think I had enough then to make up for the rest of my life lol.

    Lucky not to like steak? Blasphemy! I like mine somewhere in-between rare and blue. Just give me a cow, a knife and a fork and I'm good.

    Ooh I just remembered, I hate ranch. Vile stuff. That's got to be fairly calorie dense, yes?

    I am so lucky I have bland taste buds and don't like dressings / sauces etc.. So all my salads and veggies are just plain boiled. I love top deck chocolate though... Also totally have to have boiled eggs everyday 2 to 4 of them

    Oh where do I start.. I don't like quite a variety of calorie rich foods.

    I second soda. I drink it every once in a while, but only diet soda because I can't warrant spending calories on something that I don't even like that much.

    Alcoholic drinks in general. I may have a beer .. about 2-3 times a year but that's it.

    Doughnuts. I used to eat them just because they're "there". Now I don't touch them and don't even miss them because I don't even like them that much.

    Red meat. No amount of steak or ribs food porn will entice me enough to eat it.

    Chicken thighs and wings. Pretty much any kind of poultry that isn't skinless chicken breast and any kind of meat that isn't disguised beyond recognition.

    caramel popcorn or any sweet popcorn.

    Bacon, any type. Pork of any type - unless processed beyond recognition.

    Salo (cured pork fat)

    Gravy.

    poptarts.

    Flavored coffee or high calorie coffee concoctions. I've always had mine black no sugar even as a 300 pound person.

    Anything "sweet and spicy".

    Shrimp, or any seafood other than fish for that matter. I also hate all kinds of sushi.

    Lunchables.

    Peanut butter cups.

    Anything KFC.

    The list goes on...

    I dislike all fast food except pizza and even then it has to be a more upmarket pizza joint. I wasn't raised on fast food and it all tastes gross to me. I also don't like soft drink (soda) and I'm not much into alcohol either. I sound incredibly boring haha but it makes losing weight easier.

    im not a huge fan of ice cream. ill eat it on occasion, but its pretty rare (i actually know ill have some today cause the church will get me some for taking pics LOL i guarantee someone shows up with an oreo blizzard for me during the day) and i dont mind on those days, i spend the entire day walking in circles in the gym, so i dont worry about it too much.

    I guess I'm lucky I've never been a big drinker. . I've been good at limiting my sweets to one or two pieces at a time though.
