Me too...on both. Although, I can't say I have completely eliminated but having none for now. I have had one Coke since I started and asked them when they brought it not to refill it.

no more sodas for me
i haven't had one in 3 years and i didn't even realized it until this thread O_O0 -
Mushrooms.
Or at least I try to eliminate them. Restaurants keep wanting to add them to salads and vegetarian dishes as though they are a vegetable and not a fungus.0 -
Hell yeah,
I am trying to eliminate nuts (peanut butter/almond butter) because i am totally obsessed with them! (Up to 3tbsp per day on worst case) but i go cold turkey right away , no matter how much i ate at that day i dont feel satisfied at all and ended up eating more than normal0 -
Soda.
Also, I was using a TON of creamer in my coffee, and while I haven't cut it out completely, I have started appropriately following the serving size now
Otherwise I am just being more conscious about serving sizes, but I'm not cutting foods completely out of my "diet" because that's not realistic to me in the long run0 -
I've given up soda -- both coke and diet -- although at a restaurant meal I will have a diet soda. I generally avoid breads and pasta. I cut red meat back to two times or so per week. I have not had any fast food in over 2 years.0

Ice cream, buttered popcorn, cakes, biscuits, blueberry muffins, hard cheese, coconut & coconut milk, grapefruit, chocolate, pastry........what do I really miss? cheese, cheese, cheese!!!!!!!!!!!! If I was just losing weight I could eat my favourite no no's as a treat in moderation but 'he who must be obeyed' [my doctor] says Nooooo because I have high cholesterol....booooo!!0

Full calorie coffee creamer, it was too big of a calorie hit. I have not been able to figure a way to make five guys fit into my day, so i suppose you could say i eliminated it.0

Anyone else cut anything out totally?
I cut out fizzy drinks as was drinking them constantly and I no u can get no sugar ones but found my diet would be better without and with water instead so havnt drank any since started my diet0 -
Just asking - is coffee creamer in liquid or dry form? From reading these boards everyone seems to use creamer instead of milk in US.0

Creamer comes in dry and liquid form. I myself prefer liquid as the powdered stuff just tastes nasty to me. I occasionally use milk, but I mainly use my creamer. (Caramel Macchiato or White Chocolate Mocha, anyone?)

When I say "cream" I mean cream. Half-and-half or heavy whipping cream, depending on what's in the fridge.0 -

I switched to black in my early 20s, but in college I used milk with my coffee.
A friend of mine still does, and restaurants sometimes have a surprisingly difficult time with this and will bring cream or half and half despite her request for milk.0 -
Other than 1-2 cups of coffee a day, I drink water. I like food too much to waste calories on a beverage.0

In college, I used to go through so much soda, I'm honestly surprised that I'm not dead and/or diabetic. I would have it at my desk and not even think about grabbing one. I'd go through 5 or 6 12-packs in a span of 12 hours or so. I noticed one day that when I would go home between semesters, I wouldn't drink any soda. No craving, no anything. So, I decided about 6 years ago, no more. I haven't had a single soda since.
I also used to have fast food(McDonald's/Taco Bell/etc) at least once a day. About 9 weeks ago I cut that all together. Now the only fast food I eat is a 6" sandwich from Subway.
I've also started weening myself off coffee. I've gone from 4 cups(with creamer/sugar) a day, to 2(black) a week.0 -
I gave up baked goods and cheese. I am over the baked goods. Got a handle on that. But I miss cheese. And to me the fat reduced cheese is like plastic, so I treat myself with a tablespoon of Parmesan Petals over my huge bowl of veggies. The Parmesan flavour helps me cope! Still trying to figure out how to make a lasagna which I have been dreaming about..... Without too much ooey gooey cheese!0

I prefer to find alternatives or swaps instead. For example when I started in tracking I realized how much I was really adding into my morning coffee. So I did a little research and found a great and much healthier creamer option.0

I've eliminated meat. I'm a vegetarian and I don't really like meat and I have ethical issues.
I've also eliminated Swiss chard. It tastes like dirt. I like most other leafy greens, though.
Ha I am not the only one that thinks that Swiss chard was never meant to be eaten by humans? I love veggies with exception of chard and okra.0 -
I've cut out all beef, pork, and red meat of any kind. Basically, any kind of meat that comes from a mammal I don't eat anymore.0
