    I still eat the same foods that I have been eating, just watching the serving sizes. I miss cheeseburgers, that is most defintatley my most favorite food, I think if I ate it though it would make me so sick to my stomach now. I ate a hashbrown pattie one day and it almost made me sick because it was so greasy.

    Hot Wings!

    Lots of 'em with beer!

    I miss hot wings too, but honestly I have been discovering some new recipes that both myself and my honey are SHOCKED are low cal, low fat and super yummy. I got a recipe off of the Hillbillywife.com website.....Toad in a Hole. I added fresh mushrooms, fresh tomatoes, garlic and cheese, I only made it with 3 Turkey sausages instead of 5.....I was really happy with how it turned out and even happier that my honey loved it....he can't wait to bring some to work tomorrow with him!

    I am learning that there are alternatives to my old favorites, and that I can eat what I love as long as I do it in moderation or find a healthy alternative to the preparation.

    I can make a grill cheese sandwhich for less than 300 cals with real cheese. Have it for dinner one night with peaches or a salad....you can still have that.

    GO GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • I miss pigging out on mac & cheese and pizza. I still have each every once in awhile but I definitely miss pigging out on both at the same time.

    I MISS BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was in Mexico traveling for business recently. Beer and tequlia are almost staples when it come to eating there. I just adjusted my other meals to compensate for high-calorie (delicious) beer and kept on target with my weight loss goals.

    I don't miss anything yet because I haven't deprived myself of anything. I cut out soda. It's been a month or so now and I tried to drink one a couple weeks ago but it was nasty.
    Of course I crave chocolate and will til the day I die, but I've made myself switch to darker chocolate or sugar free pudding.
    My Reese's will probably always be a weakness, but I can control myself now.

    Starbucks pumpkin scone 470 calories
  • Yep, I still eat a lot of the same things...just in moderation, plus switches like ground turkey instead of beef and turkey bacon/sausage instead of pork. I do, however, miss my Sheridan's twice weekly binges!!! Esp the White Wedding Cake Concrete!!!!! I haven't had one since like September!!! It's enough cals/sugar/fat for 2 days worth of eating!! Yikes!

  • Coca Cola. It is definitely my Kryptonite.
    But as far as food goes, Pizza, Hot Wings, Loaded Mashed Potatoes, macaroni..............................Ok that's enough!!!!!

    Did I mention Milky Ways?

    And Chicken Fried Steak?

    And Biscuits and Gravy??

    But really, I don't "miss" those things. Those things made me heavy, lazy, and unhealthy. They just tasted soooooooooooo good!!!!!

    gummy bears....not just any kind mind you...but the ones from Germany... I don't chose to eat them much anymore (can't recall when I last did), I do have pretty much whatever I like in moderation other than those. I realize they simply are like a piece of rubber in my tummy and not worth the cals or the feeling!:laugh:

    I miss soooo much... all the usual suspects, pizza, Mexican food, beer, wine... we've been really strict. I miss just eating out! We've only eaten out once in 24 days. But, the one thing that really killed me was when we went to the movies and I had to sit there and watch the movie without my popcorn and M&M's!!! TORTURE :explode: !

    Hey! I'm 1 of 5 Canadian Quality Correspondent Mom's!! I've got the whole low-down on McDonald's. Free trips, laptop and all I have to do is voice my opinion on what us Mom's who are health and fitness conscious have to say on how they can improve their food and menus, and find out through visiting places all the company wants to show us on the quality of the foods.

    Back to the question-I miss Nestle Tollhouse Cookie that you buy from their store. Chocolate Chip with icing-lots!!!!:bigsmile:

    OMG!!! you speak my language....
    Biscuits and Gravy,
    Pizza... any kind... the more cheese on it, the better,
    Deep fried BAR food.... mozzarella sticks,

    but the biggest "foods" I don't even allow myself anymore are..... COCA COLA and MIKE'S HARD LEMONADE

    I miss McDonald's french fries. A friend of mine took a nutrition class a few years ago and learned some scary facts about these little delights, so I've sworn them off for years now. But yummmmmm! I also haven't eaten beef in many years, but a cheeseburger sure would go nicely with those fries :wink:

    IHop. A big, goddamn platter of pancakes slathered in syrup, fruit, and whipped cream. Paired with hash browns baptized in ketchup, and sausage links. And coffee with three cream cups!
