    I wouldn't swear to anything for life. I'm too old to think I can predict the future, lol.

    Parsnips and liver. Swore off them when I was a kid. Haven't touched either since LOL.

    Maybe cheesecake. I haven't had it in decades. Everytime it's offered or available I find I deem it not worth the calories, even though I love it.

    I'll happily pass on lutafisk forever. :wink: In all seriousness, I should swear off ice cream, I'm sensitive to dairy and the momentary pleasure isn't worth the discomfort later.

    Shrimp and shellfish. I am deathly allergic to them.

    Soda and fruit juices. Probably alcohol too. I love cheese burgers so much more than pina coladas.

    I had to swear off foods I can not control myself around. That includes peanut butter, and many processed snacks like a moon pie. Other foods I will only bring in the house on a few occasions and in very small quantities - such as ice cream. (I've allowed myself ice cream like 4 or 5 times this year.)

    Well, apart from things I don't like, obviously... sodas, juice and alcohol. Just not worth the calories to me anymore. Heck, even on my IDGAF days (Christmas, birthday, Thanksgiving), I don't drink calories at all.

    Otherwise? Nope. I eat less of the high calorie stuff I love, but I still have it occasionally.

    Nope.. I live and maintain a healthy diet so I can enjoy things. I'd never swear off anything

    Only foods I do not like to eat. Life is too short to eat foods you don't like.

    Sashimi. Anything tartare. Sweet potatoes. Okra. Calamari. Gator tail. Tripe. Liver/heart/lungs/brains/tongues.

    Anything else is fair game. Except grasshoppers/crickets/ants etc. Covering them with chocolate does not help.

    French fries, sweet tea, any fast food breakfast sandwich, fried foods and second helpings

    Tequila. Multiple times.

    Sambuca for me.

    I've not sworn off anything, but I've no idea why anyone would want to eat poppadoms or edamame beans, so others are welcome to 'em.

    I should clarify that there are foods that I feel aren't worth the carbs and/or calories, but I haven't sworn them off forever. I don't bring chips in the house but I did eat 2 Doritos chips once in the past year. There are quite a few things that will now be a very rare treat.

    Meat, dairy, eggs and anything related. I couldn't imagine contributing to the cruelty of animals as well as cruelty to my health. I havent felt so amazing in my life and I use to be so sick in the hospital once a month. Good riddance!

    Other than foods that contain Gluten due to a Celiac Disease diagnosis 3 years ago, no. Now that I'm in maintanence, I eat everything I always did.

    Boiled eggs. Obviously not for health/diet reasons. I just hate them.

    I've not sworn off anything I like, but instead make them fit if I really want it, except for things that could make me ill. I could also become ill if I'm off my macros for too long or eat wheat products. I really miss Ryvita.
